Weapon Damage

If i make an itemstack, how would i set its weapon damage?

 

Use ItemStack#setDurability

 

I Actually ment weapon damage

 

Depending on what you mean, there are several ways to set the damage. You could add the sharpness enchantment, but I am assuming you don't want to do that. You could check the item meta/lore on an EntityDamageByEntity event, and if it equals something, you can set the damage to more or less.

 

So I cant set the actual damage that is displayed underneath the weapon? Well id have to try the other way then, thanks.

 

@MinecraftMart
Save the data somewhere of how much damage it should give (ItemMeta, Config, Map), and call the onEntityDamageByEntity event and check if the item has that data.

 

@MinecraftMart You can clear the lore of the item, and set the damage in the lore with a custom lore, then read that line of lore when setting the damage.
