XP
one of my players on my MC server noticed that the XP seems to be broken when mining full veins of ores like Coal, Lapiz, Redstone etc. You simply get almost no XP from breaking full veins. I logged on tonight to see what I could do to fix this but didn't really find much I could really do except that it truly was an odd problem that doesn't seem to be happening elsewhere. Any tips?

I have another server running the same version of the DP but it isn't spigot / geyser. I believe the DP did work in the past or maybe no one noticed it until recently. (I guess spigot could be the problem) I have tried different picks and different versions of the DP. Does Spigot just break that aspect of XP?

makes sense, paper time!
When switching to paper, you can also use the paper version of veinminer, which has more features :)
YES! I have been messing around with this and Purpur and paper. Although since I started on Spigot for the server, I think the issue with the xp is persisting
oh wait, it seems purpur isn't having that issue. In your opinion, what would you suggest?
If you also have this issue on Paper with the Veinminer Paper Plugin, this should be a bug. You can share your latest.log file (after encounting this issue) here and i'll look into it
The datapack will have those issues for sure
I am hoping I grabbed it right, I am not amazing at reading logs yet. Any tips?

Aww shux ive already shut my PC down. I will try tomorrow
No worries, i try to reproduce it anyways later today
Ran the DP on spigot, noticed the xp issue, then tried to convert the server to paper then purpur. I'm rocking AMP
the issue with the DP on spigot, etc is that the spigot code prevented
/setblock ... break to drop XP. I already opened a paper issue on this and thought they fixed it, but maybe they didnt.
Using the dedicated paper version (https://modrinth.com/datapack/veinminer/version/2.5.1) i can not reproduce the XP issuesModrinth
