Comprehensive Suggestions List (2021-10-08)

[TheSpiderDungeon]

As with all suggestions, exact function and numbers are simply for reference and not required for the suggestion to be added, if even added at all. This list is stuffed full of ideas, most of which I wouldn't ever expect to be added, I'll try to add additional suggestions to the list to make sure it all stays in one spot.

Mechanics

• Visually hide offhand shields when not blocking or holding weapon
• Prevent tools/weapons from interacting with grass/flowers/bushes/etc. except for hoes
• Hoes deal increased damage, slightly longer reach, and have innate Sweeping Edge IV, even while moving
• Knock back arrows/thrown potions similar to fireballs (good luck hitting something that small though)
• Prevent damage to mounted entity (boat/horse/minecart/etc.)
• Gold armor has protection against magic damage (toErlpNid)
• Tridents and pickaxes ignore armor (toErlpNid)
• All armor except leather and chainmail armor decrease movement speed
• Invisibility potion effect hides armor, but spawns some extra particles
• Invisibility is removed when attacking, being attacked, or bumping into a mob
• Riptide functions in air at half power (full power in water or rain)
• Infinity enchantment works without arrows
• Infinity can exist with Mending
• Health bars for mobs
• Damage numbers on hit
• Timer overlay on potion effect icons
• Trinket mod: spyglass can be equipped in the head slot to allow zooming-in with a hotkey
