February 10, 20178 yr Item#onUpdate is called every tick while the Item is in your inventory. Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored! Make a thread on the appropriate board for support. 1.12 -> 1.13 primer by williewillus. 1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support. http://www.howoldisminecraft1710.today/
February 10, 20178 yr No, Item#onUpdate only works in your player inventory. You'd have to use a tick event to update the Item in the world or inside blocks. Don't PM me with questions.

February 10, 20178 yr Don't use a tick event to update the item if its inside an inventory. You would have to search the entire world for inventories, then search every slot in the inventory. And do that every tick. This is a bad, bad idea. Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

Well, he could use the tick event to count ticks, and do something like every 10-20 seconds, then go through World#loadedTileEntityList for each inventory loaded in the world. Might still be expensive, but better than doing it every tick for the entire world. Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored!

February 10, 20178 yr Author Ok, and what if i want to make the item consume XP from the player to repair, is there a way to remove the XP from a player?
February 10, 20178 yr Yes. Go look at the EntityPlayer class, you'll find it.

February 10, 20178 yr Sounds like the Mending enchantment. Find its code and see what it does. The debugger is a powerful and necessary tool in any IDE, so learn how to use it. You'll be able to tell us more and get better help here if you investigate your runtime problems in the debugger before posting.
February 10, 20178 yr Just now, jeffryfisher said: Sounds like the Mending enchantment. Find its code and see what it does. Mending intercepts exp pickups. I think he wants it to repair by extracting exp from the player. It's doable. I've done it before (not as a mending item, but as a block that when you touched it would leech your exp away). There were a few edge cases to handle, but it's not that hard.
