CobClear
by Darkhax
CobClear lets swords with the Bane of Arthropods enchantment remove cobwebs much faster than with bare hands or ordinary blades.
What it does
A sword enchanted with Bane of Arthropods breaks cobwebs faster, and each level of the enchantment raises that speed by 20%. The mod targets a clearing task that otherwise takes a long time in cave and jungle exploration. Cobwebs also drop their sound behavior back in line with the vanilla bug fix MC-25233, so they no longer sound like stone when broken. CobClear requires Fabric API and Prickle on every loader it supports, and it runs on client and server, so both sides need it. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.19.2 and 26.1 – 26.3, under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only, and the code is open source.
Key features
Faster cobweb clearing
Swords carrying Bane of Arthropods destroy cobwebs faster, with a 20% speed gain per enchantment level.
Cobweb break sound
Broken cobwebs produce the correct sound instead of the stone-like sound from the vanilla bug.
Enchantment-based speed
The speed boost scales with the enchantment level, so higher levels clear cobwebs more quickly.

How it compares
Bane of Arthropods Addon is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license and published for 1.21.9 – 26.2, and it is not open source.

Cobweb Enchantment is open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 or later and covers 1.21 – 26.3, with the server required and clients optional.
