CanopyFade 1.0.0 — Forge

Initial Release — Minecraft 26.3

CanopyFade speeds up natural leaf decay while preserving Minecraft's vanilla mechanics.

Features

• 🍃 Fast Leaf Decay: Once leaves lose their connection to supporting blocks according to vanilla Minecraft's leaf-distance rules, they begin decaying rapidly. Unsupported leaves progressively disappear, typically finishing within 2 seconds (40 game ticks).

• 🌳 Vanilla Support Preserved: Leaves still supported by nearby logs or neighboring trees remain intact.

• 🌱 Player-Placed Leaves Protected: Persistent leaves, including those placed by players, will not decay.

• 🍎 Normal Drops: Naturally decaying leaves retain their normal vanilla loot, including saplings, sticks, and apples where applicable.

• ⚡ Progressive Decay: Leaves disappear gradually across the canopy rather than all breaking simultaneously.

• 🚀 Lightweight: No world scanning, forced chunk loading, or unnecessary background processing.

• 🖥️ Server-Side Compatible: Multiplayer servers can run CanopyFade without requiring players to install it.

• 🎯 Single-Purpose: No additional items, blocks, menus, configuration, or unrelated features.

Requirements

• Minecraft: 26.3

• Mod Loader: Forge 66.0.10

• Java: 25

Chop the tree. Watch the canopy fade. Keep moving.
