is a simple Spigot/Paper plugin that makes tools lose durability when harvesting certain crops. The list of affected crops is configurable.
Requirements
- Java 16 or newer
- Spigot or Paper 1.17+
Configuration
The main setting is a list of block types that should cause hoes to lose durability when broken.
config.yml example:
crop-materials:
- "WHEAT"
- "CARROTS"
- "POTATOES"
- "BEETROOTS"
- "NETHER_WART"
- "SWEET_BERRY_BUSH"
- "CAVE_VINES"
- "CAVE_VINES_PLANT"
- "BROWN_MUSHROOM"
- "RED_MUSHROOM"
- "COCOA"
- "TORCHFLOWER"
- "PITCHER_PLANT"
- "CRIMSON_FUNGUS"
- "WARPED_FUNGUS"
Notes:
- Values must match Bukkit
Materialnames. They are treated case-insensitively. - Any invalid material names will be logged as warnings and ignored.
- If no valid materials are configured, the plugin will log a warning and will not affect any blocks.
Behavior
- When a player breaks a block listed in
crop-materials, the plugin checks the player's main hand and off hand. - If the item is a hoe, it will lose 1 durability when harvesting a configured crop.
- The Unbreaking enchantment is respected. The chance to avoid damage is
1 / (level + 1). - If a hoe reaches its maximum damage, it breaks and is removed from the player's hand, and the item break sound is played.
