Definitive Tree Capitator Addon Mcpe FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Why isn't the tree capitator working when I chop a tree?
This addon relies on the GameTest framework to function, which means you must enable Experimental Settings in your world options. Go into your world settings and turn on the experimental gameplay toggles so the addon can detect when you break wood.
How do I chop down an entire tree at once?
Simply equip an axe and break a single block of wood on a tree. As long as the addon is active and experimental settings are enabled, the entire connected tree will be removed automatically.
Why are custom axes from my other addons not chopping down whole trees?
You likely have the addon set to the 'Vanilla Only' configuration option, which restricts the tree capitator ability strictly to default Minecraft axes. Switch the addon's subpack or configuration setting to the Custom Axe option so modded axes can use the ability.
Does this addon clear floating leaves too?
Yes, the latest version of the addon automatically breaks the leaves alongside the wood when you cut down a tree. This prevents annoying floating leaf blocks from being left behind.
Is there a special interaction if I crouch while using an axe?
Yes, the addon includes a secondary feature that triggers when you crouch and interact with a wood block while holding an axe. This function works with both default vanilla axes and compatible custom axes.
Will this addon conflict with other addons that change player behavior?
No, this addon does not use the player.json file and instead runs on GameTest. Because of this, it will not overwrite or conflict with other addons that rely on modifying player.json.
What load order should I use when combining this with other addons?
Because this addon does not use player.json, you can safely place it at the bottom of your load order. If you are using another addon that adds custom axes and uses player.json, place that other addon first above the Tree Capitator addon.
How do I stop custom axes from other addons from breaking whole trees?
Open the addon's configuration options in your behavior pack settings and select the 'Vanilla Only' mode. This disables the tree capitator function for all third-party custom axes while keeping it active for vanilla axes.
Are all custom axes from every addon guaranteed to work?
While the Custom Axe mode makes the addon compatible with almost any addon that adds new axes, it is not guaranteed to work with every single custom axe. Ensure you have selected the Custom Axe configuration and enabled all experimental settings to maximize compatibility.
How do I choose between the Old Function and New Function for leaf breaking?
You can configure how the addon behaves by selecting the appropriate option in the addon's settings before loading your world. This lets you choose whether you just want the wood chopped or if you also want the leaves cleared automatically.
