Iron Repair Kits
by RollingDice
Iron Repair Kits adds repair kits that restore tool and weapon durability, in six tiers, and replaces the standard anvil repair route for many items.
What it does
Iron Repair Kits gives players a different way to repair items. Each kit is a crafted consumable sorted into six tiers, and using one restores durability on a matching tool or weapon. The mod also ships a new interface for choosing and applying kits, and the author describes the release as a set of bug fixes on top of earlier builds.
The author says the design aims to keep tool and weapon durability compatible with other mods, and the notes recommend pairing it with modded items, QQL and Swords Enough Items. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, across seven release versions. Installation runs on client and server, so the server and every player need the mod, and it is released under the MIT License but is not open source. The author notes that some versions will not receive future updates, and some known incompatibilities are listed in the text.
