Hey, bet you never expected to see this enhancement request. I got a modded server running Mohist, and extra hard mode is one of the key plugins! I was wondering if there was a way to make my modded ores soften the stone around them as well!

(for now the mod works as intended, deleting the modded ores from the list)
((feel free to call me stupid if this isnt possible lol))

You should give up Mohist and switch to another server software. For example Paper or Purpur.
Mohist is a highly suspicious, even the developers of the EssentialsX plugin have urged not to use it and refused to support it.
