Wood Breaker

Performance Optimization Update

This update introduces a new adaptive performance system designed to significantly reduce lag, especially on lower-end systems. Tree processing is now handled in scheduled batches running every 15 ticks, with leaf decay spread over up to 600 ticks. This prevents heavy load spikes and distributes work smoothly over time. An early-stop mechanism has been implemented — if no leaves are detected, the process immediately terminates and all markers are cleaned up, eliminating unnecessary processing.

The system now also supports adaptive performance scaling:

• Under heavy load, processing automatically slows down to reduce strain on the CPU.
• When the system is stable, it runs at normal speed for optimal responsiveness.

Note: The slowdown behavior could not be fully tested on very low-end hardware, but is designed specifically for such environments.

Additionally, a dynamic scan radius is now used:

• Smaller trees use a reduced scan area
• Larger trees retain a wider scan range

This avoids unnecessary block checks and further improves performance.

Tree Behavior Fixes

Fixed tree breaking for:

• Acacia trees
• Cherry trees
• Mangrove trees

Improved handling of large trees, especially the bottom 4 logs, ensuring consistent full-tree breaking

Known Issue / To-Do

Protection for structures near trees is still in development and will be improved in a future update.

Update – Tree Cutting Improvements

This update brings several important fixes and improvements to the tree cutting system:

• Fixed tree detection - trees should now always be fully recognized and cut down properly
• Improved handling of large trees - no more partially cut giant trees
• Fixed cutting from higher blocks - trees will now break even if you don’t start from the very bottom
• Tree breaking now follows the height of the cut, making the behavior more natural

⚠️ Known Issue

• Structure protection on stone foundations is currently not working
• This feature will be restored in the next update
