Create SteelSkin
by Navimint
Create SteelSkin adds power armor pieces to NeoForge 1.21.1, with copper and netherite variants and power cores that fit into Curios slots.
What it does
The mod brings power armor to the Create setting, inspired by the Protection Pixel mod and built around sturdy, lightweight materials. Each armor piece is meant for a specific use. Wearing the helmet improves sight, and the diving armors raise fluid handling, reach and oxygen capacity, which lets a player stay underwater or in lava longer at the cost of land speed. Copper and netherite power armors are introduced, and the author plans more armors in future updates.
Crafting the armor requires the Create Think Remove Thought recipes, so the Create addon named in the requirements has to be installed alongside it. Power cores equip into Curios slots and can power anything, and the armor effects apply as soon as a piece is worn. The default key bindings include a drop-down armor action on the left mouse button over a block. Create SteelSkin runs on client and server and is published only for NeoForge 1.21.1, under All rights reserved.
