TreeCapitator

A Minecraft data pack that fells the entire tree when you chop a single log.

Installation

1. Download the latest release.
2. Drop the zip into your world's datapacks folder.
3. That's it! Enjoy!

Usage

Press G to open settings, or run /trigger TreeCapitator.

From the main dialog you can toggle:

• Activation — when felling triggers (standing, sneaking, or both). Per-player.
• Update Durability — whether felled logs cost axe durability.
• Break Leaves — whether attached leaves are broken too.
• Fall Animation — visual log-tipping effect.
• Axe Settings — per-axe toggle and per-tree restrictions (see below).
• Lock Settings — freeze settings server-wide. OPs unlock with /function tc:unlock.

Axe settings

For each axe you can enable/disable it and choose which tree types it can fell.

Locking

When locked, only the per-player activation toggle can be changed. Everything else is read-only until an OP runs /function tc:unlock.

Adding custom trees and axes

Other data packs can extend TreeCapitator by calling its register functions - no edits to TreeCapitator needed.

Custom axe

function tc:axe/register {score: "my_axe", namespace: "mymod", name: "My Axe", max_damage: 500}

That's it. Use-detection picks it up automatically; no predicate or tag edits required.

Custom tree

function tc:tree/register {default_enabled: 1, name: "Mahogany", block: mahogany_log, namespace: "mymod", animation_block: mahogany_wood, leaves: mahogany_leaves, diagonal_up: 1, diagonal_side: 1, stem: 0, nether: 0, max_branch: 0}

For your custom log/leaf blocks to be detected during felling, also extend TreeCapitator's block tags from your addon pack — Minecraft merges tags across packs:

• data/tc/tags/block/logs.json — your log blocks
• data/tc/tags/block/leaves.json — your leaf blocks
• data/tc/tags/block/nether_logs.json — for nether-style logs
• data/tc/tags/block/nether_leaves.json — for nether-style leaves
