Project MMO normally reduces XP awarded for breaking player-placed blocks. That's not happening when chopping.

Is this really a problem, though? AFAIK, you don't get enough XP for chopping down trees with Tree Chop enabled, as you're only chopping a small percentage of the actual tree's volume. It took me a very long time just to reach 30.

Hey, that's a good point. I'll consider awarding some extra XP when chopping (see #78).

Still, Project MMO does discourage "farming XP" by reducing how much XP is given when breaking player-placed blocks, and TreeChop currently doesn't respect that. Realistically, though, this issue probably won't get fixed -- Project MMO's method for detecting player-placed blocks is pretty sketchy, last I checked. Although, if I do get around to fixing this issue, I'll be sure to first add an option for awarding extra XP when chopping to compensate.

I could've sworn I was getting PMMO Woodcutting XP for each "chop" in 1.18.1 but now I see it's an open issue here. Old age is getting to me...
With that said, +1 bump for wanting this feature implemented.

Version 0.17.0 (only for minecraft 1.19.2 at the moment, but 1.18.2 will come soon) fixes XP awards (players were getting 12 per chop instead of 100) and makes them configurable. I also turned off PMMO's XP reduction for player-placed blocks when chopping -- it doesn't really make sense for chopping.
