Runics Useful Shears upgrades vanilla shears into a precision, area-based utility tool for clearing, harvesting, and managing soft world elements.

🎯 Core Purpose

Turn shears from single-target use into a controlled multi-target cleanup and harvesting tool, while staying fully survival-balanced.

🔧 Main Systems

🌿 1. Ground Shearing

• Clears grass, flowers, and small foliage in an area
• Does not break terrain blocks
• Drops items normally (seeds, flowers, etc.)

🍃 2. Foliage / Tree Shearing

• Breaks leaves, vines, and soft plant blocks
• Uses a chain system (like Timber)
• Does not affect logs or wood

🐑 3. Animal Proxy Shearing

• Shearing one animal shears nearby valid animals
• Works on sheep and other valid shearable entities
• Respects vanilla conditions

🐝 4. Beehive Proxy

• Shearing one full hive harvests nearby full hives
• Respects:
  • honey level requirements
  • bee anger mechanics
  • campfire rules

❄️ 5. Snow Clearing
