About this project

What does Tool Warning add?

Tool Warning makes sure you never lose your favorite pickaxe again.

  • Slot overlay: Almost broken items get a pulsing red highlight with a “!” in your inventory and hotbar. The warning gets more urgent when the item is about to break.
  • Tooltip hint: Shows the remaining durability, e.g. “⚠ Almost broken! 12 of 250 durability left”.
  • Works with modded items: Works with every item that has durability: tools, weapons, armor, elytra and more.
  • Configurable: Set the warning threshold (default 10 %) and turn the overlay, pulsing or tooltip on or off in the in-game config.
  • Client-side only: Works on any server, including vanilla.

Supports NeoForge 1.21.11, 26.1.x, 26.2.x and 26.3.x.
