[Question] Is there a way to decrease the xp gain from mining

[infal]

I'm trying to increase the harvest count from mother lode perk (which works fine) but it seems that the xp gained is tied to the number of resources mined.

 

If I add a passive effect PlayerExpGain perc_subtract, it applies to all xp for all actions, not just mining.

 

I tried using a requirement HoldingItemHasTags tags=tool, which worked but had the issue that if you killed a zombie with a shovel etc the xp was affected.

 

I tried using requirement EntityTagCompare tags=oreWoodHarvest, which didn't seem to work; probably because terrain is not an entity?

 

I tried using a requirement EntityTagCompare target=other tags=zombie invert=true, which didn't seem to work; again probably because terrain is not an entity.

 

Is there anything else I can try?

look at materials.xml

Thanks, but I don't understand how that helps for a perk?

 

I tried passive effect PlayerExpGain perc_subtract with tags="earth" (a tag from materials.xml) and that didn't have any effect
