How to make a tool mining 3x3 (Outdated)
Fri, 12/02/2022 - 02:49 (edited)

Hello everyone!

If you want a tool to mine an area of 3x3, you are at the right place! (You need to have MCreator with Entity direction procedure blocks.)

 

This procedure will check the direction of the entity and mine blocks in an are of 3 blocks by 3 blocks. For each block mined, the procedure will remove 1 durability on the tool.

 

First of all, you need to create your tool. I suggest you to create a pickaxe based tool.

After you have finished to create your tool, you will have to download this ZIP file. (Thanks to NorthWestTrees to fix the procedure.)

If you don't want to have to import it each time you make a hammer, you can add it to your own proedure templates (Into the Preferences, but you will need to restart MCreator).

When you have the procedure template, create a new procedure for the event "When block destroyed with tool" and import the main procedure. Then, create 4 other procedures for each direction (NORTH, SOUTH, EAST and WEST). Finally, come back into the main procedure and set the 4 procedures in the main procedure (Select the procedure for the 4 call procedure blocks).

Save the procedure and your tool, and it's done!

 

Some Informations:

  • Due to the way I made the procedure (and some limitations of MCreator), I didn't make the compatibility for when the player looks the sky or the ground. So, it will just break the blocks as for the NORTH, SOUTH, EASt and WEST.
  • I created the procedure with MCreator 2020.2, so you can have problems if you use older versions.
  • I created the procedure with Minecraft 1.14.4, but it should also works in 1.12.2 (but upgrade to 1.14.4 to be supported by Minecraft Forge and soon MCreator).

 

If you have a problem, write it into the comments, and I will try to help you.

When I spoke of the directions, i mean you have to create 4 procedures for each direction (like the procedures I gave you). For example, for the EAST and WEST, you will always have to use X and Y, and for the NORTH and SOUTH, you will always have to use Z and Y. You don’t have to use X, Y and Z into the same procedure because otherwise, it won't work due to the coordinates. X is only used for the EAST and the WEST, and the Z is only used for the NORTH and the SOUTH. If Intake your screen and I use only X, you will have to replace your Z by X. After, you will have to remake this procedure, but instead of use X, you will have to use the Z. Is it more clear?

Add conditions checking the block and if the conditon is true, you remove the block at the same block and drop it.

I don't know if this topic is long over, but thank you for the guide, it would be nice if there was a video for this topic but I have a small problem and a question. What if I wanted to create a pickaxe instead of 3x3 is 9x9? and next I have problems with Mcreator, probably he is known to everyone, it is about "the lack of internet error" even though I have been using Mcreator for a long time * Finally
It is after downloading Mcreator 2020.2 that I have problems with it, I used 1.9.1 and I did not have this problem anymore but I noticed that you need to download a new version of Mcreator for this to work 3x3 pickaxe creation

Hello

I am bad at procedures and I can't set it up. It would be much more simple if you would make a video tutorial or add some screenshots at least. I can't understand, what am I supposed to do. I imported the main procedure, others don't import

What am I supposed to do with that? I am so confusedProcedures
