RealChop
Add a gravity to trees!
When you chop down a tree, it will fall to the side. Leaves will fall on top of it.
Since you hold your axe in your right hand, you are cutting the tree on the right, so it falls to it's right. If any parts of the tree are attached to another block (including diagonally), they will not fall.

Known issues
I've started working on cleaning up the decompiled sources and trying to get this back in working order - see https://github.com/Lucariatias/RealChop or https://github.com/Lucariatias/RealChop/releases once I have something to show.
Need to be updated !
ive been working on it, i have a alpha, but it can derp in the tree detection algorithm. So im not ready for any kind of release.
@lukecfairchild
That sounds EPIC!!! Good luck to you sir!
Anyone who is looking to have this plugin, I am rewriting it entirely using the scripting language in commandhelper. As seen here: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/commandhelper/
Though you must be running a dev version of it, which can be found here:
http://build.sk89q.com/job/CommandHelper/
I hope to have it fully recoded within a month and improved. If you have any interest in using it please let me know.
Since developer seems missing, i decompiled the plugin to get the source code. If anyone can continue this plugin it would be awesome! (i don't know java)
Some of my ideas: 1) It has no permission nodes so you can't forbid it in some worlds or allow it only for some players.
2) Even if a region is guarded (with worldguard or griefprevention) the plugin still detects the break block event (i think is that, im not a dev) and the tree still falls. This allow griefers to cut other people decorative trees, even if protected.
3) Worldguard or griefprevention doesn't block log blocks falling into their regions. If someone plant a huge tree near a protected zone, they can break it and fall to the protected zone ruining it.
4) The plugin doesn't recognize if it is a real natural tree or log blocks in a rustic house, if you put some log blocks in your house and you break them, the log blocks falls in cascade.

@Lucariatias
I havent been able to locate its source. If someone picked this project back up that would be awesome.
@lukecfairchild
It's actually licensed under GPL, so if the source is not availble somewhere, it's actually a license violation.
@ATalkingRock
If I had the time right now, I'd do it myself. Perhaps later this year.
@lukecfairchild
haha it sso coool though!!! somebody needs to remanage it haha
@ATalkingRock
The last time the dev even logged into bukkit was Oct 05, 2012. I think we can safely say this project is dead.
Please add 1: Permissions. I'd enjoy disabling this ability for some players and enabling it for others such as donators etc.
2: The ability to disable the realchop features for jungle trees. Honestly being able to destroy a forest in a matter of minutes and leaving all logs on the floor kinda gets meh.
3: make it so logs dont do the falling physics action if they're placed logs. Some houses can be griefed
Thanks :)
@ravand
maybe I misunderstood this, but why not just remove the plugin..?
Can you please add a feature to disable the falls falling down since some people dont like the feature at all
umm I think its bugged but when you chop down a tree, bunch of leaves and sometimes logs break automatically upon impact. can you fix this?
Can u add option to config where you can select blocks what are part of tree? I have Ice trees and they don't fall :/
@Vovic, Could you please update this plugin or share the source so others may.
Just want to observe two potential issues.
First the big one, there seems to be a major griefing opportunity with this. Suppose a player has his land claimed so that other players can't grief his area. With this plugin installed, a griefer could grow a tree next to the land claim or worse, stack a lot of logs very high next to the land claim, then chop the bottom block to get lots of logs and maybe leaves into the protected area, making a big mess of the victim's house even though it should not be possible for the griefer to build there. Because of this, I would only run this plugin on a small private server where I knew everyone, and never a public server or even a server with an application for whitelist.
Second from the video, it seems like after chopping the tree, there are suddenly more total leaves than there were originally? It's a minor thing.
Having said all that, I think it's a very cool idea. :) And you made it look surprisingly natural, great job!
Nice. :)
So this plugin works but after a while the tree stops falling, the leaves fall but the trees dont. But if i use a plugin manager and unload RealChop entirely and then reload it, its fine. Reloading the server doesnt work though. Please someone updating this plugin. It would be too sad if it died.
Ahhh but your plugin appears to listen to the client side "i broke a block" so if someone chops a tree in a protected area where they cant actually break the log, even tho the protection plugin prevents the log breaking, cause it broke momentarily client side, it triggers your plugin gravity physics and the rest of the protected zone tree falls down.. overriding the region protection... oh my.. inconvenient. Unless you're a griefer on a normally secure server :o(
Is there any way you can have this plugin honor protection zones? It seems to jump in before the protection plugin stops the block breaking. Triggering your fall event.
