I did some searching and all I found was this thread which is 3 years old. I want to edit the set of blocks which can be harvested without holding a tool. For example, I want the player to be unable to harvest dirt blocks without a shovel.

 

Is this possible to do? If so, does the method in the thread I linked to still work or is there a different way to do it? Is it possible to make a block breakable but not harvestable (like breaking stone with bare hands in vanilla) - or is it only possible to make a block unbreakable by hand?

 

Edit: Solved by using

PlayerEvent.BreakSpeed

to change how long it takes to break the block and

HarvestDropsEvent

to remove the drops for blocks which I want to be un-harvestable.

PlayerEvent.HarvestCheck

PlayerEvent.HarvestCheck

 

I tried this but it doesn't work. When I searched for it, I found this old thread which points out that

HarvestCheck

is not fired when trying to harvest something that can normally be harvested with bare hands.

You'll probably want to subscribe to

PlayerEvent.BreakSpeed

to slow down the breaking and

BlockEvent.HarvestDropsEvent

to remove the drops.

 

I do something similar here, but this prevents the block from being broken at all unless the player has the correct tool.

Thanks, yeah that's what I went with in the end and I've got it working successfully now.
