Excavate – Mine Smarter, Not Harder
Tired of chopping trees or mining ores one block at a time?
Excavate lets you break multiple connected blocks instantly while keeping the experience completely vanilla-friendly and achievements-compatible.
This addon introduces a smarter way to dig, mine, and chop, processing each block with a short delay to keep performance stable and prevent lag during large excavations.
