Visible Durability!
by t3oCorp
With Visible Durability! installed, the durability of a tool, weapon or piece of armor appears as a line of text under its name when the player hovers over it.
What it does
The mod shows the remaining durability of any item that takes damage, including swords, armor, tools and items such as shears and flint steel. The value is displayed as current over maximum, so a player can see how much use is left without counting it from the item's bar alone.
Each part of the display can be adjusted: the tooltip can carry an optional prefix, and the text color and boldness can be changed. The settings live in a client-side config file, so a player sets them once and the choice applies to that player's own game. It runs on the client only, and the server does not need it.
The mod is built for Minecraft Beta, on the Babric loader, for game version b1.7.3 only. Its dependencies are Station API, Glass Config API and Glass Networking, all of which must be installed for it to start.

Key features
Durability tooltip
Hovering over an item adds a durability line directly under its name, so the value is read without leaving the inventory.
Current and maximum values
The line shows the remaining durability next to the maximum, for example a count of uses left out of the full total.
Adjustable text
An optional prefix can be added, and the color and boldness of the durability text can be changed in the config.
Covers most damageable items
Swords, armor, tools and other items that lose durability, such as shears and flint steel, all receive the display.

Use cases
Checking gear before a trip
Players can read how many uses remain on a pickaxe or set of armor from the inventory, before entering a cave or a long expedition.
Playing on Beta
The mod suits players who keep to the Minecraft Beta experience and want a clearer item readout in that version.
Who it’s for: Players who run Minecraft Beta b1.7.3 with the Babric loader and want durability shown directly on items. Because only the client needs it, it can be added to a single-player game or a multiplayer client without any change on the server.
