Vein Miner is a Vintage Story mod by MorteX. Vein Miner lets a pickaxe break a connected cluster of matching ore blocks at once, with a sneak-key toggle.
Why this mod is worth installing
It suits players who want to reduce repetitive mining while exploring underground deposits. The toggle keeps normal single-block mining available whenever precision matters.
What Vein Miner adds
With a pickaxe equipped, Vein Miner can target a connected vein made from the same ore. Instead of breaking each block separately, mining one ore block processes the nearby matching blocks as a group.
The feature is controlled directly during play: hold the sneak key while mining an ore block to switch Vein Miner on or off. Pickaxe tooltips indicate the relevant control, so the mode can be checked without leaving the game.
The number of blocks affected by one mining action can be adjusted through the mod's limit setting, giving servers and players a way to balance speed against resource gathering.
