Thanks for letting me know Machete91, I will look into it. Are you playing in multiplayer or single?

Could you link some of those mods, especially if they add grindable ingredients or might change the quern?

💬 Machete91, 3 days ago

Tried to use the mod in my world but it doesnt work unfortunately, its a modded 1.20.10 world though. (about 45 mods, mostly just the most common/popular mods that exist)

The hotkey works fine, and then when i look at the quern it will actually "work" and rotate, but it doesnt process anything, the progress bar doesnt move, so all it does is just spin but it doesnt grind anything thats inside. I tried different materials and also replacing the quern but its the same issue.

Lemurface Yes, I thought you meant chopping like turning into logs like how some mods (for example in dappled groves) require you to have a chopping block in order to further process wood into logs or slabs.

💬 Fairyfloss, Jun 9th at 2:45 PM

I think they misunderstood and thought you were referring to the action of turning logs into firewood.

That being said, this is sounding like a great mod. I'll have to give it a try soon; having to hold down the mouse for ages chopping down a big tree is not fun.

💬 Lemurface , Jun 9th at 8:12 AM

LunaGore My plan for woodcutting is simply: Are you holding an axe while looking at a log? If so, chop that log. (Now available in 1.3.0)

Or if you're asking how I might add support for other mods, I could look into it if you have a specific mod in mind.

💬 LunaGore, Jun 9th at 5:59 AM

How would you do woodcutting? For mods that add manual/in-world cutting actions?
