Wooden Shears Mechanics and Usage
Wooden Shears support all behaviors associated with vanilla shears. They allow players to interact with the environment and mobs in specific ways that are otherwise impossible or inefficient.
Mob Interactions
- Sheep: Right-clicking a sheep will shear its wool, dropping 1–3 wool blocks of the sheep's color. This does not harm the sheep.
- Mooshrooms: Shearing a Mooshroom (Red or Brown) will drop 5 mushrooms of the corresponding type and transform the Mooshroom into a standard Cow.
- Snow Golems: Right-clicking a Snow Golem will remove its pumpkin head, revealing its true face underneath.
Block Harvesting
Wooden Shears allow for the "Silk Touch" style harvesting of specific organic blocks that would otherwise break or drop different items:
- Leaves: Harvests any leaf block (Oak, Spruce, etc.) for use in decoration
- Cobwebs: Instantly harvests cobwebs as an item instead of dropping string
- Plants: Harvests Tall Grass, Seagrass, Ferns, Large Ferns, Dead Bushes, and Vines
- Glow Lichen: Allows for the collection of Glow Lichen blocks
Specialty Mechanics
- Pumpkins: Used to carve a face into a placed Pumpkin, turning it into a Carved Pumpkin (required for making Jack o' Lanterns or Golems).
- Beehives and Bee Nests: When a hive or nest reaches honey level 5, using Wooden Shears will harvest 3 Honeycombs. (Caution: This will anger the bees unless a campfire is placed underneath).
- Tripwires: Shearing a tripwire connected to a tripwire hook will break the wire without triggering the redstone signal, allowing for safe passage through traps.
