For my mod I have tools which can have different looks but I need to keep the damage in the resulting item when I craft the new tool.

 

GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(AlloycraftItems.aluminumtooltest, 1, 1), new Object[]{
        	" A ",
        	" B ",
        	"   ",
        	'B', Items.dye, 'A', new ItemStack(AlloycraftItems.aluminumtooltest, WILDCARD_VALUE, WILDCARD_VALUE)
    	});

What is this recipe supposed to do?  Normally damage is used either for damage or as metadata.  How is your aluminiumtooltest expected to change colour?

Thanks for responding but I just forgot to change the resulting item to a different one.

Sorry dude I have absolutely no idea what you mean

 

Have you solved your own question?

No not yet Here I made an example I have a diamond sword with 5 damage and then if I craft it with lapis then I get an iron sword with the same damage as the diamond sword.

Ah ok.

 

I think you will need to implement a custom IRecipe for that.

 

GameRegister.addRecipe(myRecipe implements IRecipe);

 

-->Your myRecipe can match diamond sword plus lapis and return an iron sword with the damage copied from the diamond sword.

Alright sweet so I got the class made now do I use a if statement to get if the items are there and then replace it with the other item?

Hi

 

RecipeRepairItem and RecipeBookCloning are good vanilla examples of how to write an IRecipe.

Alright I'll start looking into those classes. Thank you so much though for helping me with this.
