Additional Information

error persisted
gregtech-1.12.2-2.5.2-beta

I'm also seeing this on 2.5.2-beta.

On the current master branch, with commit hash 96e838b, I am unable to reproduce this. Can you provide further reproduction steps?

they lose the oredict that Crafttweaker or Groovyscript(not tested) assigns to them

before using the tool:

after using(where knife oredict)

Steps:

1. Assign any oredict to GT tool
2. Try to use tool in world
3. And now, where added oredict

Can confirm on 2.5.2 beta. Testing with current master now.

Personally, I am playing on TFGNH-Extended 4.2.2 if that helps. https://github.com/TerraFirmaGreg-New-Horizons/TFG-NewHorizons-1.12.2/releases/tag/R4.2.2

After further investigation we found the reason why, and it is something you can fix within your scripts.

Currently adding a GT tool to an oredict with CT, like this, will have the problem:

<ore:mySword>.add(<gregtech:sword>)

The root cause of this is a bug in the Forge OreDictionary, which uses the item's damage/durability to retrieve the ore dictionaries it possesses. It in reality should be using the item's metadata. In order to work around this bug, we create a special case where a tool is using the wildcard metadata upon oredict registration, so it behaves correctly.

In order to utilize our workaround, you will need to adjust your scripts to look like the following:

<ore:mySword>.add(<gregtech:sword:*>)
// or
<ore:mySword>.add(<gregtech:sword:32767>)

Both methods are equivalent. * or 32767 is the item meta wildcard value, which is intended for use when you want to accept any meta value for your itemstack.

If you add GT tools to ore dictionaries with the meta wildcard value, you should no longer experience this bug.

Nice, it's really works, thank you!
