swrpgtrees
by ShortWlf
Players who clear forests by hand can use swrpgtrees, a Fabric mod that fells a whole tree in one action when the player sneaks and breaks its lowest log with an axe.
What it does
Sneaking, holding shift by default, and breaking the lowest log of a tree with an axe removes the whole trunk and the leaves above it at once. The effect targets the entire tree rather than a single block, so the wood from a grove is gathered in one action instead of one log at a time.
The set of blocks it treats as logs and leaves is defined in the config file. The default list covers the vanilla log and leaf types, and the config also includes the Cherry, Pale Oak, Warped and Crimson trees. Block IDs can be added for modded trees, so the mod can work with trees from other content mods.
The mod is client-side only, so servers run without it and only the player who installs it gets the feature. It is open source under the MIT License and has files for Minecraft 1.21.5 and 1.21.6, with 1.0.2 for 1.21.6 as the latest Fabric build. The mod needs Fabric Loader, and nothing else is listed as required.
Key features
Instant tree felling
Breaking the lowest log of a tree with an axe while sneaking removes the whole tree at once.
Configurable log blocks
The config file lists the block IDs the mod treats as logs, so any log type can be included or left out.
Configurable leaf blocks
A separate list of block IDs sets which leaves are cleared along with the trunk.
Modded tree support
Block IDs from other mods can be added to the lists, so trees from content mods can be felled the same way.
