🌲⛏️ SimpleTimber
Speed up resource gathering without sacrificing survival fairness.
SimpleTimber adds two core mechanics to your Paper server:
- Timber: break full trees at once
- VeinMiner: mine connected ore veins in one go
It is designed to be fast, predictable, and admin-friendly.
✨ Features
🌳 Timber Mode
- Breaks full trees from the lowest trunk block
- Handles wider tree shapes (including acacia-style branching)
- Optional leaf inclusion
- Uses configurable horizontal scan distance to avoid missing side branches
🪨 VeinMiner Mode
- Mines connected ore blocks of the same type
- Configurable maximum blocks per chain
- Optional Auto-Smelt for supported drops:
RAW_IRON → IRON_INGOTRAW_GOLD → GOLD_INGOTRAW_COPPER → COPPER_INGOTANCIENT_DEBRIS → NETHERITE_SCRAP
⚖️ Survival Balance & Anti-Exploit Behavior
- Requires proper tools:
- Axes for logs
- Pickaxes for ores
- Optional sneak requirement
- Chain action only starts if the first block is actually mineable
- Example: no chain trigger when trying to mine diamond ore with a stone pickaxe
🎒 Drop Behavior
- Send drops to inventory or drop naturally on ground
- Overflow handling: if inventory is full, only leftover items are dropped
🧩 Admin-Friendly Config
- Enable/disable Timber and VeinMiner independently
- Tune max blocks, radius, auto-smelt, drop mode, and general behavior
- Works cleanly with normal survival progression
