Draining hunger instead of item durability

[Dinousorus]

Hi!

I'm making a modded character. Everything is fine, except that I'm stuck with an idea and I have no idea how to code it… I don't even know if it's possible, so any help will be appreciated :)

I'd like my character to drain hunger instead of losing durability of the items he uses and stuff he wear. For example, if I use a firestaff, the idea woold be that the firestaff doesn't lose durability but instead my character loses hunger. If I wear an armor and take damage, the armor won't take damage but I'll lose hunger. If I wear a winter hat it won't lose durability over time but my hunger will drain faster…

 

Thanks a lot and have a nice day :)
