TipTrigger for when a specific entity is mined (manually)

Post by jurgy »

Hi, as mentioned in my Documentation Improvement Request about the TipTrigger explanations, I was looking for a TipTrigger that fires when a player (manually) mines a specific entity. There is MineItemByRobotTipTrigger which can count the number of times a robot mines anything. But this can't filter on entity/item type. Similarly I would like a TipTrigger that fires after a player manually mines a specific entity/item a number of times.

Why?
I'm making a mod where you can tame cows by giving them food. It would be great if the tip for this can show up when a player first acquirs the food

Alternatively, this could also be implemented in an "specific item transferred into player's inventory" trigger. But I don't think that exists either.

Hope you consider it,
Thanks!
