Summary
It has happened to me more often that I have accidentally removed more blocks with than I actually wanted to because my tools were too powerful. Therefore I have developed this mod, which adds a short cooldown after breaking a block when holding down the mouse button (if sneaking).
It should be pretty similar to the creative mode experience -> blocks can be mined immediately, but it only breaks around 3 blocks per second, when holding down the mouse button.
👉 This mod works on servers. But it only needs to be installed on the client side.
Config
Reversed Behavior: By default, Relaxed Instabreak is activated as soon as you sneak. If this option is enabled, Relaxed Instabreak will be disabled when sneaking.Delay: Cooldown after the removal of blocks in ticks. Default: 5 Ticks.
Preview
Note: I used a Netherite Pickaxe with Efficiency V and Haste II in the demo.
