Fast Leaf Decay

by las_r

Fast Leaf Decay makes leaves disappear much sooner after their logs are cut, with no setup required.

What it does

Once a tree is felled, the leaves that no longer connect to any log break down in a matter of moments rather than after the usual delay. The change needs no configuration to start working. Only the server needs the mod, because it is server required with the client optional, so players can join a server running it without installing anything.

Key features

  1. Rapid leaf removal

    Leaves without a log connection decay far faster, so cleared trees stop leaving clutter behind.

  2. No setup needed

    The decay behaviour is active as soon as the mod is running, with nothing to configure first.

  3. Available as a data pack

    The same behaviour can also be installed as a data pack for servers that prefer that route.

Questions

Does Fast Leaf Decay need Fabric API?

Only on Fabric and Quilt, where Fabric API must be installed next to the mod. Forge and NeoForge builds need no extra dependency.

Does a player need the mod to join a server that runs it?

No. The server is required and the client is optional, so players can connect without installing anything.
