Power Armor
by Gamingbarn
Power Armor adds a Fallout-inspired armor system in which the suit is built as a frame placed on the ground, then powered and entered by right-clicking it.
What it does
Power Armor is a special armor type that cannot be worn like traditional armor. A player first crafts a Power Armor Frame and places it on the ground, then supplies it with redstone blocks, which are stored until the next use. Right-clicking the frame with the suit pieces assembles the armor on the player. Crafting the individual pieces matters for the full stat boost, since several pieces can be crafted and some are more demanding to build than others, and each piece adds further boost to the stats. Armor trims from vanilla and modded armor can be added for extra flair. To leave the suit, the player looks straight down and sneaks.
The mod is inspired mostly by Fallout 4 and Fallout 76. Recipes and items are listed in the crafting table's recipe book, and items can also be given with the give command. The server must run the mod, while players may leave it out. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt as a data pack, and its license is Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0, so it is not open source.
