About this project
What does Mending Bob add?
In 1.21.11 Mojang made the change:
Items will no longer "bob" whenever their durability changes, such as when losing durability from an attack, or repaired by Mending
Myself and some others found this to be a useful feature, so i've reintroduced it into the game for items enchanted with mending. The bob is back baby!
