Reset Anvil Repair Cost
Avoid the annoying Too Expensive! text
Supported Versions: 1.20 and above
This simple plugin ensures that the Repair Cost of any item remains within the allowed limit set in the configuration file.
Since that limit is enforced client-side, the current solution is to cap the repair cost of items at 40 levels
Commands:
Command to reload the configuration file
/anvilresetcost reload
Permissions:
Permission for Players to be able to use the plugin
resetrepaircost.userPermission to reload the configuration file
resetrepaircost.admin
If an item has already surpassed the Repair Cost limit and/or is already showing the "Too Expensive!" text, you can revert it to the Adjusted Cost by simply clicking on the item while it is in the Anvil Slot.
