Description
This mod completely changes how tree chopping works. There are 4 available modes:
Tree Cutting Modes
-
Instantaneous
Break a single log and the entire tree instantly collapses. -
Shift down
When you break a block, the logs gradually shift downward as you continue cutting.
(Useful if you want a more “balanced” feel but still don’t want to climb up for every log 😛) -
Fall items
Break one log and the whole tree falls down with a smooth animation. -
Fall blocks
Break a single log and the entire tree falls to the ground with a physics-style animation.


Configuration Options
The config file lets you customize several aspects:
- Define what counts as a tree (log blocks and leaf blocks).
- Choose which tools are allowed (add extra axes, enable all tools, etc.).
- Enable or disable leaf breaking.
- Option to disable the mod’s effect while sneaking (toggleable).
- Adjust falling speed depending on tree size.
- Decide whether tools take damage or break based on the number of logs.
- Keep tools at 1 durability instead of fully breaking them.
Requirements
- Fabric users: Requires Fabric API.
- NeoForge/Forge users: Cloth Config API is optional on the client and provides an in-game configuration menu.
