Custom tool that will drop a different items when mining.

[jibbity]

What i want to do is when  Iron ore is mined instead of dropping it'self I want it to drop another item ie Iron fragments, is this possible and does anyone have any information on how to do this. I also want to implement this with ores from the ore dictionary.

Thank you I will have a look into that.

I found the code by MrArcane111, this is the closest that I can find to do I want. How would I now change this code to be effective with the specific tool. I should point out that I don't have much experience with coding and modding.

@ForgeSubscribe
public void onHarvestBlocks(BlockEvent.HarvestDropsEvent event)
{
EntityPlayer player = event.harvester;
ItemStack heldItem = player.inventory.getCurrentItem();
Block block = event.block;

flameTouchAmount = EnchantmentHelper.getEnchantmentLevel(ArcaneEnchantments.flameTouch.effectId, heldItem);

if(heldItem == null)
{
	return;
} else if(flameTouchAmount > 0)
{
	isFlameTouched = true;
}

if(isFlameTouched = true)
{
	if(player.worldObj.rand.nextInt(2) == 0)
	{
		// So I was going to use FurnaceRecipes, but then I decided against it because this way gives me more flexibility
		if(block == Block.oreIron)
		{
			event.drops.add(new ItemStack(Item.ingotIron, 1));
			event.drops.remove(15);
		}
		if(block == Block.oreGold)
		{
			event.drops.add(new ItemStack(Item.ingotGold, 1));
			event.drops.remove(Block.oreGold);
		}
	}
}
}

I have not been able to get the block break events to work however I used another method. I created a custom recipe handler, I copied the minecraft FurnaceRecipies into a new class and modified it to do want I want, I also used the code from http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1964932-pick-that-smelts-ores/ and modified that .

Is there a better way of doing this such as over riding the idDropped and quantityDropped of a block? Although what I have works is very convoluted and strange.
