Craft book log cutting

When cutting a tree with an axe, its cool that the whole tree falls, its good for making the place look better, rather than they're been floating trees and generally its just handy for people who want quick logs.
But can we please add a way to disable this plugin, because when building its really annoying when you have to destroy some logs in your build, and then the whole thing you just built gets destroyed. I have watched countless people destroy nearly whole houses and bridges because of this. So I think it would be a good idea if there was some way we could toggle the ability, to save stress.

We were SUPPOSED to have made it so it only works with Wood/Stone axes. A few months ago. We're able to do this, we just haven't.

I can change it if you want. I just need to know which config setting I have to change

I thought it was going to also be iron axes so we only need to remove diamond axes from the config

What needs to be done is to remove the "DIAMOND_AXE" from the list of tools used for tree lopper

but then you HAVE to have a diamond axe to use an axe on a log structure. Which makes diamond the only good one for house deconstruction, which wouldn't be done too often, and much much worse for actual tree cutting.

I'm not sure what you're getting at, Joe, that's kinda the idea. If you want to farm wood with this plugin, you cannot use diamond (1562 uses). You must use wood (60 uses), stone (132 uses), or iron (251 uses). The idea is that both Tree Lopper will be nerfed slightly by requiring a little more work if you want to gather enormous amounts of wood, and diamond axes last even longer in their best environments (small edits and PVP).

I see your Point with diamond axes being the only one that doesn't have this affect. But I think Joes trying to say people who are newer to the server who don't have diamonds, who build with wood, have the downfall that they cant freely build and edit what they want without it being a long process of destroying logs with there fist.

maybe take stone away from the list too then? everyone starts with a set of stone tools anyway. have signs at spawn saying which ones do the lopping
