About this Mod

This mod completely changes how tree chopping works. There are 4 available modes:

Tree Cutting Modes

  • Instantaneous
    Break a single log and the entire tree instantly collapses.

  • Shift down
    When you break a block, the logs gradually shift downward as you continue cutting.
    (Useful if you want a more “balanced” feel but still don’t want to climb up for every log 😛)

  • Fall items
    Break one log and the whole tree falls down with a smooth animation.

  • Fall blocks
    Break a single log and the entire tree falls to the ground with a physics-style animation.

Configuration Options

The config file lets you customize several aspects:

  • Define what counts as a tree (log blocks and leaf blocks).
  • Choose which tools are allowed (add extra axes, enable all tools, etc.).
  • Enable or disable leaf breaking.
  • Option to disable the mod’s effect while sneaking (toggleable).
  • Adjust falling speed depending on tree size.
  • Decide whether tools take damage or break based on the number of logs.
  • Keep tools at 1 durability instead of fully breaking them.

Requirements

  • Fabric users: Requires Fabric API.
  • NeoForge/Forge users: Cloth Config API is optional on the client and provides an in-game configuration menu.

Known Conflicts

Some incompatibilities have been reported with:

  • VeinMiner

Frequently Asked Questions

Better Trees Plus server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Better Trees Plus compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge?

Better Trees Plus officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.11. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Better Trees Plus – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Better Trees Plus consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
