MinecraftForge 1.19.3 Conditional Block Drop

[CodingNoob52]

We were attempting to make an ore only drop an item when broken by a netherite pickaxe. At first, we tried adding in the register .requiresCorrectToolForDrops() but we didn't know how to define which tool is required. Then we tried adding tags like NEEDS_DIAMOND_TOOL but realized that there is no tag for netherite pickaxe. Even if we wanted to use the diamond tool tag, we still didn't know how to add a tag to this ore. Finally, we tried to just use a .json file with "match_tool" but that didn't work either. We also tried to add the tag MINEABLE_WITH_PICKAXE but still couldn't figure out how to add it.

Here is the json file we tried.

{
  "type": "minecraft:block",
  "pools": [
    {
      "bonus_rolls": 0.0,
      "entries": [
        {
          "type": "minecraft:alternatives",
          "children": [
            {
              "type": "minecraft:item",
              "conditions": [
                {
                  "condition": "minecraft:match_tool",
                  "predicate": {
                    "enchantments": [
                      {
                        "enchantment": "minecraft:silk_touch",
                        "levels": {
                          "min": 1
                        }
                      }
                    ]
                  }
                }
              ],
              "name": "examplemod:my_ore"
            },
            {
              "type": "minecraft:item",
              "functions": [
                {
                  "enchantment": "minecraft:fortune",
                  "formula": "minecraft:ore_drops",
                  "function": "minecraft:apply_bonus"
                },
                {
                  "function": "minecraft:explosion_decay"
                }
              ],
              "name": "examplemod:my_ingot"
            }
          ]
        }
      ],
      "rolls": 1.0
    }
  ]
}

We expected it to only drop the item when broken by a netherite pickaxe. However, it never dropped unless the pickaxe had silk touch and would then drop the ore as a block.

There is a forge tag for netherite tools:
