Falling Trees Physics

by PhilXD

Falling Trees Physics lets trees fall when a player chops them, using the physics library Sable.

NeoForgeServer required, client optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.21 – 1.21.11

What it does

When a player fells a tree, the trunk and its branches topple as a physical structure rather than vanishing block by block. The mod uses Sable, a required dependency, and must run on the server, while a client may add it. Files target 1.21 – 1.21.11 on NeoForge, and the code is released under the MIT License, so it is open source.

Key features

  1. Physical tree felling

    Trees fall as connected physics objects when players cut them down, instead of breaking in place.

  2. Configurable force

    A config option sets how much force is applied to felled trees, including when they are knocked down manually or by blasts.

  3. Player-triggered only

    The mod reacts to block removal caused by players, entities or explosions, and leaves other block events such as fire alone.

What the author says

This mod lets trees fall when you fell them. It uses Create Aeronautics Physics library Sable. You can configure the amount of force applied to trees when manually felling them or blowing them up. Using pistons to remove parts of the tree won't make them fall, as well as other block events such as fire.
