Pickaxe
Clears veins of stone and ore in a configurable radius instead of one block at a time.
AOE Tools
Area-of-effect mining, digging, harvesting and hammering. AOE Tools removes the repetitive part of Eco's manual labour while leaving the progression, the calorie cost and the economy exactly where your server wants them.
The toolset
Five tools, one behaviour
Each tool clears an area instead of a single block, using the same predictable rules so players do not have to relearn anything.
Shovel
Moves dirt, sand and gravel in bulk. Terraforming stops being an afternoon job.
Hammer
Places and removes blocks across an area, so large builds and demolitions move quickly.
Sickle
Harvests plants across a radius while respecting regrowth and depletion rules.
Scythe
Clears crops and tall growth in wide sweeps — built for farms, not single tiles.
Fully configurable
Radius, shape, calorie multiplier and per-tool toggles all live in a single config file.
Balance
Faster, not free
Area tools are easy to get wrong. Clear a hillside for the calorie cost of one block and the economy stops meaning anything. AOE Tools is built the other way around.
- Costs scale with the area — calories and durability track how much you actually moved.
- Skill gates still apply — nothing bypasses the specialties a player has not unlocked.
- Property rights respected — an AOE swing stops at boundaries the player cannot build on.
- Admin controlled — cap the maximum radius server-wide, or disable any tool outright.

Smart Storage
