Miscellaneous

Custom Food

This mechanic allows you to set food-related properties for any food item. This means you can create foods which refill different amounts of hunger and saturation. It also lets you set a replacement item for when the food has been consumed.

Below is a config example of the mechanic-part for a custom food:

On 1.20.5+ use the new Food-Component instead

Mechanics:
  food:
    hunger: 10
    saturation: 10
    replacement:
      oraxen_item: any_oraxen_itemid      # Can also be minecraft_type or crucible_item
    effect_probability: 0.35              # The probability of the effect being applied, default is 1.0 / 100%
    effects:
      hunger:                             # Must be a valid potion effect, can find a list https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/potion/PotionEffectType.html 
        amplifier: 1                      # If not set, defaults to 0
        duration: 20                      # Duration in seconds. If not set, defaults to 1 second
        is_ambient: true                  # If not set, defaults to true
        has_particles: true               # If not set, defaults to true
        has_icon: true                    # If not set, defaults to true
      night_vision:
        duration: 60

Backpack

This allows you to turn any item into a backpack.\

This mechanic might cause duplication issues! If you find any please open a bug-report and we will fix them as soon as possible!\

There is currently a known dupe, if your backpack is using a stackable material like paper. Make sure to specify that the item should be unstackable, like shown below.\

Per item configuration

backpack:
  displayname: backpack
  material: PAPER
  unstackable: true #Recommend making it unstackable to avoid abovementioned dupe
  Mechanics:
    backpack:
      rows: 4
      title: "<red>Backpack"                      #Optional, Default: "Backpack"
      open_sound: "entity.shulker.open"       #Optional, Default: "entity.shulker.open"
      close_sound: "entity.shulker.close"     #Optional, Default: "entity.shulker.close"

Music Disc

This allows you to make custom music discs with custom sounds. To add a sound simply follow the default example by adding it into Oraxen/sound.yml\

Any stereo sounds will not play at a specific position or following an entity. If you want this you need to make sure your .ogg sound-file is in mono sound format.

On 1.21+ use the new JukeboxPlayable-Component instead

song is the namespace:sound.name as you defined it in sound.yml. If your sound.yml entry looks like this:

sounds:
  my_music_disc_song.mysong:
    category: record
    sound: mysong.ogg

This means your .ogg file is in the path Oraxen/sounds/mysong.ogg, and your sound-ID is my_music_disc_song.mysong with the namespace minecraft. If you are importing sounds.json into another namespace, the namespace would naturally not be minecraft

Mechanics:
  music_disc:
    song: "minecraft:my_music_disc_song.mysong"

Durability

This allows you to change the durability of an item created with Oraxen. Minecraft vanilla wasn't made to handle that kind of modifications, this is why this system is not perfect. You'll not see the good durability on your item, it will just work as a percentage. What that means is that if for example you create a pickaxe based off the wooden pickaxe (which has 59 of durability by default) and you change it to 5900, you'll still see 59 of durability on your item. But you'll need to break 100 blocks in order to lose of one durability. The cool thing is that the displayed bar will be updated correctly.

On 1.20.5+ use the new Durability-Component instead

Per item configuration

There are two options available : ratio and fixed_amount. You can put only one of these two options on the same item. Ratio allows you to repair a percentage of your item (0.15 will repair 15% of maximum durability while 1.0 will repair it to 100%). Fixe amount repairs a fixed amount of your item durability (put 10 if you want to add 10 durability points to your item for example).

Mechanics:
  durability:
    value: 5000 #diamond sword is 1561 by default

Misc Mechanic

This mechanic has a bunch of small changes you can make to your item. What they each do should be pretty self-explanatory.

On 1.20.5+ use the new FireResistant-Component instead of burns_in_X below

Mechanics:
  misc:
    breaks_from_cactus: true
    burns_in_fire: true
    burns_in_lava: true
    disable_vanilla_interactions: false
    can_strip_logs: false
    piglins_ignore_when_equipped: false
    compostable: false
    allow_in_vanilla_recipes: true

Repair

This mechanic allows you to use an item to repair another one (which uses vanilla durability or oraxen custom). By default this mechanic is binded to iron, gold and diamond cogs. To use them you just need to click on the item you want to repair.

Per item configuration

Mechanics:
  repair:
    ratio: 0.10 # 10%
    fixed_amount: 10 # or 10 durability points

Global configuration

If you enable oraxen_durability_only, this mechanic will only work with items using oraxen Durability mechanic.

repair:
  enabled: true
  oraxen_durability_only: false

Commands

This allows you to execute commands (as the console, a player or op player). If this option is not often the most elegant it has the merit of simplifying a lot of things. You can create a cooldown between usages, check if the player has a specific permission and use the item (understand decrease its amount by one when the command is performed).

Per item configuration

Mechanics:
  commands:
    cooldown: 5 # example cooldown in seconds. This is optional
    permission: "my.awesome.perm" # required permission. This is optional
    one_usage: true # should the amount decrease when used? Default: false
    console:
      # e.g. to kill the player
      - "kill %p%"
    player:
      # e.g. the player performs /spawn
      - "spawn"
    opped_player:
      # e.g. the player gives himself a diamond sword
      - "give diamond_sword 1"

Armor Effects

This allows you to bind a Potion Effect to an armor (or a hat) so that when you equip it you'll get the effect.

Per item configuration

Here is a list of all potion effect types available.

Mechanics:
  armor_effects:
    night_vision: # the potion effect type
      duration: 10
      amplifier: 0
      ambient: true # Makes potion effect produce more, translucent, particles.
      particles: true # whether this effect has particles or not
      icon: true # whether this effect has an icon or not

You can also make an effect only apply if the entire set it equipped.

Mechanics:
  armor_effects:
    night_vision:
      requires_full_set: true
      ...
