Damage Armor

Players keep everything, but the armor they're wearing takes some durability damage when they die.

Rule

default_behavior: KEEP

rules:
  damage_armor:
    name: "Damage worn armor"
    enabled: true
    effects:
      damage:
        mode: PERCENTAGE
        min: 10.0
        max: 20.0               # <-- Lose 10% to 20% of max durability
        dont_break: true        # <-- Never break the armor completely
        use_enchantments: true  # <-- Unbreaking reduces the damage
        filters:
          slots:
            - "ARMOR"           # <-- Only the armor slots

How it works

The ARMOR slot list only covers the four armor slots, so only armor the player is wearing gets damaged. Spare armor in their inventory is left alone.

With dont_break: true armor is left on the edge of breaking instead of being destroyed, so players won't lose their gear outright from a death.

Variations

Damage all armor, including spare pieces in the inventory, by filtering on items instead of slots:

        filters:
          items:
            - "G:ARMOR"

Damage everything that can be damaged, like tools and weapons too:

        filters:
          items:
            - "G:EQUIPMENT"
