Requires [Amber](https://modrinth.com/mod/amber). Fabric and Forge builds also require [Forge Config API Port](https://modrinth.com/mod/forge-config-api-port). **Bonded** levels up your gear as you use it. - Tools and weapons gain bonus stats through use - Repair and upgrade items at the Repair Bench and Tool Bench - Works with any tool/armor mod; upgrade paths need compat mods ![Bonded Benches GIF](https://i.imgur.com/mHjZWtm.gif) The leveling and repairing feature will work with any tool and armor mod out of the box. Upgrade paths, however, will require compat mods that I can make at your request, just hmu. ### How To Use It Use an item on the **Repair Bench** to repair it, consuming 1 of the repair material for that item. Use an item on the **Tool Bench** to upgrade it to the next tier. The item must be level 10 (configurable) and you must have the upgrade material in your inventory. ![Bonded Demo](https://i.imgur.com/bwwnunt.gif) ### Current Plan Fixing bugs and adding requested features.

Upgrade paths, however, will require compat mods that I can make at your request, just hmu. ## Addon API Bonded exposes an addon API under `com.iamkaf.bonded.api` for Minecraft 26.1.2. Use it to add Tool Bench upgrade paths, Repair Bench materials, custom experience caps, and integrations with Bonded's item state and events. ```java import com.iamkaf.bonded.api.BondedApi; import net.minecraft.world.item.Items; BondedApi.addUpgrade( MyItems.STEEL_PICKAXE.get(), MyItems.MYTHRIL_PICKAXE.get(), MyTags.Items.MYTHRIL_UPGRADE_MATERIALS ); BondedApi.addRepairMaterial(MyItems.STEEL_PICKAXE.get(), Items.IRON_INGOT); BondedApi.addExperienceCap(MyItems.STEEL_PICKAXE.get(), 250); ``` For item stack integrations, use `BondedItemStacks` to read or change max-damage modifiers and over-repair state. For event integrations, use `BondEvent` for experience, level-up, repair, and upgrade hooks, or `GameEvents.AWARD_ITEM_EXPERIENCE` to award Bonded experience from custom gameplay. Full API docs are available in the GitHub README. ## Credits - My amazing community - The Fabric, NeoForge, Forge teams and all the other awesome developers whose work I depend on - And most importantly, **Aris**, for always being there for me.
