About this Mod
Sweety's Horse Armor Tweaks is a small mod, granting a slight buff to minecraft Horse Armors

Every vanilla horse armor will now grant a small speed and jump height boost to your horses, making using them and giving them armors slightly more interesting.

- Gold Horse Armor : +15% Speed & +5% Jump Height
- Diamond Horse Armor : +20% Speed & +20% Jump Height
The mod is compatible by default with various mods adding horse armors, including :
- Sully's Mod
- Caverns and Chasms
- Galosphere
- Copper Age Backport
- Netherite Horse Armor CJ
- Simple Netherite Horse Armor
- More Horse Armors
Values for modded materials :
- Netherite Armors : +25% Speed, +20% Jump Height and +1 Step Height
- Enderite Armors : +20% Speed, +25% Jump Height and + 1 Knockback Resistance
- Other Armors are balanced relative to the vanilla ones, with eventual specific buffs related to their material
How to customise the mod, or add compatibilities via datapack/kubejs (1.20+ Only):
Customisation
Values are loaded on startup from src\main\resources\data\MOD_ID\horse_armor_attribute\ITEM NAME. To add new items, simply add a json file in the correct folder following this pattern.
Example - This file will define the values used for the "sullysmod:jade_horse_armor" item
src\main\resources\data\sullysmod\horse_armor_attribute\jade_horse_armor.json
Files list various attributes that can be customised. A value of 0 will be ignored, and values can go negative to nerf some armors (in case, for example, you'd want instead Horse Armors to give speed debuffs)
Example - This file provide +25% Speed, +20% Jump and +1 KB Resistance. Unused values are ignored.
