Armor Statistics Modification and You

First off, let's define what this generator is, and does. The primary purpose of this generator is for modifying armor stats in a vanilla-like manner, based on the equipment slot the item goes in.

This will produce a minecraft:attribute_modifiers component, as well as minecraft:max_damage. This generator has the id defaulted:armor_stats.

The following is an introduction to how to use it:

First off, mark whether it should maintain the previous attribute modifiers on top of its new ones.

This is defined with a boolean with the name persist_previous.

In addition, there are five fields which this generator will take:

1. max_damage: The durability of the item, taking the form of an armor variable of type integer.
2. armor: The armor of the item, taking the form of an armor variable of type integer.
3. armor_toughness: The armor toughness of the item, taking the form of an armor variable of type double.
4. knockback_resistance: The knockback resistance of the item, taking the form of an armor variable of type double.
5. additional_modifiers: A list of armor attribute entries, which will be used to form additional attribute modifiers for the item. These are of the format:
   • type: The attribute to modify, can be any vanilla or modded attribute.
   • base_id: The base identifier for this modifier, will be automatically suffixed with .helmet, .chestplate, .leggings, .boots, .body, or .any, depending on the piece.
   • amount: The value of the attribute, taking the form of an armor variable of type double.
   • operation: The operation for the attribute modifier.

Armor Variable Codecs

The specific expected inputs for each field depends on where specifically it is used. Armor Variable values represent each possible armor slot and will choose a value based on what the armor they are being parsed for goes into.

If in object form, is decoded as the following:

1. helmet: The value for all armors which go in the head slot.
2. chestplate: The value for all armors which go in the chest slot.
3. leggings: The value for all armors which go in the leggings slot.
4. boots: The value for all armors which go in the feet slot.
5. body: The value for all armors which go in the body slot (typically used for non-humanoid mobs).
6. any: The fallback value for the armor, can provide for any non-specified ones. All Armor Variables can be written as a singular form of their expected value, becoming only the fallback.
