TMF – Too Many Features

53 quality-of-life features in one vanilla datapack, and every one of them can be switched on or off.

Players choose their own features from an in-game menu, and server admins control everything from an admin panel. No mods, no resource pack, no config files: just drop it in and play.

🧰 Features

Each table shows two things:

• Server default: whether the feature is switched on right after you install TMF. Admins can switch any feature on or off for the whole server in the admin panel.
• Players: what each player can change for themselves in /trigger tmf (only when the server has the feature switched on).
  • On · can turn off – active for every player, but each player can switch it off for themselves.
  • Off · can turn on – each player switches it on for themselves if they want it.
  • Everyone – applies to all players; only admins can switch it.

⛏ Mining & tools (6)

Feature	What it does	Server default	Players
Tool Auto-Swap	When you start breaking a block, the best tool in your inventory for it is swapped into your hand: pickaxe, axe, shovel, hoe or shears, highest material first. While you keep mining, for example when tunnelling, it switches tools as soon as you look at a block that needs a different one. Chests, doors, crafting tables and other blocks you right-click are ignored. It pauses briefly after combat. Sneak to stop it.	❌ Off	Off · can turn on
Tool Protector	When the tool in your hand is down to 2 durability, an identical spare from your inventory is swapped in. If there's no spare, you get a warning before it breaks.	❌ Off	Off · can turn on
Veinminer	Mine an ore with a pickaxe to mine the whole connected vein, up to 64 blocks, deepslate variants included. Fortune, Silk Touch and XP drops work as normal.	❌ Off	Sneaking · can switch to Always or Off
Tree Feller	Chop a log with an axe to fell the whole tree, up to 200 logs, diagonal branches included. It only fells real trees whose trunk ends in natural leaves, so your log cabin is safe. It also works on crimson and warped stems.	❌ Off	Sneaking · can switch to Always or Off
Fast Leaf Decay	After you chop a tree, the leaves left floating disappear within about a second, with normal sapling, stick and apple drops.	❌ Off	Everyone

🎛 Player menu

Type /trigger tmf to open your personal settings, sorted into the same categories as above. There you can switch on or off every feature whose Players column says can turn off, can turn on or can switch. Features the server has switched off don't appear. A 🔒 means an admin has made that feature mandatory for everyone. The menu also has 📍 Waypoints… (when the server has Waypoints on) and 📊 My stats.

🛡 Admin panel

Operators run /function tmf:admin once to become an TMF admin. After that, the panel opens from the player menu or with /trigger tmf set 2.

• Feature switches: each feature can be turned on or off for the whole server, grouped into nine categories so you can find them quickly.
• Presets: Everything on · Recommended (the defaults) · Minimal (info features only) · All off
• Player locks: force a personal feature on for everyone.
• Performance mode: pauses health bars and damage numbers and slows down the background scans on busy servers.
• Settings: AFK timeout (2–30 min), the percentage of players needed to sleep, and the entity warning limit.
• Player inspector: online status, position, health, food, level, game mode, AFK state, playtime, deaths and kills of any player, with the last known position and time for offline players, and a teleport button.
• Lag helper: counts loaded entities by kind and near each player, and clears old dropped items, XP orbs, stuck arrows or hostile mobs that aren't name-tagged.
• Slime chunk seed: paste the number from /seed once for the Slime Chunk Checker.
• Changelog and a full Uninstall that removes every scoreboard, tag and helper entity and restores the game rules it changed.

All settings are saved in the world.

📦 Installation

1. Put the datapack (the zip or the folder) into <world>/datapacks/.
2. Restart the world or server. Single-player: Save and Quit to Title, then open the world again. A plain /reload isn't enough the first time, because Pet Protection uses a custom enchantment and the game only loads enchantments when a world opens.
3. You'll see "TMF - loaded" in chat. Operators then run /function tmf:admin once.

Commands

Command	Who	What it does
/trigger tmf	everyone	personal settings menu
/trigger tmf.stats	everyone	your stats card
/trigger tmf set 3	everyone	which features the server has enabled
/function tmf:admin	operators	become an TMF admin and open the admin panel
/trigger tmf set 2	TMF admins	open the admin panel

⚠ Good to know

• Stats Card and Playtime Milestones count from the moment TMF was added to the world.
• Spawn-Proof Checker is exact in caves and indoors. Unlit spots outdoors, where the sky is visible, can't be detected.
• Right-click features: while you look at a ladder, a ripe crop or a block you're mining up close, Ladder Dropping, Right-Click Harvest and Tool Auto-Swap catch your clicks. Near a ripe crop, right-click harvests it instead of eating or raising a shield. Sneak to get normal vanilla behaviour.
• Tool Auto-Swap needs a tool or sword in your hand and never replaces a tool of the right type you're already holding, such as a silk-touch pickaxe.
• Pickup Notices also show items you take from chests or craft (gains only, up to 4 item types at once).
• Sort Chest sorts alphabetically and only merges truly identical items, so items with different enchantments or names stay separate.
• Item Magnet pulls items in a straight line, even through walls.
• Veinminer and Tree Feller use 1 durability per extra block and stop before your tool would break. They don't run in creative mode.
• Tree Feller only fells real trees (with natural leaves at the top), so log buildings are safe. It stays within 7 blocks sideways of the log you chopped, so a log wall touching a tree's trunk could lose a few logs.
• Ladders placed in mid-air stay up until a block next to them changes, like any unsupported ladder.
• No Crop Trampling protects farmland from players only. Landing on farmland also causes no fall damage.
• AFK Detection manages the players_sleeping_percentage game rule while it's on, so set the sleep percentage in the admin panel instead of with /gamerule.
• Creeper and Ghast No-Grief still deal explosion damage (difficulty and Blast Protection apply), but walls don't shield you from it and there's no knockback.
• No Zombie Door Breaking doesn't stop vindicators breaking doors during raids.
• Coordinates and waypoints appear in a bar at the top of the screen that only you can see.
• Waypoint names are picked from a list (Home, Base, Farm, Mine, Portal, …).
• Slime Chunk Checker needs an admin to paste the world seed (from /seed) into the admin panel once. Datapacks can't read the full seed by themselves.
• Animal Owners and the Player inspector only know players who have joined since TMF was installed.

❓ FAQ

Does it work on servers? Yes, on any Java 26.3 server that loads datapacks.

Will it conflict with other datapacks? Everything lives in the tmf namespace and no vanilla files are replaced. The only shared things are game rules (spawn_phantoms, players_sleeping_percentage, and mob_griefing if you use its switch), which are touched only when the related feature or switch is used.

How do I remove it? Open the admin panel → Uninstall TMF…, then delete the datapack from the datapacks folder.
