About this project

What does Timberjack add?

🌲 Timberjack

Timberjack makes tree chopping faster and cleaner without changing normal Minecraft behavior.

Break logs normally and they break normally.

Hold Shift while chopping a tree to fell the entire connected tree at once.

Timberjack detects connected logs vertically and horizontally, including branches and irregular tree shapes, so you don't have to climb around removing leftover floating wood.


🪓 Features

  • Fell entire trees at once
  • Hold Shift to activate Timberjack by default
  • Detects connected logs vertically and horizontally
  • Supports branches and irregular tree shapes
  • Normal log chopping still works normally
  • Tree preview shows which logs will be removed
  • Displays detected log count
  • Quick leaf decay after felling
  • Configurable maximum tree size and search distance
  • Configurable allowed tools
  • Support for additional/custom log blocks
  • Optional protection for player-placed logs

⭐ Axe Leveling

Axes can gain experience and level up as you chop wood.

  • Normal log chopping grants axe XP
  • Timberjack felling grants XP for every log harvested
  • XP requirements increase with each level
  • Axes can gain enchantment rewards as they level
  • Axe progression is stored directly on the tool

Axe leveling can be configured or disabled.


👁️ Tree Preview

Timberjack can highlight the logs that will be affected before you chop a tree.

This lets you see exactly what the mod has detected before felling it.

Preview highlighting, block counts, floating information, and other visual feedback can be configured.


⚙️ Configuration

Timberjack includes configuration options for:

  • Sneak-to-activate behavior
  • Maximum tree size
  • Maximum search distance
  • Quick leaf decay
  • Drop behavior
  • Auto-replanting
  • Allowed tools
  • Additional log types
  • Player-placed log protection
  • Axe leveling
  • Visual previews
  • Durability warnings

The default settings are designed for normal Survival gameplay.


📦 Compatibility

Timberjack works with standard Minecraft logs and axes and can be configured to recognize additional modded logs and tools.
