Apple Armor
by Xipit
Apple Armor, a Fabric mod by Xipit, adds a full armor set crafted from apples that heals the wearer when damaged and grants golden apple effects.
What it does
Equipping the complete Apple Armor set activates its strongest effect: each hit that damages the wearer restores hunger and applies the same status effects a golden apple gives. Protection enchantments on the armor increase that effect, and wearing the full set boosts it further. Pieces can break during use, and a broken piece drops apples, so the set has to be replaced over time.
Installation needs only Fabric, and the mod is listed for 1.18.2 – 1.19.4 with builds covering 1.18.2, 1.19, 1.19.1, 1.19.2, 1.19.3 and 1.19.4. Configuration is reached from the options screen, through the round button in the top left corner, when ModMenu is installed. Apple Armor runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
