Demonstration of Logs Falling

About this Mod

Adds lumber axes that fell logs like sand.

A demonstration of the lumber axe breaking a tree and causing supported logs to fall like sand.

Recipes for the added lumber axes: wooden, stone, iron, golden, and diamond. Each recipe is the same as vanilla axes with an additional corresponding material in the bottom left corner, resembling an upside down

I developed this mod a while back because I wasn't satisfied with how trivial other mods made tree felling, some with "vein miner" mechanics, and others felling entire trees with a fancy animation after taking longer than obsidian to break. I wanted something closer to vanilla, something that I'd believe existed in the base game. I believe this mod gets pretty close.

The axes, when used to break logs, cause supported logs to fall just like sand and gravel. It does not affect neighboring logs, however, so those annoying branches in the giant oak trees are unaffected.

While these axes inherit all the functionality of vanilla axes, I would remain cautious using them in their place, as they can cause your stylish log pillars to become gravitationally griefed.

Tip The sand torch trick works on the logs.
