Versions
Imbue your equipment with the power of Hex Casting.
Adds a new spell that lets you embed a pattern list into an items and executes it when a specific trigger condition is met. Information about the triggering event is pushed to stack before execution for use by your hex.
Features
- Craft amethyst tools that cast after breaking a block, pushing the location of the block to the stack. Enchantments propagate when the Break Block spell is cast using this tool.
- Wield an amethyst sword that casts on hit, pushing the targeted entity to the stack.
- Wear amethyst armour with a variety of triggers. Helmets cast on aggro, chestplates when damaged, leggings on death and boots when falling. The stack is initialised with relevant iotas.
- Fire amethyst arrows, with an embedded hex and a small media supply. Casts on impact with an entity or a block, pushing itself and any struck entity to the stack.
Config
The chestplate damage trigger ignores damage types listed in the tag hexchanting:bypasses_armour_trigger. By default this includes only generic_kill (as used by /kill).

No more items with negative durability. Probably.

- Fix items ending up on negative durability when trying to draw excessive amounts of media. Items will now break when trying to use more media than they hold.

## Chestplate Timing Control
You can now control whether the chestplate damage trigger fires before or after the damage is applied to the player.
### Before
Before is the old behaviour and remains the default. The hex is triggered and runs before damage is actually applied to the player. This permits tricks like applying a precise amount of absorption.
### After
After is the new behaviour. It must be opted-into so as not to break existing hexes. The damage is applied to the player and only then does the hex fire. This prevents simple immortality hexes. The damage passed to the hex is the damage taken after factors like armour and absorption are applied.
### Configuration
The behaviour is controlled by a configuration flag in the file

### Configuration
The behaviour is controlled by a configuration flag in the file
hexchanting.properties in your mod configuration directory. Changing this flag will affect all hexes in new and existing worlds. It is technically safe to update this value without creating a new world, however hexes relying on the old triggering behaviour may no longer work as intended.## What's Changed
