Netherite Eternal

by Santitub

Netherite Eternal keeps netherite tools from breaking, so a tool at zero durability stays in the inventory and can be repaired instead of vanishing.

What it does

Netherite tools do not break when their durability runs out. A depleted tool is locked into an unusable state and remains in the player's inventory until it is repaired. The mod also gives clear messages that tell the player when a tool needs repair, so the state is noticed quickly.

The mod works with netherite tools as they are and does not change how the rest of the game handles other equipment. It runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it, and it requires Fabric API. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.20.1, with version 1.0.0 as the latest file from 2025-10-28. The author is Santitub, the code is not open source, and the project is released under All rights reserved, with public links for the source code and the issue tracker.

Key features

  1. Eternal durability

    Netherite tools are not destroyed when durability reaches zero, so the item stays in the player's inventory.

  2. Locked unusable state

    A tool at zero durability cannot be used to dig or attack until it is restored, which prevents accidental use of a broken tool.

  3. Repair with an anvil

    An anvil combined with netherite restores a depleted tool to usable condition.

  4. Clear repair messages

    Messages tell the player when a netherite tool needs repair, so the locked state is not mistaken for a bug.

Questions

Does Netherite Eternal need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is a required dependency, so it must be installed alongside Netherite Eternal on Fabric for 1.20.1.

Does the server need Netherite Eternal?

Yes. Servers that run it need every player to install it too.

Does Netherite Eternal work with other mods?

The author notes that it works with all netherite tools and is fully compatible with other mods, but the catalog does not list specific compatibility details.
