Description
Vitja's Tree Helper
Replant trees and restore eligible soil after harvesting a tree. Native sapling growth remains unchanged.
After you break a log, Tree Helper inspects the connected tree. When it can identify a suitable site, it lets Hytale handle the upper collapse, harvests eligible remaining trunk and buried root blocks, restores dirt, and plants a matching sapling near the main trunk. Harvested wood can drop as items. Hold crouch while breaking a log to bypass the helper and use the normal felling behavior. Native sapling growth remains unchanged.
The helper deliberately skips ambiguous cases, and cleanup or replanting may not succeed for every tree or terrain. Player-placed decorative logs are protected in the tested case, but some unusual, modded or command-placed structures may not be distinguishable from natural trees. Restored soil is ordinary dirt; original soil variants are not tracked.
Installation and Getting Started
- Install the Tree Helper JAR in your Hytale server's
modsdirectory, then restart the server and join the world. When updating, replace the old Tree Helper JAR rather than loading two copies. - Break a log on a tree as usual. Tree Helper works automatically when it recognizes a suitable tree and location; no menu or command is required.
- Hold crouch while breaking a log to bypass Tree Helper for that harvest.
Tree Helper does not require another separately installed mod. It can also be used independently of SkyIland.
Supports Hytale 0.7.x; tested with 0.7.5.
