# Hoes Are Scythes ### About: **This mod is a simple, quality-of-life mod that allows you to use your hoe like a scythe!** No longer do you have to break grass, flowers and crops by hand! With any hoe you can break large areas of foliage quickly and easily. ## Functionality: This mod has some useful yet simple functionality that might set it apart from other similar mods: • If you break any grass similar block, such as ferns, flowers or dead bushes, with a hoe, you will also break other similar blocks in a given radius (the radius depends on the tool material).

• If you sneak whilst breaking a block, the scythe action will not apply and you will only break a single block. • When breaking grass, you won't break your crops, and vice versa. This means you won't accidentally harvest your farm whilst clearing away grass, or destroy any detailing you may have placed around your farms if you are harvesting your crops. • Additionally, when harvesting any fully grown crops with a hoe, you will only break other fully grown crops in the radius. Harvesting farms has never been so easy! Breaking crops that are not fully grown will simply break all crop blocks in the area. **• As of version 1.1, it also works with nether wart!**

• Fortune enchantments also apply to any blocks broken! ### Tool Tiers: As mentioned, the radius of area you can clear expands with better tools. • Wooden and stone hoes will break blocks in the 3 x 3 area.
• Iron hoes will break blocks in the 5 x 5 area.
• Diamond hoes will break blocks in the 7 x 7 area.
• And finally, gold and netherite hoes will break blocks in the 9 x 9 area. ## Configuration As of version 1.4.0, Hoes Are Scythes is fully configurable: - Hoe radii can be customised in `config/hoesarescythes.json`. - Hoes from mods can be added using this config file, with their own custom radius. - Extra scythable blocks or tags can be added. - Config changes can be applied immediately in-game with `/reload`. This makes the mod highly pack-friendly and flexible. Additional instructions below on how to use the config file.

Adding New Hoes

You can add new entries via the `config/hoesarescythes.json` by using the `"namespace:item_id"` format. For example: ``` { "replaceDefaultHoes": false, "hoes": [ { "item": "some_mod:steel_hoe", "radius": 3 }, { "item": "another_mod:mithril_hoe", "radius": 5 } ] "extraScythableBlocks": [] } ```

Adding Additional Scythable Blocks

You can add expand the blocks which can be scythed via the `config/hoesarescythes.json` by using the `"namespace:item_id"` format. For example: ``` "extraScythableBlocks": [ "some_mod:blue_flower", "another_mod:jazbay_grape" ] ```
