Ore Finder V1

The Ore Finder addon is a versatile tool designed to help Minecraft players locate ores and count blocks within a selected area.

How to Use the Ore Finder Addon:

Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Setting the Area

• Equip the Ore Finder: Hold the "Ore Finder" item in your hand.
• Select Position 1:
  • Stand at one corner of the area you want to scan for ores or blocks.
  • Right-click (or use the item) to set Position 1. A message will appear:
  • “Position 1 set: (X, Y, Z). Use the Ore Finder again to set Position 2.”
• Select Position 2:
  • Move to the opposite corner of the area.
  • Right-click again to set Position 2. You’ll see:
  • “Position 2 set: (X, Y, Z). Calculating block counts…”

> Note: The maximum area size is 50 blocks per axis (X, Y, Z). If the distance between Position 1 and Position 2 exceeds 100 blocks in any direction, you’ll get:

> “Error: Selected area is too large! Max distance is 100 blocks.” Reset and select a smaller area if this happens.

2. Finding Ores and Counting Blocks

• After setting both positions, the addon scans the area and counts all non-air blocks, including ores, between Position 1 and Position 2.
• A Block Counter Result window will display:
  • A list of block types (e.g., stone, iron_ore, diamond_ore) and their quantities.
  • The total number of non-air blocks.
  • Example output:

• Options:
  • Save: Store the results for later (see Step 3).
  • Close: Exit without saving.

3. Saving Your Scan

• Select Save to keep the ore and block data. A new window will ask for a name (e.g., “OrePatch1”).
• Enter a name and confirm. You’ll get a message:
  
  • “Block counts saved as ‘OrePatch1’. Sneak and use the Ore Finder to view saved data.”
• Saved scans can be reviewed anytime (see Step 4).

4. Viewing Saved Scans

• Open the Menu:
  • Hold the "Ore Finder" item.
  • Sneak (default: Shift key) and right-click to access the Saved Block Counts menu.
• Choose a Saved Set:
  • The menu lists all saved scans (e.g., “OrePatch1”, “DeepMine”).
  • Click a name to view its details.
• Review Details:
  • A window shows the saved ore and block counts, just like the initial results.
• Options:
  • OK: Close the window.
  • Remove: Delete the saved scan. Confirmation:
  • “Saved data ‘OrePatch1’ has been removed.”

Tips & Tricks:

• Ore Hunting: Focus on underground areas (Y-levels 0-60) for the best ore finds.
• Small Scans: Use smaller areas (e.g., 10x10x10) for quicker results.
• Naming: Use clear names like “DiamondZone” or “NetherOres” to track your scans easily.

Troubleshooting:

• “No saved block counts found”: You haven’t saved any scans yet. Follow Step 3 to save one.
• Area Too Large: Keep the area within 50 blocks per axis to avoid errors.
• No Ores Found: Try scanning deeper underground or in a different biome.
