Mending Rework

SUMMARY:

MENDING REWORK revamps the mending enchant and durability as a whole, making anvil repairing less punishing so that a mending villager isn't a requirement in every world. The fabric version of this mod requires Fabric API.

FEATURE LIST:

• Repairing items in anvils costs 0 experience.
  • Does not increase future combine costs.
  • Items are repairable even if combining the item with another is too expensive.
  • Default chance of an anvil taking damage reduced to 6% (from 12%).
• Mending enchant no longer repairs items when you pickup experience.
  • Items with mending regain 10% more durability when repaired.
  • Items with mending never damage an anvil when renaming or repairing.
• Unbreaking enchant now works the same on armor as it does on tools.
  • Vanilla unbreaking 3 increases a tool's lifespan by 300% but only increases armor's lifespan by 43%.
  • With this mod, armor enchanted with unbreaking will last significantly longer.
  • This change was made because armor breaks very fast without vanilla mending.
• Netherite items are not repaired with netherite ingots.
  • Netherite items are repairable with diamonds or netherite scraps.
  • This change gives diamonds a permanent use in the endgame.
• Vanilla items without repair materials were given one:
  • Tridents are repaired with diamonds.
  • Crossbows and shears are repaired with iron ingots.
  • Bows and fishing rods are repaired with string.
  • Brushes are repaired with feathers.
  • Flint and steel is repaired with flint.
• Default repair material (Bottle O' Enchanting) is given to every item this mod detects that is compatible with mending and doesn't already have a repair material.
• JEI Integration in version 0.4+ displays anvil repair recipes for all items, vanilla or modded.
