Durability+++ | The Essential Tool Protector
Stop losing your most valuable items to a single click. Durability+++ is a high-performance Skript designed to prevent tools, weapons, and armor-related items from breaking. When an item reaches 1 durability, the script "locks" it, ensuring it stays in the player's inventory until it can be repaired.
Ideal for Survival, Skyblock, and Prison servers where high-tier enchantments are expensive and losing gear is a major setback for players.
Why Choose Durability+++?
Fail-Safe Protection
Automatically cancels mining, combat, and interactions if the tool is about to break. Your players will never accidentally destroy their diamond pickaxe with Efficiency V and Fortune III ever again.
Instant Feedback System
- Visual Alert: Clean Action Bar notification that displays immediately when an item reaches critical durability
- Audio Cue: Distinctive Anvil Sound effect plays to grab player attention
- Impossible to Miss: Combined audio-visual feedback ensures players always know when their gear needs repair
Smart Filtering Technology
The script uses intelligent detection to:
- Ignore blocks and air interactions
- Skip items without durability (like food, potions, or building blocks)
- Ensure zero interference with normal gameplay mechanics
- Only activate when truly needed
Zero Performance Impact
- Lightweight Logic: Optimized code that runs efficiently in the background

How It Works (Technical Overview)
The script operates through four main event listeners:
- Block Break Event: Monitors when players mine blocks and checks tool durability before the break completes
- Entity Damage Event: Tracks weapon usage in combat and prevents final durability point consumption
- Right-Click Event: Watches for right-click interactions that would consume durability (tilling, stripping logs, etc.)
- Left-Click Event: Protects against left-click actions that reduce durability
Each event includes smart filtering to ensure only relevant items are checked, maintaining optimal performance.
