Damage Dummys
by Alsomebob9
Damage Dummys adds placeable training dummies that record the damage dealt to them, so players can test weapons and enchantments.
What it does
A placed dummy shows the damage each hit deals as it lands, and it heals itself after a hit so testing can continue. Armor placed on the dummy is counted, which lets players see how a gear set affects incoming damage. Balancing custom weapons, comparing enchantments or checking a loadout can be done without harming real mobs. The mod runs on NeoForge for Minecraft 1.21.8, and both the server and every player need it. The files are released under All rights reserved, so the license is not open source.
Key features
Placeable training dummies
Dummies can be set down anywhere in the world and stay in place for repeated testing.
Damage display
The damage dealt by each hit is shown above the dummy in real time.
Automatic healing
A dummy restores its health after a hit, so tests can be repeated without resetting it.
Armor support
Armor worn by the dummy is taken into account, showing how protection changes the damage taken.
