Description
Enhanced Falling Trees allows trees to fall realistically when cut down, however, the mod only slightly adds realism and has nothing to do with physics as such, it only simulates a fall for the sake of performance, simulating a falling tree.
Additionally, enjoy enhanced visual and auditory features with particle effects as the tree disappears and a wide range of impact and falling sounds.
Fork of the Panda's Falling Tree's mod.

- Dynamic Sounds: A wide variety of sounds accompany the falling and impact of trees, enhancing the immersive experience.
- Flexible customization: Everything in the mod can be customized, for example the number of particles or the duration of a tree’s existence after falling, the speed of falling, etc.
- Worlds reverse compatibility: If you join the world with this mod and then without it and vice versa, everything will work fine.

Known issues
Sometimes when a tree falls, some part of it may fall into the ground, or physics doesn't work as expected. Why?
This is normal behavior and will probably be fixed soon.
Reminder: This is just an imitation of physics using simple functions and formulas, so sometimes its behavior may not be entirely correct.
Please note this mod is a work in progress and features are subject to change.
