Block Durability
by _White_Mo_
Block Durability lets a server owner set how long individual blocks and whole regions last, and can make chosen blocks unbreakable.
What it does
Durability values can be assigned to single blocks or applied in batches across a selected region. A value of -1 makes a block unbreakable. Custom settings can be shown on screen through visual highlighting, so the builder can see which blocks carry a particular durability before any change takes effect.
Region selection works with WorldEdit, so an area chosen with WorldEdit commands can be passed to the durability settings. The commands that change durability require OP level 2 permission, and WorldEdit Forge must be installed alongside the mod for region selection to work.
The mod runs on the client and on the server, so both need it. It is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge 47.4.10 or newer, and the latest file is 1.0.1 for 1.20.1, released 2026-02-23. The code is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code is public.
Key features
Per-block durability
Each block can be given its own durability value, so the same block type may behave differently in different places.
Batch region settings
A durability value can be applied to every block inside a region in one operation rather than block by block.
Unbreakable blocks
Setting a durability of -1 marks a block as unbreakable, which protects structures from being mined by players.
Visual highlighting
Blocks with custom durability are outlined on screen, making it simple to check which ones have been changed.
Client-side configuration
A range of options controls how durability and highlighting appear on the client, and the server holds the rules that apply to play.

How it compares
Endurancecraft is a Forge mod that runs on client and server, released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and it is not open source. Unbreakable Blocks + is also a Forge mod for 1.20.1, on client and server, under All rights reserved, and it is not open source. Block_ID loads on Fabric and Forge and is client-side only under All rights reserved, so it does not change durability on a server.
