Full diamond armor has 60 heal...

So there's 60% chance you'll completely block any kind of damage while wearing full diamond armor.

Further investigation on 5.0.0 and 5.0.1 showed me that damage only starts to show up at a minimum height of 200-250 (diamond).
However I thought this would just decrease the damage dealt or increase the maximum health or something like this.
As it seems that it just gives you a chance to maybe block the dealt damage I would like to reccomend a setting:

• A toggle to either have the armor block damage with a predefined chance (as in the current system) or a decrease in the damage dealt by the amount of heal (60% for diamond for example) - if this is within the realm of possibility

Armor "level" decreases damage intake... Only if the player is attacked though... Falling, drowning and DPS blocks dosen't count...

But heal does work with any kind of damage...

davidthecreator wrote:MineTest handles attack ("punch") and non-attack damage a bit differently...

Basically, damage done by other players and in most cases, damage done by entities is dealt by "punching" the player and when player gets damage from a "punch", player's "fleshy" armor group changes the taken damage value to the same percentage as the value of your "fleshy" armor group, which is 100 by default, so you take 100% of the damage you get from a punch. But wearing armor reduces that percentage, for example, full diamond set has 85 protection levels, so it reduces your fleshy armor group by 85 points to 15 points, so with the armor, you only take 15% of that punch damage...

But falling, drowning and being damaged by blocks does not count as being punched, thus your "fleshy" armor value has no effect on it, thus for the armor to protect from those, damage reduction should be handled in a similar way as "heal"... But of course, for that to happen, the maker of this mod would have to apply some changes to the code...

And the maker of this mod seems to have been gone for a while... So IDK if this will happen...

Where are the textures for the actual armor stand entities held? The texture folder in the 3d_armor_stand mod only includes textures for the armor slots.

They are in the "models" folder: https://github.com/minetest-mods/3d_arm ... and/models

Tried track this down myself but no luck, not sure if the armor mod has changed or its just me...probably me

Just trying to access the players equiped inventory armor - I tried the below listed froma reply of Stu's from 2018, at the moment I'm just sending the output to the chat window. however all I get with the below is 6x nothing (I did equip some armour :)):

Code: Select all

local inv = player:get_inventory()
	for i = 1, 6 do
		local stack = inv:get_stack("armor", i)
		minetest.chat_send_all("item "..tostring(stack:get_name()))
	end

As a test of my code I thought i'd try getting the names of the 1st 6 item names from "main" which using the below code works as expected and I get output.

Code: Select all

local inv = player:get_inventory()
	for i = 1, 6 do
		local stack = inv:get_stack("main", i)
		minetest.chat_send_all("item "..tostring(stack:get_name()))
	end

Any help as to whats wrong? Checking over the 3d_armor code it all looks correct and like the armor inv is still called "armor" so im stumped - help much appreciated.

Edit: I found a handy get list command and ran it against inv:get_lists() and no sign of armor in there....either I have some odd conflict or armor has moved or stored somewhere odd in singleplayer?

Code: Select all
