Uncapped Armor
Allows for armor values above 20 to be factored into protection
About this Mod
This is a very simple mod that replaces values in Minecraft's default DamageUtil class to allow for protection values over 20 to be calculated.
The way it works is by calculating the damage based on however much armor the player has PLUS a predefined 'padding' (set in config). The higher the armor value, the higher the protection, however you wil experience diminishing returns at higher values.
