Fast tree cutting is useful when it still respects survival decisions.
ChopPop detects a complete tree when a player sneaks with an axe and breaks a log. It then processes the tree, durability and leaf decay as one intentional action instead of requiring every log to be removed by hand.
ChopPop is a focused quality-of-life add-on for players who gather large amounts of wood. Its explicit sneak trigger reduces accidental use, while durability and enchantment handling keep the action connected to survival resources.

What the add-on changes
The add-on supports normal Overworld trees, Nether stems and appropriately tagged custom trees and axes. An optional companion project can show detected blocks, but the tree-chopping function does not require it.
- Sneak-and-break trigger for deliberate whole-tree chopping.
- Axe durability and Unbreaking behavior are considered.
- Fast natural leaf decay after the trunk is removed.
- Support for tagged custom axes and trees from other add-ons.
Who will get the most value
Builders, survival players and resource-gathering groups will feel the clearest benefit. Players who prefer the original harvesting pace should keep the add-on optional rather than making it a server-wide assumption.
Compatibility and requirements
| CHECK | WHAT TO CONFIRM | SAFE RESPONSE |
|---|---|---|
| Minecraft version | Creator states Bedrock 1.21.80 and newer with stable Script API 1.18.0. | Use a current release after major API changes. |
| Trigger | Sneak with an axe and target a detected full tree. | Test the highlight or detection on a normal tree first. |
| Durability | Axe wear and Unbreaking behave as documented. | Do not test with a rare tool first. |
| Custom content | Custom wood and axes expose expected tags. | Compatibility depends on how the other add-on defines them. |
Safe mobile installation
- Download ChopPop 1.1.2 from the official GitHub asset through MineBrush.
- Open the .mcaddon with Minecraft and activate the imported pack in a copied world.
- Grow or locate an ordinary isolated tree.
- Use a disposable axe, sneak and break one highlighted trunk block.
- Confirm drops, durability and leaf behavior before using it near builds.
First-world test
An isolated tree makes the result easy to inspect and avoids damage to decorative log structures.
- Compare one normal chop and one ChopPop action.
- Check tool durability before and after.
- Confirm stripped logs and decorative wood are not wrongly processed.
- Test a custom tree only after vanilla behavior is correct.
Do not test beside a wooden build.
Whole-tree detection is meant for natural structures. Start in open terrain, keep backups and verify how other add-ons tag custom wood before using the tool around construction.
Troubleshooting
- If nothing happens, confirm the Minecraft minimum version and pack activation.
- If a custom axe fails, inspect whether it exposes the expected axe tag.
- If a custom tree fails, check its wood and leaf identifiers.
- If visual highlighting is absent, remember the EdgeRender companion is optional.
Frequently asked questions
Does ChopPop require experiments?
The current project describes stable Script API support from Bedrock 1.21.80, but always read the latest creator release instructions.
Does it work in the Nether?
The creator lists Crimson and Warped stems as supported.
Will it consume axe durability?
Yes. The project explicitly handles durability and Unbreaking behavior.
Compare more Bedrock add-ons, use the mobile resource hub, or check the Minecraft update archive before changing an important world.
