Tools, Armor and Shields

# Tools, Armor and Shields A vanilla-friendly Fabric mod that significantly expands your survival and terraforming capabilities. This project consolidates five individual modules into a single, cohesive mod, introducing new tiers of equipment based on Amethyst, Emerald, and Obsidian, alongside powerful multi-block mining tools and uniquely customized shields. ## Features ### Heavy-Duty Tools (Hammers & Excavators) Hammers function as upgraded pickaxes for mining stone-like materials, while Excavators function as upgraded shovels for digging dirt, sand, and gravel. Both tools mine multiple blocks simultaneously and feature a dynamic visual block outline to show precisely which blocks will be destroyed before you mine them. The tools are available in four tiers, each with varying mining radiuses and depths: - **Iron Tier**: Mines a **3x3x1** area (1 block deep). - **Redstone Tier**: Mines a **3x3x3** area (3 blocks deep). - **Emerald Tier**: Mines a massive **5x5x1** area (1 block deep). - **Diamond Tier**: Mines an ultimate **5x5x5** area (5 blocks deep). _Note: The tools dynamically skip blocks they are not designed to mine (e.g., an Excavator will not break stone), preventing accidental damage to your world._ ### Tiers & Armor Set Bonuses The mod introduces full toolsets, weapons, and armor for three materials: Amethyst, Emerald, and Obsidian. Equipping a full set of armor grants unique, persistent abilities: - **Amethyst Armor**: Acts as a dynamic light source. Wearing the full set emits a continuous light level of 15 around the player (True Lantern Behavior). - **Emerald Armor**: Grants a Villager Discount. Wearing the full set provides better trading prices with villagers, functioning similarly to the Hero of the Village effect. - **Obsidian Armor**: Grants permanent Fire Resistance. Wearing the full set protects you from all fire and lava damage. ### Custom Shields A variety of new shields are included, such as Wooden, Iron, Diamond, Emerald, Obsidian, and specialized round variants. - Each shield features its own distinct blocking and equip sound effects, providing a more immersive combat experience. - All shields are neatly organized in a dedicated Creative Mode tab for easy access. ## Compatibility This mod is optimized and thoroughly tested for Minecraft **26.0** to **26.3**. It utilizes a dynamic cross-version rendering system to ensure the block outlines and features work perfectly on both versions using a single `.jar` file. ## Requirements - **Fabric Loader** (>=0.19.2) - **Fabric API** (>= 0.145.1+26.1)
