Tree Capitator
by SJAR
Tree Capitator lets a player who cuts one log of a tree bring down the whole trunk above it, so chopping a tree takes a single action.
What it does
When a log block is broken, the logs stacked above it in the same tree drop too. The mod works only on trees that generated naturally in the world, and it can be configured in many ways, including which tree types each axe may fell. Breaking the leaves and axe durability loss are part of the same process. Support for Nether trees is off by default and can be switched on in the axe settings.
The mod is distributed as a Fabric mod and as a data pack for world creation. Server owners install it on the server; players may run it too, but the server is the side that needs it. Files cover 28 release versions 1.19 – 26.3, and the latest Fabric file, v-4.0.0+mod, targets 1.20.6. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
Key features
Single-block tree felling
Cutting one log block drops every log stacked above it on that naturally generated tree.
Per-axe tree selection
Each axe can be set to fell only certain tree types, so a Netherite axe can be limited to Nether trees.
Axe durability loss
Axes lose durability according to the number of logs cut.
Leaf breaking
Leaves are removed along with the logs, and the setting covers all axe types.
