Description
This addon preserves and restores the arena’s original creatures by temporarily moving them out of harm’s way, captures living entities inside the arena bounds (while excluding nearby out‑of‑bounds tamed pets), clears arena‑spawned mobs and waits a short delay after rebuild so blocks settle—no extra setup required; on first join it runs a few one‑time setup actions and shows a tutorial popup. Arena challenges support multiplayer: players who join are tracked as participants, a death eliminates and ejects you (you cannot re‑enter that challenge), runs continue until all participants are eliminated, and completion rewards are split among survivors with a small (~8%) lucky water bucket going to one eligible survivor; rewards drop at your feet if your inventory is full. The 1 Block+ mode uses tiered drops from common logs, dirt and sticks up to rare resources like diamond, obsidian, ancient debris and chorus fruit, with per‑player saved tier progression and pickaxe requirements (better pickaxes both allow ore/ancient drops and speed mining); press Read Tutorial on the first‑join prompt to open the expanded, versioned guide that explains tiering, pickaxe expectations, non‑spoiler hints about mobs/portals/rare outcomes, arena reward sharing, and the setup behavior — the refreshed tutorial will appear even for players who saw older versions, and the first‑join clear‑area retry continues while the tutorial is open and stops once you press Read Tutorial or Decline.
Mod Wiki
1 Block+
Quickstart
- Install the addon (
.mcaddon) and apply both the behavior and resource packs to your world. - When you first join, the addon runs a brief one-time setup and clears a small area around the spawn point automatically — no commands needed.
- A tutorial popup appears. Press Read Tutorial to open the full in-game guide covering tiers, pickaxe requirements, mob encounters, portals, arena rewards, and more. Press Decline to skip it.
- Find or locate the 1 Block+ block (listed under the Nature tab in the inventory). Place it at your feet or nearby.
- Start mining it with a pickaxe. The block regenerates instantly — keep mining to earn drops and advance your tier.
Overview
1 Block+ is a classic "one block" survival experience for Bedrock. You mine a single endlessly regenerating block that drops progressively rarer resources as you advance through tiers. The further you progress, the more valuable — and surprising — the drops become. Alongside solo play, the addon includes a structured Arena Challenge mode with multiplayer support, mob encounters, and reward sharing.
What It Adds
- The 1 Block+ block — a single placeable, infinitely minable block that drives the entire progression loop.
- Tiered drop system — drops scale from common resources all the way to rare endgame materials.
- Per-player saved progression — your tier is saved individually, so multiple players on the same world each have their own progress.
- Arena Challenge mode — a timed combat arena with mob waves, multiplayer participant tracking, elimination rules, and reward distribution.
- In-game tutorial — an expandable, versioned guide accessible from the first-join prompt.
How To Use
Mining the Block
Mine the 1 Block+ block with a pickaxe. The block respawns immediately after each break. Each mine advances your personal mine count, which drives tier progression.
- Better pickaxes matter. Higher-tier pickaxes (stone → iron → gold → diamond → netherite) both unlock ore and rare drops and mine the block faster thanks to a built-in haste effect that scales with pickaxe quality.
- You must have an appropriate pickaxe equipped to receive ore-tier and ancient debris drops — a wooden pickaxe won't yield diamonds or ancient debris no matter your tier.
Tiers
Your progression moves through multiple tiers:
| Tier Range | Example Drops |
|---|---|
| Early (Tier 1–2) | Logs, dirt, sticks, basic materials |
| Mid (Tier 3+) | Coal, iron, gold, occasional diamonds |
| Late / High | Diamonds, obsidian, ancient debris, chorus fruit, rare mob drops |
Your tier is saved per-player and persists between sessions.
Mob & Pet Encounters
As you mine, creatures can appear near the block on a rolling spawn schedule. Pets (cats and wolves) may spawn as companions before you reach higher tiers, with a built-in guarantee delay so you're not overwhelmed early. Mob spawns become more frequent at higher tiers.
Bow Drops
Every 99 mines you receive a bow, giving you a ranged option as combat encounters ramp up.
Portals & Rare Outcomes
The tutorial hints at mob encounters, portal events, and rare drop outcomes without spoiling them. Use Read Tutorial on the first-join prompt to learn what to expect at each stage.
Arena Challenge
Starting a Challenge
Interact with the 1 Block+ block to open the arena menu. Select the Arena Challenge option to begin. An arena structure is automatically built around the block.
Multiplayer Participation
- Any player who joins an active arena run is tracked as a participant.
- You cannot re-enter an arena challenge after being eliminated.
- The run continues until all participants are eliminated or the challenge timer expires.
Elimination
Dying during an Arena Challenge eliminates you and ejects you from the arena. Eliminated players cannot return to that run.
Mob Handling
- Creatures that were present in the arena area before the challenge are temporarily relocated to safety and restored afterward.
- Tamed pets outside the arena bounds are excluded from capture.
- Arena-spawned mobs are cleared between rounds, with a short settle delay after the arena rebuilds.
Rewards
- Completion rewards are split among all surviving participants.
- One eligible survivor has a small (~8%) chance to receive a lucky water bucket bonus reward.
- If your inventory is full, rewards drop at your feet.
Abilities And Mechanics
| Mechanic | Details |
|---|---|
| Block regeneration | Instant — the block reappears the moment it is mined |
| Pickaxe haste | Scales with pickaxe tier; wooden = no bonus, up to netherite = maximum speed |
| Ore/ancient drops | Gated behind pickaxe tier, not just mine count |
| Tier progression | Saved per-player via world data |
| Arena duration | Timed (1 minute per round) |
| Arena radius | 6-block radius wall, 4 blocks tall |
| Spawn roll interval | Every 20–30 mines at standard tiers; 15–20 mines at tier 5+ |
| Spawn cooldown | 1–2 rolls between spawns |
| Bow drop | Every 99 mines |
Progression And Strategy
- Start with at least a stone pickaxe. Wooden pickaxes are functional but severely limit the drops you can receive. Craft a stone pickaxe as soon as you get enough cobblestone from early drops.
- Upgrade your pickaxe as soon as possible. Iron and above unlock ore drops and mine noticeably faster, making mid-tier progression much smoother.
- Don't ignore pets. Cats and wolves that spawn early can help in later mob encounters — avoid accidentally harming them.
- In multiplayer, coordinate pickaxe tiers. Because progression and pickaxe requirements are per-player, each participant should aim to have an appropriate pickaxe before joining an arena run.
- Read the tutorial. The in-game guide contains non-spoiler hints about what to expect at each tier, portal events, and arena reward rules — it's worth reading before you hit the mid-game.
- Keep inventory space free before Arena Challenges. Rewards drop at your feet if you're full, so clear space ahead of time to avoid losing items.
