TreeFell
by Ghost
TreeFell makes breaking one log fell the whole connected tree in a single action on Fabric servers.
What it does
Breaking a single log in a connected trunk brings the entire tree down at once. The search follows connected logs from the broken block, so vanilla, modded and mixed-wood trees all come down the same way. Leaves stay where they are and decay normally afterward, so no floating leaves remain. Drops behave as they do in vanilla, and Fortune and Silk Touch apply to every block that breaks.
Fabric API is a required dependency, and Fabric Loader 0.19.3 or newer must be present. The server is the side that needs the mod: it is required on the server, while players may add it on their client. It also works in singleplayer. The source is public and the license is the MIT License, so the code is open source. Builds are published for game version 26.2 only, with 1.0.0+26.2 as the latest Fabric file, dated 2026-06-22.
Key features
Instant tree felling
One swing of an axe or any log break removes the full connected trunk without repeated clicking on each block.
Leaves handled by decay
Leaves are not removed by the feller and decay naturally, as in vanilla, leaving no stranded foliage in the air.
Capped felling per tree
Each felling is limited to 512 blocks, which keeps a single break from clearing an unbounded number of blocks.
Vanilla drop rules
Every broken log follows normal loot behavior, including Fortune and Silk Touch enchantments.

Use cases
Survival clearing
Players clearing land for a base can take down a forest quickly without breaking each log by hand.
Server economies
Server owners can keep the capped felling limit to prevent griefing through mass removal of trees.
Who it’s for: Server owners who want faster tree harvesting with a per-tree cap, and players who harvest a lot of wood on a server that runs the mod.
How it compares
Chopt is open source under the MIT License and runs in both client and server environments across 1.20.1 – 26.3, so it can be installed on the client as well. LemmeCutTrees is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, server-side only, for 26.1.2. Trees Shall Fall is server-side only, released under the MIT License, is not open source, and targets 26.1.2. TreeFell differs from these by being published for 26.2 only and by needing no client install.

What the author says
Break a single log block and watch the entire tree come down instantly. No more clicking block by block up a trunk. Hit one log, and every connected log in that tree is felled at once — leaves stay put and decay naturally, just like vanilla.
