SnapShears
Area-of-effect shearing that trims every adult sheep nearby, server side.
Quick answer
Which SnapShears release should I use?
SnapShears 5.1.0+26.1.2 targets 26.1.2 with NeoForge. Do not install it on the client. It must be installed on the dedicated server. All 2 required mods have matching files.
Where it goes
Is SnapShears required on the client, server, or both?
Do not install it on the client. It must be installed on the dedicated server.
This file is marked server-only.
What else does SnapShears 5.1.0+26.1.2 need?
5.1.0+26.1.2. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Amber, Konfig first. We found matching files for this game-version and loader setup.
We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

About this project

Config
In the config snapshears.json5 you can configure which mods are considered shears.
Add item ids like minecraft:shears or prefix a tag with # (e.g. #c:tools/shear).
Compatibility
SnapShears calls Minecraft’s built-in shear() method, so any sheep variant that responds to normal shears will work too. If you find any problems, let me know.
Q&A
Q: Where can I ask something that is not listed here?
A: Make an issue here or join the Discord and shoot me a message.
Q: Can you port it to [MC version/Mod loader]?
A: If enough people request it I'll give it some time, but this really is a 1-man team so it might take a while.
Q: Can I include it in my modpack?
A: Yes, no need to give credit or ask.
