Excavator
Mine whole ore veins in one click!
Concept Origin
Have you ever use the Timber Minecraft mod? For those familiar with it, this mod allowed players to chop whole trees by simply chopping the bottom log. Excavator allows players to similarly mine ore veins by just mining a single block!
Features
This plugin is rather self explanatory. By mining a single block of an ore's respective ore vein, the rest of the ores in the vein are instantly mined and dropped as if a player had mined the ores himself. This is basically the equivalent of Timber but in mining form. Correct durability damage and such are applied to tools. If 10 blocks were mined, 10 durability points are added to the tool. This is meant to merely make mining not so monotonous.
Beware of the diagonal ores! No really, this plugin will mine those too and you may not notice it. So, it doesn't hurt to check for those ores still.

Commands and Permissions
Command | Permission | Description |
---|---|---|
/excavator toggle | excavator.toggle | Toggles the player's Excavator state to ON/OFF if he has the permission. |
Configuration
There is no configuration needed! By default, no one has any permissions so be sure to set them as you wish. Toggling your state allows you to enable or disable the ability to mine whole veins by mining only a single block.
Please test, report bugs, leave feedback, and give suggestions. Enjoy!
how do you add permissions to your server
I'm having a few issues getting this plugin to work with permissions i use simplyperms, I try to add it the way i add all of the other plugins i have, In game or in the .yml file i use excavator.toggle* in the text file, and it still says i don't have permissions for a example i also have the treefeller plugin, In game to enable it in perms i have to type /permissions group setperm admin Treefeller.* true and it makes this in the text file treefeller.*: true . So any help would be awesome.
Can you make this so that OPs by default have the permission? I find the lack of it really annoying, as I run a simple server where I am OP and don't want to have to mess with permission managers.

So, in whichever permissions plugin you are using give the default group the permission "excavator.toggle" and then everyone will have the ability to toggle their Excavator state by default. As a server owner you must alert people that the command exists either by yourself or through a help plugin (Excavator should play nicely with help plugins in providing commands).
That tells me nothing about how to let people use it, I want everyone on the server to be able to use it by default
@cole1195
The player needs to have the permission! Look above.
How do you let people use it?!?
@MegaAlenMinecraft
Yes, that's definitely one of the uses I had in mind; it's a great perk for VIPs/Donators!
I can use this on my walls server for vips :D
