Delta Force Armor System
by Mirage_Lab
Delta Force Armor System adds a tiered repair kit system for armor on Minecraft 1.21.11, with five kit tiers that repair helmets and chestplates.
What it does
Five repair kit tiers, from Copper to Netherite, restore durability to leather, copper, chainmail, iron and other armor. Each tier is tuned differently: the Copper kit handles the entry level, the Iron kit covers the middle range, and the Diamond kit uses less durability per repair, while the Netherite kit works across all armor tiers. Repair anvils accept iron ingots as an alternative way to fix armor.
The mod changes what happens when armor runs out of durability. Armor that reaches zero stays in the inventory and keeps appearing on the character, but it provides no protection and its enchantments stop working until it is repaired. Durability transfer and depletion rules are part of the repair kit system. Delta Force Armor System requires Cloth Config API and Fabric API, and runs on client and server. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.21.11.
