Set item cooldown · Origins: Powerful Powers Handbook

origins-powerful-powers:set_item_cooldownentity actionplayers only

Puts an item on vanilla's item cooldown, or takes it off. It's the cooldown ender pearls and chorus fruit use: the item greys out in the hotbar and can't be used until it runs out. It works on any item. Vanilla checks it before every right-click use, so a block on cooldown can't be placed and a bow can't be drawn. Attacking with the item still works. Check it with item_on_cooldown.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`item`	Identifier	none	The item, like `minecraft:ender_pearl`. When it's set, `slot` is ignored.
`slot`	String	`"weapon.mainhand"`	Without `item`: the item in this slot. Same names as `Item.id`.
`ticks`	Integer	required	The new cooldown. `0` or less removes it.

It replaces any cooldown the item already has, longer or shorter.
Cooldowns belong to the item type: cooling down the pearl in your hand cools down every pearl.
An empty slot does nothing. A bad slot name is an error when the datapack loads.
The hotbar shows the change. Like vanilla's, it isn't saved and is gone after relogging.

Example: "Anchor". Getting hit locks your ender pearls for 5 seconds.
