Tree Felling
by trialdragon
Tree Felling makes trees fall like sand or gravel once their base is broken, so chopping one down takes a single action.
What it does
When a tree is cut, its logs fall as one connected unit, and falling logs can hurt entities they land on. The mod targets trees already generated in the world and also trees grown later from saplings, so an existing world needs no reset. Only the server needs it, so players join without installing anything. It is published for Fabric and Forge across 1.16.3, 1.16.4, 1.16.5 and 1.17.1, and the code is not open source, with All rights reserved.
Key features
Felling whole trees
Breaking the base of a tree brings the trunk and its logs down in one action.
Falling logs
Logs that drop from a felled tree can damage entities standing in their path.
Works on new and old trees
Trees already in the world and trees grown from new saplings both respond to felling.
