Hey guys,

 

I am wondering how would you give a tool unlimited uses

 

I dont want the tool to ever break also i dont want the durability bar to appear

 

So giving the item a massive number like 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000  wouldnt work

 

Thanks in advance

Okay. Make sure to do a few things

1: Don't extend itemtool, extend item

2: just change a float that's something like effeciancyOnCorrectBlock

Wow far easier than I thought

Over ride these two methods from ItemTool:

    /**
     * Current implementations of this method in child classes do not use the entry argument beside ev. They just raise
     * the damage on the stack.
     */
    public boolean hitEntity(ItemStack par1ItemStack, EntityLiving par2EntityLiving, EntityLiving par3EntityLiving)
    {
        par1ItemStack.damageItem(2, par3EntityLiving);
        return true;
    }

    public boolean onBlockDestroyed(ItemStack par1ItemStack, World par2World, int par3, int par4, int par5, int par6, EntityLiving par7EntityLiving)
    {
        if ((double)Block.blocksList[par3].getBlockHardness(par2World, par4, par5, par6) != 0.0D)
        {
            par1ItemStack.damageItem(1, par7EntityLiving);
        }

        return true;
    }

 

and remove the part which damages it.

 

this should also work, and allows for tool materials and effectiveness without having to add extra stuff to your item code

take any item and add this code to your main mod class

MinecraftForge.setToolClass(ITEM, "pickaxe", HARVEST_LEVEL);

HARVEST_LEVEL is an int 0-3 where: 0 = wood/gold; 1 = stone; 2 = iron; 3 = diamond.
