    SO I'm making a plugin that uses custom item stats to deal damage to entities. I have the damage calculation done the only thing I'm trying to figure out is if/how I can use the stats in the lore in the calculation.

    Basically, the item's lore states ChatColor.GRAY + "Damage: " + ChatColor.RED + "+50", as one of the lines
    is there a way I can transform the "+50" into a useable number in my calculation?

    I've researched this before writing and people seem to use HashMaps a lot but is there a way for me to create a hashmap on the craft of the specific item or not? Like put it in the ShapedRecipe method and access it elsewhere?

    @man_in_matrix Just get the item's lore, find the line you want and then parse it to an integer.

    ok thanks Ill try it

    ok so I've been trying for a while and can't seem to find a way to grab the lore and parse it.

    The string is always on the same line and I'm trying to do this inside of a PlayerItemHeldEvent any help?
