DuraTrack
by po4irk
DuraTrack is a client-side NeoForge utility that shows how much durability each held tool has left, with color-coded numbers.
What it does
Players hold a damageable tool and see its remaining durability update as the tool wears. The mod checks the item in the main hand continuously, so the number reflects use in real time rather than a value read once.
Alerts fire when the held tool reaches 50, 25, 15 and 5 percent of its durability. The remaining-durability number is colored according to the current percentage, so a worn tool stands out before it breaks. Messages appear in Russian or English, chosen automatically from the game language.
The mod targets NeoForge for Minecraft 1.21.1 only. It is client-side only, so the server does not need it and players can join a server without installing anything. DuraTrack is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Real-time durability readout
The remaining durability of the item in the main hand is shown and updated while the tool is in use.
Threshold alerts
Notifications trigger when the held tool drops to 50, 25, 15 and 5 percent of its maximum durability.
Color-coded numbers
The durability figure changes color with the current percentage, so the state of the tool is visible at a glance.

Alert text is shown in Russian or English, following the language the game is set to.

Use cases
Mining and exploring
A player mining deep in a cave can see a pickaxe nearing the end of its durability before it breaks mid-vein.
Combat
During a fight, a sword or bow that reaches the low thresholds gives an early warning, so a replacement can be ready.
Who it’s for: Players who want to track tool wear during survival play, and anyone who has lost a tool without warning. The mod is most useful on single-player or client-side setups, since it needs no server support.
