How to Fix Broken Trims and Update Old Tools

If your custom tool trims stop working after a world update, or if the smithing table refuses to accept your templates and tools, you can repair the pack from inside the game using built-in maintenance commands.

Reloading the Data Pack

If recipes or the Toolsmithing Table stop responding as expected, you do not need to restart your entire server or reload every data pack in the world. Players with operator permissions can reload the Tool Trims logic by running:

/function tooltrims:load

This resets only the Tool Trims Data Pack systems and restores normal functionality.

Updating Legacy Trimmed Tools

When moving an older world forward, previously trimmed tools and weapons may display broken textures or outdated item data. Any player can convert their old items to the current format without needing operator permissions:

1. Place the outdated trimmed tool or weapon into your main hand so your character is actively holding it.

2. Open the chat bar and type:

/trigger update_item

3. Press Enter to execute the trigger.

The pack will automatically scan the item in your main hand and refresh its trim data. Repeat this step one by one for each older tool or weapon in your storage.
