Minecraft DigArchipelago randomizer mod

Dig through layered Minecraft chunks, turn cleared layers and shop purchases into Archipelago checks, and receive tools, upgrades and optional traps.

How the game changes

Each generated chunk contains 192 layer checks, with 27 additional shop checks. The default uses one chunk; the chunk-count option supports up to 25.
Progressive tools, haste and efficiency provide mining upgrades. Excavation and reach improve digging coverage; temporary boosts and consumable rewards support mining.
Optional progressive chunks start with a restricted area and add World Barrier Expansion items to unlock larger sections of the generated grid.
Fossils found while digging fund permanent upgrades and item-shop purchases. Shop tiers are unlocked by Progressive Shop items.
Sixteen trap weights can be adjusted individually, including setting each to zero. The goal is to clear all layers in the generated chunks.

Requires Minecraft Java Edition and a dedicated Forge 1.19.4 server, which may run locally. The reviewed installer metadata selects Java 17 and Forge 45.3.15. No gameplay or installation execution was performed.
The World completion rule does not require expansion items although multi-chunk completion needs access to those chunks. After reconnecting, the layer counter also includes shop checks, which can cause premature goal detection.
Shop purchases made while disconnected are saved locally, but their pending checks have no identified durable replay path after a server restart. An already purchased check cannot simply be bought again.
Temporary excavation boosts can restore an older upgrade level on expiry. Several temporary effects use memory-only cleanup state, so restarting during an effect has incomplete recovery handling.
The client downloads Java, Forge and mod updates without verifying an artifact digest or signature. Default unschemed Archipelago connections can fall back to unencrypted transport; specify a secure endpoint explicitly when available.
APWorld contents and packaged mod resources match the inspected source snapshots. Full compiled-mod correspondence remains unestablished, and some dependency license notices are incomplete in the JAR.
