Solved Break armor after durability is 0

So I have a plugin that manually damages pieces of armor:
Every 5 seconds, boots.setDurability((short) (boots.getDurability() + 1));
The damaging works, but the item doesn't break after it's max durability has been breached. How would I make the armor break? Is there a way to get the max durability of the armor?

 

If you took the 5 seconds to google or use doxygen:

http://jd.bukkit.org/rb/doxygen/d9/...mStack.html#a658a1597ec170ac915b7944f5b29ccbe

Check that, remove it if <0

 

@Billythekidzz
I assume your using a repeating task that degrades the armor each 5 seconds? So add a check in this if the armor piece is equal to 0 and if it is then remove the armor piece that has broken

Correct me if I'm wrong, but when getdurability returns 0 that means the armor is full health? And a higher durability means the armor has taken more hits. Problem is when the durability is high enough for the armor piece to be destroyed, armor health keeps going into the negative. How do I get it destroyed?

 

@Billythekidzz
Maybe but it was just a example of what you can do.
As I said before, check if the durability gets to a certain number, google the correct ones by seeing the durability of the armor. Then in your repeating task do a check. If durability = something something then get the inventory and remove the armor by doing removeItem.

 

@Coopah
I was thinking about doing that, but that would take ages due to there being 4 pieces of armor, then each type of material having a different durability. That's why I asked if there was such a thing as checking max durability or a faster method of doing this.

 

@Billythekidzz
It would take like 30 lines of code, it isn't much lol.

 

Material#getMaxDurability()

 

Alright, I did it. Just for future reference for others who want getMaxDurability(),

Code:

public double getMaxHelmetDurability(Player player){
        PlayerInventory inv = player.getInventory();
        double var = 0d;
        if(inv.getHelmet() != null){
            ItemStack armor = inv.getHelmet();
            if(armor.getType() == Material.CHAINMAIL_HELMET){
                var = 166d;
            }
            if(armor.getType() == Material.LEATHER_HELMET){
                var = 56d;
            }
            if(armor.getType() == Material.GOLD_HELMET){
                var = 78d;
            }
            if(armor.getType() == Material.IRON_HELMET){
                var = 166d;
            }
            if(armor.getType() == Material.DIAMOND_HELMET){
                var = 364d;
            }
        }else{
            var = 0d;
        }
        return var;
    }   
    public double getMaxChestplateDurability(Player player){
        PlayerInventory inv = player.getInventory();
        double var = 0d;
        if(inv.getChestplate() != null){
            ItemStack armor = inv.getChestplate();
            if(armor.getType() == Material.CHAINMAIL_CHESTPLATE){
                var = 241d;
            }
            if(armor.getType() == Material.LEATHER_CHESTPLATE){
                var = 81d;

            }
            if(armor.getType() == Material.DIAMOND_CHESTPLATE){
                var = 529d;
            }
        }else{
            var = 0d;

        return var;
    }

        return var;
    }

 

@Billythekidzz Or you can ignore my post and go the long way I guess.
