ToolRemains
ToolRemains
Information:
ToolRemains is a light-weight plugin which I find should be an addition to minecraft in and of itself. When an item is broken, some of its base components will be given to the player. For example, if I were to break a diamond chestplate, there is a chance that it will return to me 0 - 5 diamond gems. This is only for players and should not affect other entities. There are a few tools that are not supported for remains yet such as flint and steel, shears, and chain armour. All other breakable items are supported and will return a few of the respective items. It is impossible to return all raw crafting items (Ex: You will never get 8 diamonds upon breaking a diamond chestplate)
Future Plans:
Due to this plugin being very small and light-weight, there aren't a whole lot of planned changes. If you have any suggestions, please let me know whether it's in a ticket, or in the comments. A ticket would be much preferred though
Metrics:
This plugin using Metrics to send basic, anonymous server information to a website known as mcstats.org. This specific plugin will send information to http://mcstats.org/plugin/toolremains. If you would like to see the information your server is giving, please visit that website. If you do not agree with the information being sent to metrics, you may disable it under the Plugins -> PluginMetrics -> Config.yml file and set "metrics.org-opt-out" to true
Remains Guide:
If you would like a list of all items that have a possibility of giving a remain, and what their remains may have a chance of being, please view the following page:

Bugs, Suggestions and Improvements:
Perhaps you have an idea for something that should be added? An idea to improve my plugin at all? Or maybe you just have a bug that I couldn't seem to figure out. If you have anything listed above, make a ticket! I get e-mail notifications for when you create a ticket, and I will get to those a lot faster than a comment on my post. That also helps me organize many of the suggestions and bugs I've had in previous versions. Tickets are always preferred over comments, but if you just wanna be nice and rate this plugin based on your usage, feel free to leave a comment instead
Social Media Updates:
I have created a Twitter account specifically for development updates and feature sneak peeks for all of my plugins. I will be posting updates about where I'm at on plugin updates, and open to suggestions on this social media website. If you have a Twitter account and would like to get in contact with me, my development Twitter handle is @2008Minecraft It will be full of sneak peeks for you all to drool at until I fully release it. You'll also get tweets every time I publish an update for a plugin, so keep an eye on that as well ;) Social media is not a necessary, but only optional if you want to know a few things before others do.

Of course! I knew most people wouldn't really want to bother with permissions. If no permission plugin is present, or no permission nodes specified to a group, it defaults to true. By default, all players will be able to receive remains from tools. No worries! :D
The only time someone would NOT receive the remains, would be if a permission plugin negated that permission node
If it would not be much trouble, could you add in the config a 'usePermissions' bool? I like making servers with plugins that don't require a permissions system Of course I have not checked. Perhaps this plugin will just work if there is no permissions plugin like some plugins do.
@jahaanjain
Yes they are implemented already ^-^ Latest version should have them. It is, "toolremains.remains"
Are the permission nodes implemented yet? As @PaintTheZombie said, I would really like this to be available to only the Higher ranks in my server. Thanks <3
This plugin is by no means dead. It is mature and no updates will be provided unless absolutely necessary. I will be creating one final update later today before the 1.9 update. The update for 1.9 WILL include returns for shields and all other related tools and weaponry
@2008Choco
Thanks, much appreciated! By no means do you have to make that edit for me! and if you are; definitely take your time, I'm in no hurry; and I'll keep my eye out on the page. I'm a slow server builder atm lol
@PaintTheZombie
No there are not any current permission nodes for this plugin. However, I would be more than happy to code those in. It's a very fast and easy change.
I'm going to hesitate from adding it for a little while though. A couple of days at least. This morning, a version 1.8.8 was released and I'm awaiting a CraftBukkit update. As soon as that is released, all my plugins will support Snapshot 1.8.8 and I will add in those permission nodes for you :)
If all else fails and a 1.8.8 is not released, I will just directly add it into the 1.9 snapshot version
is there permissions for this plugin?? i don't see any listed so i figure I'd just ask. Cause I really like this idea, but it's like it to be only available to higher ranks on my server.
I had been hoping to find a plugin that for all armor, tools and weapons that are iron, gold or diamond wont break, they just stop being able to do anything just before breaking, with a message- "This item is too damaged to use."
So then you can scrap it or repair it.
@Barrimor
There is no version specific code for this plugin. I see no reason for it to not work in 1.7.9
Will it works for 1.7.9 please? Thank!
Love this plugin. its absolutely great. Be sure to carry on developing this plugin.
@SlimeDog
No doubt. I just temporarily denied it because I wanted to put out custom messages ASAP. It'll be in 1.3 for sure though :) Don't you worry. I'm not done with this whole configuration file
Thanks for the config options. Very useful. Please allow reload from the console.
Hi Choco Its me Xearth777! Thanks for making this it will really help in my server with my friends now we don't have to mine for 40 million days we can reuse our tools thanks for being awesome lots of love.
Nice. Players like it. A little gift when you use up a tool.
It would be nice to be able to configure the messages, as well as the remains.
@MineCraftMyph
I wanted to do this originally, but it was a little harder to do than I had intended. I over complicated this plugin by a lot. Lol. I will attempt to make a configuration option for those though. We'll have to see. Not sure how detailed this config will be
Very nice plugin, we need a configuration file for what items are given when a item breaks. Including custom named items and lore.
good! its useful :D
