Cobwebs In The Canopy: An Exercise In Frustration
Post Body

For the past few weeks, with the help of the new Leaf Burner, Falstadt has been steadily clearing out a large tract of spooky forest in Padhzar. It's very time-consuming work for a number of reasons:

  • The trees themselves are very large, even for custom trees.

  • The trees are bent and crooked, in different directions. Thick roots extend outwards and upwards from the base.

  • The trees support (and are covered in) a thick, thick canopy of leaves. Attempting to remove this roof before the addition of the Leaf Burner was impossible. Still, stray leaf blocks are sometimes left floating.

However

Right now what's making removing this canopy so painful is that the trees not only have leaves sprouting from them, but also cobwebs. The thick forest canopy and the lower branches are both composed of a mixture of cobwebs and leaves. Each single cobweb must be removed manually as Leaf Burners have no effect on them. The sheer volume of cobwebs that must be removed for even a single tree is punishing. To put it in perspective, after a week's work, just one of our citizens has collected nearly two and a half thousand cobwebs. The Leaf Burner removes leaves but the cobwebs are left floating in mid-air.

After breaking more cobwebs in the space of a single day than in my entire Minecraft career, it's clear that something has to be done.

The obvious and most straightforward solution would be for Leaf Burners to have the same functionality for cobwebs as they do for leaves
