Chop Them Trees! transforms tree chopping into a more satisfying and immersive experience.
Instead of instantly felling an entire tree by breaking a single log, trees must be chopped through multiple stages before finally coming crashing down. Larger trees require more work than smaller ones, making wood gathering feel more intentional while still saving you from manually breaking every log.
Features
- Multi-stage tree chopping progression
- Tree size determines how many chops are required
- Break any log in the tree to continue chopping progress
- Works with vanilla and modded trees automatically
- Detects naturally generated trees and ignores most player-built structures
- Supports all axes
- Sneak while mining to disable the feature and break blocks normally
- Visual cracking progress as you chop
- Preserves the convenience of timber mods without making tree cutting completely instant
