Mowing Scythes

Mowing Scythes

Have you ever wished there was a better way to cut your grass than swinging wildly around with your fists? Mowing Scythes aims to be the simple mod that fills that space in your Minecraft world.

Just use a scythe on a block and the scythe will attempt to cut down all plants in a 3x3x2 area around the targeted block.

This mod works well with terrain generators that increase the amount of plants and flora in the world, such as Biome Bundle, Biomes O' Plenty, and Conquest Reforged.

Recipe

Each Scythe is crafted as above, with their respective materials (stone, iron, gold, diamond).

Scythe Details:

Wooden Scythe - A little dull, not too reliable for cutting.

Stone Scythe - Is crafted with smooth stone and can be crafted with Granite, Diorite, or Andesite as well. A little sharper than a wooden scythe.

Iron Scythe - Nice and sharp.

Gold Scythe - Works quite as well as the iron scythe, but becomes a little dull after about a third of its durability is damaged.

Diamond Scythe - Obviously the strongest of the scythes.

Future Ideas:

'Fiery' or 'Burning' modifier for the scythes, where they burn up the drops/plants they cut (no drops). This might be useful for clearing large areas when you don't want anymore seeds or random plants.

As I developed this mod with Conquest Reforged mostly in mind, I also created a resourcepack for compatibility between Mowing Scythes and CR right here. Enjoy it if you play 1.12.2 Conquest Reforged survival in its current buggy state like I do :D

For all those who care: Although I coded all the functionality for this project myself, this mod was made with MCreator.
