Rebalanced the ruby pickaxe and shovel, they are a little less efficient than before (on their specific block they were 4 times more efficient than netherite !! so i fix it)

Deleted the creeper ruby brick

Fix the durability bug with newest version of the game

🔧 TWO MAINS FILES ???

Yes, Because one has custom loot in the chest of vanilla structure, and the others is without this modiification of vanilla structure (mostly for add on compatibility, if you use multiples add on in a world). If you want to install the Version without custom loot in structure you can find the file (the name of the files speak for himself) and its a beta file for now !

📖 BLESSINGS UPDATE (1.5.2)

Blessings books are new items that can be found if you trade ruby with piglin only (for custom loot in structure including blessing go download the Custom Structure Chest Loot files). 5 Blessing books :

• Blessing of Respawning --> Keep Ruby Items upon death ! (Ruby tools, Ruby amor, Enderpearl launcher)
• Blessing of Tempering --> Can be used on the Ruby Pickaxe and the Ruby Shovel, It makes them efficient on the others block of there category (like deepslate for the pickaxe or sand for the shovel) but the counterpart is 6 times less durability !
• Blessing of heaviness --> Used on the Ruby Axe, it changed the range of the ability to freeze mobs from 5 blocks to 15 blocks but the cooldown is 3 minutes.
• Blessing Of Volatility --> Used on the Ruby Axe,  it changed the range of the ability to freeze mobs from 5 blocks to 7 blocks but also gives you the effect Speed, Invisibility and Slow Falling. The cooldown is 3 minutes too.
• Blessing of the Furrow --> Used on the Ruby Hoe, When harvesting you get a chance (1/15) to obtain items such as bone meal or seeds but rarely you can find a iron nautilus armor or even an efficiency III book !
• Nerfed the ruby axe by giving player who are in the effect of weight of death (right-click) temporary resistance I, Fire resistance and Water Breathing. To avoid player from dying by a lava bucket by their ennemy while they cant move.
• Fix lot of bugs from previous update.
• Need a break from the Add on, i will take a 1 month break (or less because i m euxhausted but also so excited to continue...)  to just relax and focus on study.
• Fix the facts that i didn't thank you for the 20 000 download, i m just happy people like my add on !

📖 Features

💎 Ruby - The Magical Ore

Ruby is an extremely rare mineral found deep within the Overworld's caves. More valuable than diamond, it possesses unique magical properties.

🔧 Ruby Tools & Equipment
Ruby tools cannot be enchanted through normal means—instead, they come with built-in magical abilities that make them powerful but situational:

• Each tool has a specific power that encourages strategic use

• Designed to complement rather than replace diamond gear

• Perfect for players who enjoy tactical gameplay over pure strength

🔄 Ruby Nuggets & Recycling

• Ruby Nuggets are obtained from Nether Ruby Ore and certain trades

• Recycling System: Convert Ruby Blocks back into 9 Rubies at any crafting table

• Sustainable Economy: Allows players to recover materials from decorative builds

• Piglin Bartering: Nuggets can be used for exclusive trades in the Nether

⚒️ Ruby Tools

Ruby Sword → Diamond-tier sword that grants Strength II for 7s after a mob kill (with cooldown).

Ruby Pickaxe → Extremely durable, fast on stone but ineffective on deepslate & ores.

Show Craft :

Ruby Shovel → Faster than Netherite on dirt, but useless on sand.

Ruby Axe → Right-click ability Weight of the Dead: freezes mobs & players in a 6-block radius, but prevents you from attacking during the effect.As efficient as diamond tier Axe for breaking wood and leaves.Same damage as a netherite Axe. The ultimate all-rounder !

Complete set unlocks the Guardian of the Ruby ability: when dropping to 4 hearts or less, you gain Resistance II, Fire Resistance, Water Breathing, and now Invisibility for 5s. Long cooldown (1 hours) ensures this is a rare “second chance” ability rather than a spammable buff.

🧭 Balance & Design Philosophy

• Tools and armor cannot be enchanted → instead, they come with special magical properties

• Every piece of Ruby gear is strong but situational, encouraging smart usage instead of brute force

• Designed to fit vanilla survival progression: Ruby is rarer than diamond, but not game-breaking
