About this Mod

Overloaded Armor Bar

The vanilla armor bar doesn't accurately show "better than diamond" level armor, as it simply maxes out when its full.

This mod allows armor values over 20 to be displayed as different colored (configurable) icons depending on how many times you fill the bar.

Armor bar modified to show 30 armor with different icon colors

However, without AttributeFix, the armor display will cap out at 30 Armor, or 1.5x diamond armor due to the vanilla armor attribute cap.

Other optional features

Show the armor bar when the player is not wearing any armor
Hide empty armor icons

Notes

The bar may need to be adjusted
This mod is compatible with mods that add additional health bars or recolors them. Recommended for usage with Colorful Health Bar, a lightweight mod that recolors the health bars instead of stacking them.
