Description

Smart Obsidian Tools adds a complete set of three powerful obsidian tools to Minecraft, each designed to save you time and make your survival experience smoother.
✦ Features
Obsidian Pickaxe — Mines a full 3×3 area of any pickaxe-mineable block (stone, ore, deepslate, and more). Perfect for mining sessions and tunnel digging.
Obsidian Shovel — Digs a full 3×3 area of any shovel-mineable block (dirt, sand, gravel, soul sand...). Flatten terrain or dig foundations in seconds.
✦NEW✦ Obsidian Axe — Fells an entire tree in a single swing. Break any log and every connected log and leaf block will instantly break and drop. Smart enough to recognize each tree as a separate structure, so nearby trees won't be affected.
✦ Smart Detection
Every tool is smart about what it breaks. The 3×3 effect only triggers if the target block is actually mineable by that tool — no accidental breaking of leaves, grass, or other unintended blocks. The axe only triggers when breaking a log, not leaves.
✦ Player Control
All three tools share the same toggle keybind (default: Left Shift, fully rebindable in Options → Controls). Hold the key to temporarily switch back to normal 1×1 mining or chopping. Release to return to the enhanced mode.
✦ Configuration
Server administrators and modpack creators can configure the maximum number of blocks the Obsidian Axe will fell at once via the smartobsidiantools-common.toml config file.
[general]
# Range: 1 ~ 500
maxTreeBlocks = 50
✦ Crafting
All tools are crafted with obsidian and obsidian sticks. Recipes are available in-game via your favourite recipe viewer (JEI, REI...).
✦ Compatibility
• Minecraft 1.21.1
• NeoForge
• Built with MCreator and Java
✦ Note
This mod is actively developed. More features are planned for future updates. Feel free to report bugs or suggestions in the comments !

📋 Changelog - Version 1.1.1
🔧 Corrections :
- Fixed durability consumption being incorrectly affected by the number of blocks broken with the pickaxe, shovel and axe. v
- Fixed the Obsidian Pickaxe being able to mine Netherite, Netherite Blocks and Obsidian despite using the Iron tool tier.
✨ Improvements :
Added the official mod logo, resulting in a slight increase in the size of the .jar file, with no impact on in-game performance.
