About this project

What does Lumberjack add?

Lumberjack

Lumberjack is a lightweight, survival-balanced tree-felling datapack that lets you chop down entire naturally generated trees in one swing with any axe—complete with realistic durability usage, rapid leaf decay, bee nest protection, and per-player activation modes.


Key Features

  • Natural Tree Detection Only: Automatically verifies that a tree has natural, non-persistent leaves (or fungus/mushroom caps) before felling, keeping player-built log cabins, wooden structures, and decorative builds completely safe.
  • Full Tree, Fungus & Huge Mushroom Support: Supports every vanilla tree and giant fungus type:
    • Overworld Trees: Oak, Spruce, Birch, Jungle, Acacia, Dark Oak, Mangrove (including Mangrove Roots and Muddy Mangrove Roots), Cherry, and Pale Oak.
    • Nether Huge Fungi: Crimson Stems and Warped Stems (with Nether Wart Block, Warped Wart Block, and Shroomlight cleanup).
    • Huge Mushrooms: Mushroom Stems, Brown Mushroom Blocks, and Red Mushroom Blocks.
  • Fast Leaf & Wart Decay: Once a tree is felled, its surrounding canopy decays rapidly over the next few ticks—dropping saplings, sticks, apples, and mushroom/wart drops right to the chop point so no floating treetops are left behind.
  • Drop Magnetization: All felled logs and canopy drops are neatly gathered at the block you chopped for easy collection.
  • True Vanilla Durability & Unbreaking Support: Every felled log consumes axe durability using vanilla's exact Unbreaking enchantment probabilities (1 / (level + 1)), while respecting minecraft:unbreakable axes.
  • 1-Durability Safety Stop: Never accidentally shatter your favorite enchanted axe—Lumberjack automatically stops felling when your axe reaches 1 durability remaining and alerts you on the actionbar.
  • Bee Nest & Beehive Protection: Automatically leaves behind any log directly supporting a Bee Nest or Beehive and notifies you in chat so you never accidentally anger bees or break their nest.

Per-Player Mode Toggle

Each player can independently customize how Lumberjack behaves for them at any time without needing operator permissions. Run:
