v1.4.0

v1.4.0

Now on Minecraft 26.1.2!

Random Armor

• Loot Cases can now drop armor
• Five new wearer traits: Thorny, Bulwark, Adrenaline, Featherweight, and Magnetized.
• Armor levels up by taking damage, supports smithing-table traits, anvil repair, and enchanting just like tools.
• Armor drops from ~15% of case opens by default (configurable).

Salvaging & Essence

• Smelt any Random Loot gear into Random Essence.
• Craft 9 Essence back into a Loot Case.
• Use Essence in a crafting grid to re-roll a gear piece's texture

Quality of life

• Roll reveal: opening a case now spins the gear through its possible looks with a rune-script name before settling.
• Cases open into the hand that held them.
• Dispensers can open Loot Cases properly.
• New advancement tab with Random Loot specific goals.
• Admin commands: /randomloot give, /randomloot trait add|remove, /randomloot xp.
• Anvil repair materials and enchantment compatibility are now datapack-editable item tags.
• Tooltips and trait text are now localizable.

Balance changes

• Feasting's "hungry" penalty is removed (it was accidentally healing targets).
• Lighting campfires/candles with Fire Touch costs 2 durability (was 1).

Fixes

• Smithing only accepts traits that work on that gear type (no more Veiny swords)
• Several on-hit traits (Critical, Bezerk, Early Bird, Fierce, Soulbound, Feasting) had their bonus damage mostly swallowed by invulnerability frames.
• Hailey's Wrath actually fires now (it never triggered in 1.3.0).
• Loot Cases were missing from dungeon/chest loot entirely (loot modifiers failed to load).
• Trait smithing recipes failed to load, leaving gear unplaceable in the smithing table.
• Smithing or retexturing gear no longer wipes its enchantments and repair cost.
• Gaining a lot of XP at once now levels up correctly past multiple thresholds.
• Retexturing no longer secretly repairs the item.
• Ore/Treasure Finder no longer corrupts the trait's displayed name.
• Nemesis displayed one level lower than it actually was.
• Vein-mining performance improved and durability is only spent on blocks actually broken.
