Inactive [FUN/MECH] ChopTree 1.24 - Chop Trees by Removing Lowest Block - Like Cacti [1000] (by Arcwolf)

ChopTree - Chop trees like cacti or make logs move down while chopping
Version: 1.24


ATTENTION:
There seems to be a plugin conflict where the client crashes with a blue-white screen and keeps crashing for minutes after that.
If you encounter the error please give me a list of the plugins you are using, with enough lists I will be able to outrule what causes it. Please also tell me if you are using any client-side mods.


Thanks very much to Arcwolf for developing version 1.24!

Tested with Craftbukkit build [740], [766], [798], [818], [1000].
Supports: Permissions v. 2.7.2 (Phoenix) and mcMMO v. 1.0.07.
Please give me feedback, ask any questions you like and/or provide suggestions!
Thank you!

Features:

• Lets trees act like cacti - remove a block and all blocks above are yieled too.
• Or you can make that log blocks move down one by one instead - no more climbing trees.
• Works with all three tree types (they all yeild their own wood).
• Also works with "big" trees that have multiple branches - makes felling them a lot easier.
• Restrict using this plugin to certain tools only.
• Supports mcMMO and Permissions.
• Only works on trees, houses made of logs are safe!
• Chunk protection to make your tree houses safe.

Description:
This plugin was requested by Britich and is inspired by the Canary plugin RealTree by billyoyo.
However, it is not just a simple port of that plugin, it was made from scratch after Britich's description.

Approach tree...


...and punch it.


All logs will be yielded.


The leaves will decay like normal.

Set-up:

​

Even though I added a lot of things for version 1.2 it will act like the original one if you don't change any settings - with the exception of players are able to toggle the plugin.​

To run this plugin just copy it into your plugins folder. On first startup it will create a ChopTree folder and a ChopTree.properties file, which you can edit.​

There will be a ChopTree.players file which saves player toggles and a ChopTree.chunks file which saves protected chunks.​

​

Properties File:

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

The ChopTree.properties file will look like this when first created:

Code:

# -ChopTree Properties-
# You can add or change the command and toggle command aliases here.
# Because of technical limitations the console commands will always be "ChopTree" and "ct", but the in-game comments will be taken from here.

Command = ChopTree, ct
Toggle = ToggleChop, tc

# Here you can change the options (can also be done in-game).

ActiveByDefault = true
UseAnything = true
MoreDamageToTools = false
InterruptIfToolBreaks = false
SupportMcmmoIfAvailable = true
TreeFellerNeeded = false
LogsMoveDown = false
OnlyTrees = true

# -Material List-
# If the "UseAnything" option is false, the plugin will take the items you can use to chop trees with from here.
# You can either put in the material's name or its ID.

mat = WOOD_AXE
mat = STONE_AXE
mat = IRON_AXE
mat = GOLD_AXE
mat = DIAMOND_AXE

Command and Toggle can be changed manually by just adding more aliases for them, seperated by commas. Note that if you run the command from the console it will always have the aliases "ChopTree" and "ct", no matter what it says in your file.
You can also remove either of the lines to disable the command for players completely.

The options can be changed manually in the file too. To find out which option has which effect look at the "Commands" section below.

The material list will only be used if the option UseAnything is false. In that case you can specify which items players can use to chop trees with this plugin, other items will not trigger plugin effects (except chunk protection). You can either use the item ID or it's name.
If you want to make tree chopping more costly you can only allow gold axes for example.
List of item IDs on Minecraft Wiki, list of all item names in the Bukkit documentation.

Hi.

Tried to install this plugin for my server but it didn't work. Is there anything more to it other than copying the .jar file into the plugins directory and restarting? Or is it maybe just not compatible with the current MC version. If this is the case, is there maybe some alternative out there, that does basically the same?

Also, is there a way to increase the durability used on axes for this, to compensate for the somewhat lower need of axes?

 

update to 1.2.5?
