About Glass Breaker
From ModrinthBreak all glass (and glass-adjacent) faster with a pickaxe
Usually glass breaks at a fixed speed, no matter what tool you use.
This changes that, so glass can now be broken faster with a pickaxe, as if it were any other block.
List of what the game considers "glass" blocks:
- Glass blocks + panes + stained variants (duh)
- Glowstone
- Redstone Lamps (1.20+)
- Sea Lanterns
- Beacons
- Conduits
Compatible with:
- Efficiency, Silk Touch, etc.
- Any mod that adds pickaxes, including pickaxe-like tools, like Pickle Tweaks' paxels.
- Any mod that adds glass, like Glassential!
(in all honesty it works in a kinda-hacky way but it should be fine ;) )
(if you're looking for a vanilla-compatible datapack equivalent, check out Pickaxe Effective Glass! note, however, that it only works with vanilla glass, due to the limits of the vanilla datapack system.)
