Cobweb Miner
by person_coz
Cobweb Miner lets a player break a connected cobweb network in one action, mining diagonally adjacent cobwebs the way ore-mining mods clear veins of ore.
What it does
Holding shears and breaking one cobweb mines every cobweb connected to it, including cobwebs touching only at a diagonal, while vertical connections are left out of the chain. The effect comes from a data pack, so it works on servers and is limited to shears, which are the only tool that drops cobwebs. Server owners install it on the server, and players may add it on the client for the same behavior.
Key features
Diagonal cobweb chains
Cobwebs touching diagonally count as connected, so a whole web is cleared in one pass.
Shears-only mining
The chain runs only when the player holds shears, so the cobwebs drop as items.
Vertical connections excluded
Cobwebs linked only above or below each other are not part of the mined chain.
