Live Ore Counter — Mining Tracker, Block Counter & SMP Challenge Plugin

Live Ore Counter by Orbitt Labs is a lightweight, server-side Paper, Purpur, and Spigot plugin that tracks every ore and resource you mine in real time using a clean Action Bar HUD—with zero client mods required.

Built for Survival SMP servers, mining challenges, speedruns, YouTubers, and streamers, it combines Fortune-aware ore counting, persistent player mining stats, custom HUD ore icons, and a built-in Mining Challenge Generator.

Key Features

• Real-Time Action Bar Ore Counter: Instant on-screen HUD counter showing your selected ore and live total as you mine.
• Fortune-Aware & Silk-Touch Smart: Counts the actual drops gained from Fortune I–III pickaxes while automatically ignoring Silk Touch ore placement exploits.
• Per-Ore Persistent Stats: Tracks every vanilla ore separately per player and saves progress across server restarts and reconnects.
• Built-In Mining Challenge & Goal Mode: Generate timed mining goals (Hard, Extreme, Insane, or custom targets) with milestone alerts at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%.
• Optional Custom Ore Icons: Includes an automatic, lightweight server resource-pack prompt that renders pixel-art ore icons directly in the Action Bar (with a clean text fallback if declined).
• 100% Server-Side (Paper / Purpur / Spigot): Vanilla clients can join and use every feature without installing any mods.
