Mechanics

Dyeing

All hats in the mod can be dyed using standard Minecraft dyes. To dye a hat, place the hat and the desired dye in a crafting grid. This allows players to match their utility gear with their aesthetic preferences.

Enchanting

Useful Hats can be enchanted to improve their base statistics: * Efficiency: Increases the speed boost of the Chopping, Mining, and Straw hats (up to 150%). It also increases the speed level of the Postman Hat and the levitation level of the Shulker Helmet. * Respiration: Increases the duration of the Conduit Power effect provided by the Aquanaut Helmet (up to 4 minutes). * Unbreaking/Mending: Highly recommended for the Mushroom Hat and Ender Helmet to prevent them from breaking during use.

Durability Consumption

Hats typically lose durability only when their specific effect is active. For example, the Mining Hat loses durability while the player is mining blocks, and the Mushroom Hat loses durability every time it restores the player's hunger.
