Hey everyone, first i wanna do a technic armor that uses energy, i tried making it with using durability, so i made crafting recipes that my technic element + a part of the armor

to fill the armors durability...

sry for bad explaining btw

anyways here is the code:
        GameRegistry.addShapelessRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_helmet), new Object[] {ModItems.texotek_helmet, new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_element)});
        GameRegistry.addShapelessRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_chestplate), new Object[] {ModItems.texotek_chestplate, new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_element)});
        GameRegistry.addShapelessRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_leggings), new Object[] {ModItems.texotek_leggings, new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_element)});
        GameRegistry.addShapelessRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_boots), new Object[] {ModItems.texotek_boots, new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_element)});

thing is it only works when the armor has full durabilty

How do i do that?
Im new to coding

Thanks btw!

Do what?

 

A basic level of programming knowledge is required to make a mod. Jumping into Minecraft modding without any programming experience is like trying to learn swimming in the middle of the ocean during a thunderstorm. Without a lifejacket. You won't learn to swim, you will just drown.

I have experienced with coding i did already a full Armor and Tool Kit also A world generated ore, i just wonder if you could explain me how to do that Durability damage thing

 

 

 

C and C++ and a few years ago GML (The Script part, nothing with drag and drop)

Well, at least you didn't lie about it.

 

So, now what is your question about the "durability damage thing"?

I'm wondering how i can make that my texotek_element can repair my texotek armor,

here is the code what i tried:
        GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_helmet), new Object[] {"###", "# #", '#', ModItems.texotek_plate});
        GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_chestplate), new Object[] {"# #", "###", "###", '#', ModItems.texotek_plate});
        GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_leggings), new Object[] {"###", "# #", "# #", '#', ModItems.texotek_plate});
        GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_boots), new Object[] {"# #", "# #", '#', ModItems.texotek_plate});

but it doesn't work since that recipe only allows full durability armor to take

so i wondered how i could do that also damaged armor parts would work for the recipe

You pass it to the ItemStack constructor.

like this?         GameRegistry.addShapelessRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_helmet), new Object[] {ModItems.texotek_helmet, new ItemStack(ModItems.texotek_element).OreDictionary.WILDCARD_VALUE});

No. Please learn the Java basics before make a mod.
