List of Armor
Mk. VI MJOLNIR Armor
Grants the wearer immunity to fire & fall damage, strength, speed, water breathing, and jump boost. At some point it will also have toggleable nightvision and shields.
ODST Armor
Cheaper than MJOLNIR armor; Only grants water breathing, and immunity to fire & fall damage.
Marine Armor
Significantly cheaper than both of the aforementioned armors; Does not grant any potion effects of immunities.
All armor grants the wearer reticles and the ability to use scopes
Structures
List of Structures
Forerunner Beam Emitter:
Immediately upon spawning into the world, you are likely to be greeted by one of these. These may provide some shelter from the extremely hostile outside world, or serve as a durable starter base. These are very common structures, and are found everywhere.
ODST Drop Pod
Somewhat common, very small structures. Unused for now, kimd of like a desert well.
Falcon:
A lot less common than the drop pod, the falcon contains wooden crates, which can be broken with a stone-tier or higher axe. These crated drop a random assortment of UNSC weapons and ammunition.
- VARIANT: Wrecked Falcon
- More common than the intact falcon, wrecked falcons contain less loot.
Pelican:
The rarest (?) UNSC structure, the pelican comtains a lot more crates than the falcon. They also contain a few computers, unused blocks that will drip computer chips in kater updates.
- VARIANT: Wrecked Pelican
-Like the wrecked falcon, the wrecked pelican contains less loot, but is more common.
UNSC structures are somtimes inhabited by friendly soldiers.
Spirit Dropship
Much better looking than the phantom dropship (not included in the mod), the spirit dropship is currently the only covenant structure in the mod. They contain covenant crates, which drop covenant and brute weapons and ammunition. Be careful, though: They also house multiple spawners, which will throw elites and grunts at you. Maybe they could be used for a farm?
Note: Spawners are as of now non-functional
Additional Notes & Suggestions
List of Notes
- This mod works best if the vanilla crosshair is made invisible. There are several resource packs that do this, such as VanillaTweaks (note that VanillaTweaks and other resource packs are unaffiliated with this project)- Optifine or any other mod with a zoom key is reccomended. For best effect, bind that mod's zoom key to Halocraft's scope key.
For any problems you encounter or suggestions you have, please visit the GitHub page for the project, under the "links" section of the mod page.
