Dragged's Simulated Tree Chopper
by dragged
Dragged's Simulated Tree Chopper turns chopped trees into physics objects: a felled trunk and canopy fall as one rigid body under gravity.
What it does
Chopping a tree no longer removes it instantly. The trunk and canopy become a single physics body that tips over, tumbles down slopes and breaks apart log by log. Touching trees fall separately, and a shift-right-click lets a player drag trunks across the ground. A whole fallen tree can also be picked up and carried in one swing. The physics runs through Sable, so a felled tree keeps its momentum and collides with other objects.
The mod needs HT's TreeChop, Sable and oωo (owo-lib) installed alongside it, and it runs on NeoForge for 1.21.1 only. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Immersive Weathering: Renewed is optional and adds leaf piles that fall and topple, with a matching config toggle. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
Key features
Physical felling
A chopped tree falls over under real physics rather than vanishing, with its canopy following the trunk.
Dragging trunks
Players can grab fallen trunks with a shift-right-click and pull them around the ground.
Whole-tree pickup
A fallen tree can be picked up whole with one swing, instead of being collected log by log.
Splitting for big trees
Oversized trees are divided into segments on each chop, which keeps custom tree types from slowing the server.
In-game settings screen
Options for the master tree-physics toggle, natural or player-break filters and chop-counter behavior live in a screen built with owo-lib.

What the author says
Chop a tree and the trunk doesn't just pop, it becomes a real physics object. Watch it tip over, tumble down a hillside, settle on the ground, and then break apart log by log as you harvest it by hand. In-game settings screen via owo-lib: Mods → Sable Tree Chopper → Config.
