QuaTimber — Safe & Lightweight Timber Plugin for PaperBreak a single log and chop entire trees instantly — without risking player houses or wooden builds.
QuaTimber is a lightweight and performance-optimized timber plugin built specifically for Paper servers. Unlike traditional timber plugins, QuaTimber intelligently detects only natural trees using Minecraft's leaf persistence system, preventing accidental destruction of player-built structures.
No unnecessary complexity. No unsafe tree breaking. Just a clean, optimized timber experience.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW IT WORKS━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Simply hold an axe and break the bottom log of a tree.
QuaTimber automatically detects connected logs and breaks the entire tree instantly while preserving natural drops and Minecraft behavior.
Want to break only a single log?
✔ Sneak while breaking to disable timber temporarily.
This makes building and decoration safe without needing to toggle commands or permissions.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SMART TREE DETECTION━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Most timber plugins simply destroy connected logs — which can accidentally ruin wooden houses, builds, and player-made structures.
QuaTimber solves this problem by detecting only naturally generated trees.
Using Minecraft's isPersistent() leaf system:
✔ Natural trees are detected normally
✔ Player-placed leaves are ignored
✔ Wooden houses stay safe
✔ Player-made tree farms won't accidentally break if configured
If no natural leaves are detected nearby, the plugin simply does not activate.
Your builds stay protected.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZED━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
QuaTimber is built with server performance in mind.
Instead of recursion-based tree scanning, QuaTimber uses an optimized Breadth-First Search (BFS) system.
Benefits:
✔ No recursion
✔ No stack overflow risks
✔ Lightweight memory usage
✔ Stable performance on busy servers
✔ Safe for large trees
Designed for long-term Paper server stability.
