Super Axes
Adds super axes that help chop down trees for easier wood resource gathering
About this Mod
Adds super axes that help chop down trees for easier wood resource gathering. Sneaking will make the tool work like a normal axe. If Harvest leaves is enabled, only leaves that have a vanilla mechanic to measure whether they are set to decay or not will be harvested. On all versions after snapshot version 20w20b, the enchantment Silk Touch works when harvesting leaves.

Configuration Screen
The configuration screen allows selecting whether to harvest the leaves of the tree that is being chopped. In order to see the configuration menu, the mod Mod Menu (Fabric) is required.
When harvesting leaves is enabled, the Leaves scanning range decides the radius that will be used to check leaves for harvesting. A greater number will make it slower on forests that have trees connected by leaves since it will scan a greater radius to check if a leaf should be harvested or not.

Starting on version 2.0.7 of the mod:
If enabled, the Show Debug Lines option allows the player to Sneak+Use (Shift+Right Click) on a log to outline the logs that would be harvested if the player mines that log. To remove the outline, the player can Sneak+Use (Shift+Right Click) again on the log.

Starting on version 2.0.9 of the mod:
If enabled, the Show Debug Highlight option allows the player to Sneak+Use (Shift+Right Click) on a log to highlight the logs that would be harvested if the player mines that log. To remove the highlight, the player can Sneak+Use (Shift+Right Click) again on the log.

Notes:
If you change the item in the main hand to another item or throw the SuperAxe while the logs of the tree are being broken, the breaking process will stop.
