About this Mod
- 📖 Description
DamageCap is a lightweight and fully configurable mod that allows you to limit the maximum damage specific mobs can receive in Minecraft.
Perfect for balancing combat, making enemies more durable, or preventing certain mobs from being one-shotted.
-⚙️ Features
🔧 Fully customizable configuration
🧟 Supports any mob (vanilla and modded)
📊 Independent damage cap per entity
🚫 No default limits (you choose what to modify)

The mod automatically generates a config file at:
.minecraft/config/damagecap-common.toml
Example:
mob_damage_caps = [
"minecraft:zombie=10.0",
"minecraft:creeper=15.0"
]
Each entry defines the maximum damage that mob can take per hit
