About

This command increases the durability value of every item you currently have equipped or in your hotbar. It applies to armor, tools, weapons, and any other durability-tracked gear.

The command is useful when you need to quickly restore gear during testing, or when you want to verify how durability loss affects gameplay without waiting for items to wear naturally. For items that track *capacity* instead of durability, such as water containers or powered equipment, the command increases that value instead.
