Is Debug Stick a Good "Dummy" item

[next nimbus]

I am making a datapack that adds custom items that are usable, In survival debug stick do not have any use. I was using Jigsaw but found a bug where if the use consume timer is 0 and looking at a block the item disappears.

I'm not a pro, but I would say that it's not a good item because if you use it in creative it won't work properly. But you can take another item that has no use, a sword or something like that and use it instead.

[next nimbus]

Well same with Jigsaw as in creative you can place it down

[dusk drum]

I would say probably not

[next nimbus]

So what would you suggest? A sword as well?

[opal dune]

Or carrot on a stick, or warped fungi on a stick

[dusk drum]

No? Probably different command blocks, Jigsaw blocks (don't know what jssue you're talking about with them), or Barrier/Bedrock/Light Blocks with attribute modifier components that reduce the holder's block interaction range to 0

[next nimbus]

okay is is a bug with consume component, if you are looking at the ground when you right click the thing and if the consume seconds is 0, you still place it down as you use it even in survival but the item disappears before giving you the remainder

[dusk drum]

Interesting

Well perhaps try setting the block interaction range to 0 for that as well

[next nimbus]

I do not want that. I want this items to feel seemless

And they are atm

You use them and they go on cooldown and from players perspective it is similar to using a bow

If the custom item doesn’t need to be used in crafting recipes, then I like to use trial keys

They have no uses besides opening vaults. And keys with different components can’t open vaults anyway

[next nimbus]

Can you not use trial_key to open a vault still? Or is it the component that let you open it

[mental zealot]

The components of the key must match the “Lock” field on the vault itself.
If you change the components, then it won’t match. Thus it won’t be able to open a vault

[next nimbus]

Oki I will look into it ty

Remember that Xolicks said this is only of the custom item doesn't need to be used in recipes

Your whole point is that your custom items are ingredients, which is why you want to use these unobtainable items

[next nimbus]

no they are not ingredient I do not think I told I needed to

[dusk drum]

Then you don't need to use an unobtainable item. You can do whatever you want

Poisonous Potato is a popular option

coposter

composter'

[dusk drum]

Don't believe so, no

[next nimbus]

Oh YEP POISINOUS POTATO TIME

[dusk drum]

The entire point of Poisonous Potatoes is that they aren't useful for anything. You just need to disable their food component

[jaunty fox]

music discs works well too
