Is there any way to make it so the durability loss on hammers and excavators use 1 durability per block mined or dug up? I noticed it only uses 2 durability even when 9 blocks are mined or dug.

I tried as well and it does two durability. Very odd. I do not actually explicitly code damage. The hammer simple extends the vanilla pickaxe and takes the damage when a block is broken. the surrounding blocks are tested/broken after the target block is broken. I will take a look at why two occur.

Looking through the code, I see what I did wrong. It had to do with the return statement of the canMine() method. I will push and update today. It was the same issue on the excavators.

Fixed in update.

Just tryed the update is there no way to make it so that it actually uses durability for each block mined or dug? Cause now they only use 1 durability even though you mine 9 blocks? just seems cheaty. I am not sure if you know what i mean .

I understand what you mean. I have always had my area breaking tools only take one durability. Recently, in the fabric versions of the mod I added a config option for take durability based upon number of blocks broken. I may add that to the forge versions at some point.

I never agreed with the idea of taking 9 durability because it broke 9 blocks, I think it would take one durability because a hammer is a much larger tool than a pickaxe. However, I understand some folks can't get past that idea.

Huge thanks man I really appreciate the new update and I do love the mod by the way makes things simple and not OP like some of the other mods, Very vanillish IMO.

v1.4.11 will have a config option for hammer and excavator to take full damage
