Config Option to let the Destructor Remove Bedrock

Describe your enhancement

I'm playing on 1.20.1 because not all of my desired mods have updated yet (thank you so much for making version 2 mod loader independent, I stuck with Forge and didn't touch Fabric, despite it having many tasty looking mods just because of this one mod, which is, I believe, the best Minecraft Storage mod system!), so I really wish I could make this very small feature request for that version of Refined Storage, but I'll request it for version 2 ahead of time for whenever I finally am able to make the switch.

From what I can tell, you cannot at this time allow Destructors to break bedrock (no, I didn't create a new Minecraft instance and install this mod all just to test this one thing, I hope you can forgive me?! I did do as much online-and discord-searching as I could to confirm things!). I know that bedrock is "supposed" to be indestructible, but there are too many valid reasons, especially in the nether, to want to break it. Thus so many players abuse glitches to break bedrock using complicated schemes and setups. To me, that seems...silly, since Minecraft is a modifiable game. If I'm willing to use a glitch to do something, then I'd much rather just have a "legitimate" modded way of accomplishing the same task (which is why I have a couple different bedrock breaking mods installed).

Which brings us to Refined Storage. If I'm most definitely going to be breaking bedrock, and will be, and would prefer to, use mods to do so, then I can foresee no better, or easier, way of doing so than with a Destructor that could simultaneously pick up and store said bedrock for me while also getting it out of my way. I know that Destructors briefly could remove bedrock before this behavior was patched, I'd just like for that to be optionally rolled back with a config setting for those of us like me that see bedrock breaking as a legitimate, reasonable, and perfectly normal player activity.

Again, if that could be added to the 1.20.1 version 1 of Refined Storage, you would be my savior and superhero, but I totally understand your reasons for not wanting to do so, thus if you could please add this to version 2, I will still sing your praises, especially when I am finally able to update to 1.21 (or some later version. Extra brownie points and complete acceptance of your godhood if version 2 could be added to Minecraft 1.20.1!!! Totally unreasonable, sure, but an utter utopian paradise, absolutely)!!!

Hi there, thanks for the suggestion, but I don't believe it's RS' place to be deviating from vanilla like this.

Hi, thanks for the quick reply! Though I must admit, I'm a bit confused by it...

  1. Minecraft is a modifiable game, and this is an intend game play feature.
  2. You are making a mod that fundamentally changes how I play Minecraft to a MASSIVE degree.

So...where in the world does 'vanilla purity' fit in that?!? I mean, I'm not even asking you do to something like add guns, which Mojang really doesn't like. And again, this would be a config option that only those players who "believe" in bedrock breaking would turn on, so, again, I just don't understand your position, and I would really like to!

If vanilla doesn't allow bedrock breaking, I don't see why RS would allow it. For the same reason, you need a Silk Touch upgrade to get silk touch breaking (matching how vanilla behaves as well).

Okay, thanks I understand now, though "I don't do config options because it makes my coding and troubleshooting user complaints more difficult" feels to me like the more 'real' answer. But hey, I can still respect that! I'd much rather have you continue making this amazing mod than giving up because of either of those two hassles!

New question, since this clearly isn't something that you will ever support, could I get some support in making that modification myself in like, an addon? I do know how to code in Java, though I haven't made a Minecraft mod, nor edited someone else's, so any help you could give would be greatly appreciated!
