Preventing Tool Breakage with Mining Fatigue

Enabling the Fatigue Safety Feature

To help physically stop you from breaking valuable gear in the heat of the moment, the mod can apply a status effect directly to your character.

1. Navigate to the in-game configuration menu for the mod.

2. Locate the GiveFatigue setting.

3. Change GiveFatigue from false (the default) to true.

4. Save your configuration.

When this option is enabled, the mod inflicts Mining Fatigue onto your player when your tool reaches its critical threshold. This drastically slows down your swing speed, preventing you from accidentally taking the final durability point off the tool.

Vanilla Server Limitations

While the Durability Notifier Mod is designed to be client-side and stay as vanilla server friendly as possible, there is an important exception:

• The GiveFatigue option does not function while you are connected to an unmodded, vanilla Minecraft server, as potion effects cannot be applied client-side without server cooperation.
• All other features—such as text messages (SendMessage) and audio cues (PlaySound)—will continue to work normally on vanilla servers.
