expRepair
Take control of your Mending enchantment. expRepair lets you decide when and how your gear gets repaired using your stored XP — no more losing XP to random orb pickups at the wrong time.
About this Mod
expRepair
expRepair is a lightweight Minecraft mod that lets players spend their XP to automatically repair Mending-enchanted gear — without relying on XP orbs dropping near you. Choose between passive background repair or manual on-demand repair, with full server-side control over defaults and permissions.
✨ Features
🔁 Passive Repair
Automatically repairs your equipped Mending gear every second using your stored XP. Set an XP floor so passive repair never spends below a minimum level, keeping you safe from dropping too low.
🔧 Manual Repair
Sneak + right-click in the air while holding a damaged Mending item to instantly repair it using your XP. Great for quick fixes without waiting for passive repair to kick in.
🔒 Mutually Exclusive Modes
Passive and manual repair cannot both be active at the same time — enabling one automatically disables the other. Both can be disabled simultaneously if you prefer to manage repairs yourself.
💾 Persistent Settings
All player settings are saved permanently to the server. Settings survive disconnects, restarts, deaths, and dimension changes.
🛠️Admin Controls
Server administrators have full control over mod behavior:
- Set server-wide defaults for new players
- Enable or disable passive and/or manual repair server-wide
- Override individual player settings
- Broadcast or silently reload configuration changes
📋 Commands
All commands support both /exprepair and the /er shorthand.

Server lagging with expRepair – how to optimize performance?
