Harvester

Harvester is a configurable chain-harvesting mod for Minecraft Beta 1.7.3, built for Babric and StationAPI.

Hold the activation key while breaking a supported block to harvest connected blocks through Minecraft's normal break pipeline. Drops, tool suitability, durability, and block-breaking rules remain intact.

Features

• Connected ore-vein harvesting with a suitable pickaxe
• Connected log harvesting with an axe
• Optional underground dirt and gravel harvesting with a shovel
• Optional leaf harvesting with shears
• Optional mature wheat harvesting with a hoe
• Consolidated drops at the original block
• Configurable maximum chain size and neighborhood
• Category toggles and block allowlist/denylist
• In-game configuration screen
• Optional server-authoritative multiplayer
• Safe defaults for expanded categories and multiplayer

Requirements

• Minecraft Java Edition Beta 1.7.3
• Babric / Fabric Loader 0.18.4
• StationAPI 2.0.0-alpha.6.2
• Java 17

Installation

1. Prepare a Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 instance with Babric and StationAPI.
2. Place the Harvester JAR in the instance's mods folder.
3. Start the game.
4. Hold V while breaking a supported block.
5. Press H to open the configuration screen.

Both keys can be changed in the Controls menu.

Multiplayer

Multiplayer support is optional and disabled by default.

The dedicated server must have Harvester installed and must enable multiplayerAllowed=true. Each client must also opt in separately for that server. Block discovery, tool validation, drops, and durability are controlled by the server.

Configuration

Harvester creates harvester.properties in the Fabric configuration directory.

The default configuration keeps logs and ores enabled. Dirt, gravel, leaves, crops, and multiplayer require explicit activation.
