[Experimental] - Custom Items Don't Work Properly

A few things got fixed with the 1.16.100.58 beta (they have been striked through) but several things are still broken.

I've updated the reference pack and changed it to a .mcaddon file for easier installation

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached .mcworld file

Observed Results:

• Note the coin item exists in the chest. I got this coin with the /give command in v1.16.40.

• Note the name of the coin is item.coin.name.  (In v1.16.40 it was "Coin" because lang file has item.cleverlike:coin.name=Coin)  (I tried adding item.coin.name=Coin to lang file with no improvement)

• I can not use the /give command to obtain this item. (I also tried adding "category": "items" in the description section and no improvement) all variations of the command failed... /give @s Coin, /give @s cleverlike:coin, /give @s item.coin.name

• The /clear command  does not recognize the coin

• The coin item does exist, in the chest.

• When the coin item is dropped on the ground it does work in an entity target selector.  /kill @e[type=item,name=item.coin.name]  will successfully kill the coin.

Expected Results:

• The custom item should include the namespace.  Should be item.cleverlike:coin.name  but is now item.coin.name

• The item should work with the /give /clear /replaceitem commands.  These commands don't work with this custom item.

You haven't updated the item to 1.16 correctly, download the items pack and use that as reference.

Your behavior item is in 1.16 it needs to be 1.16.100 and there are several new things you need to do for the resource side

I did update the item version to "1.16.100" in testing and noticed no change.  I also added "category" using "items" as the value. I don't know the options. (I only found 4 different categories in the .appx file. Would be nice to have a complete list of options.)

I also added an entry for item.coin.name in the lang file and noticed no change.

I've fixed the item files for the resource and behavior packs and added some comments so you can see what needed to be updated and uploaded another world download, you also forgot to turn experimental gameplay on so remember to do that.

Thanks Gruntastic! That's really helpful. Custom items is not currently behind Experimental on 1.16.40, is it just needed because it forces the beta to access the latest code?  (Want to make sure this is not going to be experimental when this beta ships.)

To be honest I'm not entirely sure, I think it's because in the actual game files there's two item folders; 'items' and 'items_new'. It could be that they're phasing out the old method and experimental just triggers the new system but I have no idea.

It's still early days for the new system (evident by the amount of bugs) so we'll have to see if they stay behind experimental features or not in the coming betas.

@Gruntastic Just fyi, there's a typo in the word "category" in most jsons inside the items.mcaddon file you uploaded

Thanks for letting me know, fixed them.

Several issues have been resolved with 1.16.100.59 and they have been striked through.

But there are still a few issues regarding the digger component.

Still affects 1.16.100.60, no issues fixed with this update

Official version 1.16.100 has released and the issues above still not fully solve.

Durability wont work if the weapon or tool is in the gear/weapons Category in 1.16.201 i cant describe it much but i think if an itme recognize as a weapon/ or tool by minecraft durability will not work at all

I figured out how to get damage working, all that's left is efficiency not working.

I have custom weapons I've created. With both the "weapon" and "durability" the weapons will not take damage. If I remove the "weapon" component the durability will work like normal. The OPs work around will help but definitely not how things are supposed to be done.

It is strange that it is still impossible to break a workbench or a stove with custom objects.

The new render offsets have also caused items to appear massive both first and third person. I'm not sure why they felt the need to make it compulsory to use the new render offsets. Instead, they should have made the old way default and the new way optionable

Another part of this bug: Custom tools with durability gain infinite durability when enchanted with any level of unbreaking.

What about the duplication of the held item on death? Why does it happen and is there a workaround? It really bothers me in the modpack I am making.

There's one more component thats 100% broken the Minecraft:Shooter Component isn't working properly.

I've updated this bug report to provide clearer examples of what's broken. There are still other components that are broken like the shooter component in MCPE-101146 but this report is mainly about melee items.

Gruntastic, can you also note in the description of the ticket that the efficiency enchantment does not work with add-on tools
