Timber Physics

Timber Physics makes trees fall chopped in one action. Chopping the base of a tree sends its logs and leaves falling together, and the mod works with vanilla trees, large trees and custom trees from other datapacks. A server owner sets the largest tree that can be triggered, with three presets: up to 15 logs and 100 leaves, up to 150 logs and 400 leaves, and up to 200 logs and 800 leaves, the last being the default. A tree larger than the selected maximum is not triggered.

The server needs the mod, while players may add it or leave it out. Its settings let a server choose whether sneaking triggers the felling or whether chopping with an axe does, and whether an axe with Silk Touch counts as a trigger. Options are player specific or global, and a global setting can be changed only by an admin. Timber Physics requires no loader API. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack for servers, for the 1.21 – 26.1 range, with the latest file for 1.21.11. The code is open source under the MIT License.

Trees that need a different treatment fall outside the default trigger. Nether trees are not covered by the base mod, and a separate addon, Timber Physics - Nether addon, is required for them. Its presence is the one dependency the catalog lists against this mod.
