This mod has been discontinued, however my new and updated mod with the same functionality can be found here.
==================
Stripping blocks in the world is pretty inconvenient at times, especially if you want to strip large amounts of blocks. Eventually, I got fed up with the whole process and decided to make a mod.
'Easy Cutting' allows you to convert blocks into their stripped variants without having to place them in the world first. Simply pick up an axe in your inventory and right click any strippable block with it!
Mod Compatibility
Other mods should be fully compatible with this one, however I have not gone through and tested them all so there may be incompatibilities.
For mod makers, custom axes should work if they either extend the AxeItem class or override the canPerformAction method. Strippable blocks are identified through the STRIPPABLES map in the AxeItem class, so custom strippable blocks should be added to it.
