Connected

Connected adds a new enchantment that links block breaking and fall safety.

• The Connected enchantment can be applied to most tools and weapons (mining tools, bows, crossbows, tridents, fishing rods, and other durability-based gear) via the new data-driven definition. A starter enchanted book is granted on first join if the player doesn’t already have the enchantment.
• Breaking a block with a Connected-enchanted item on the server will automatically break up to 64 adjacent blocks of the same type (6-directional search). Blocks respect normal permission checks; unbreakable blocks are skipped, and tools still take durability damage for each extra block.
• Any player carrying an item with the Connected enchantment applied takes no fall damage while it’s in their inventory or equipped.

Important details and behaviors:

• The enchantment data lives under the connected namespace with its own item tag (connected:enchantable/connected) aggregating common tool enchantable tags.
• Effects beyond the core behavior are handled in code; the JSON definition intentionally has no extra vanilla-style effects.
• Fall immunity requires the enchantment to be applied to an item (stored books don’t trigger it), though stored or applied copies both prevent the login gift from duplicating.

Known limitations / future ideas:

• The block break search stops after 64 matching blocks and only follows face-connected neighbors; diagonals won’t chain.
• Durability loss is applied to the enchanting hand’s item for each bonus break; offhand tools are supported, but other inventory slots won’t trigger the chain break.
