Item drops on break

    I know there are some plugins that keep tools from breaking, but is there anyone who would like to design a plugin that could give you back some materials from a broken tool?

    It could be similar to a boat breaking and giving you back sticks and wood; once a tool, an iron sword for example, breaks, an iron ingot(s) and/or a stick could appear either in the inventory or just dropped.

    I think this would be nice because it is more realistic than a tool just disappearing, but it keeps the materials relatively balanced. Thanks for your time.

    Hey there. I'm not sure it is going to work out very well. There is no event to trigger the item breaking, thus making it very difficult to have it drop items on break without there being some kind of bug involved. And that will most likely lead to item farming.

    Would it be fine if the tools or weapon broke just before it's durability entirely runs out? You most likely won't get the visual effect or sound of it breaking, though.

    Yeah, that would be fine, the sound doesnt matter much anyway. Thanks for working on it!
