R&A: Modular Armor is a standalone tactical armor addon built around customizable helmets, plate carriers, uniforms, belts, backpacks, armor plates, and wearable attachments.

The download contains two Behavior Pack choices:

• Free Behavior Pack – Includes the complete modular armor and attachment system.
• Admin/Patreon Behavior Pack – Includes the same armor content and adds the exclusive R&A Armor Admin Control Tool.

Only activate one Behavior Pack version at a time. Both editions use the same R&A Resource Pack.

R&A uses attachables and does not contain:

• player.json
• player.entity.json
• A replacement player render controller

This makes it more compatible with other addons than armor packs that completely replace the player entity.

The addon is actively developed and may still contain bugs or balancing problems. Report issues through the Discord server with your Minecraft version, pack version, other active addons, screenshots, videos, and Content Log errors.

---

• ANA M1 Plate Carrier
• RBAV-AF Plate Carrier
• SP PC V2 Plate Carrier
• Death Kevlar Vest
• Recon Pantsir Carrier

Different carriers have different base protection, weight, condition, and visual layouts.

---

Uniform options include:

• KZ SSO Uniform
• OCP Uniform and Leggings

Belt options include:

• Tactical Belt T2

Backpack options include:

• Scorpion OCP Backpack

---

Helmet Attachments

Helmet attachments include equipment such as:

• Maska Heavy Face Mask
• Altyn Face Shield
• Bone Face Cover
• Cloth Face Cover
• Black Face Cover
• Ballistic Face Visor
• Metal Face Mask
• FAST Mask T2
• Gas Mask T2
• Full Gas Mask
• Helmet Head Gear
• Black Helmet Head Gear
• Tactical Headphones
• Helmet Microphone
• Helmet Flashlight
• Helmet Flashlight T2

Attachments are divided into categories such as:

• Face Protection
• Face Cover
• Headgear
• Audio
• Lighting

Only one option from the same attachment category can normally be installed at a time.

---

Plate System

Compatible carriers can use separate armor plates for different areas.

Supported plate locations include:

• Front Plate
• Back Plate
• Side Plates

Front, back, and side plates are stored independently. Installing one plate does not automatically equip the other positions.

Available plate classes include:

• Level IIIA
• Level III
• Level III+
• Level IV

Higher plate classes generally provide:

• Greater damage reduction
• Greater penetration resistance
• More weight
• Stronger torso protection

These values are intended for addon gameplay and balancing. They are not real-world protective-equipment guidance.

---

Attachment Interface

To open the R&A attachment interface:

• Hold a supported armor item
• Left-click
• Interact with the temporary attachment helper
• Place compatible equipment into the labeled slots
• Close the interface to save the configuration

Each attachment category uses a fixed slot.

This prevents two attachments from the same category from being installed at the same time.

The interface only accepts attachments compatible with the held equipment.

---

Repair Kit

R&A uses a custom Armor Repair Kit.

To repair equipment:

• Open the attachment interface for the damaged item
• Place the Armor Repair Kit in the bottom-right repair slot
• Allow the menu to apply the repair
• Close the interface to save the item

The item lore also explains where the Repair Kit should be placed.

Repairing equipment:

• Restores custom armor condition
• Preserves installed attachments
• Does not erase armor-plate selections
• Does not reset the item’s visual configuration

---

Custom Condition and Attachment Data

R&A separates actual armor condition from visual attachment state.

Attachment Data

The addon uses the item’s vanilla durability-damage channel to encode the installed visual attachments.

Actual Armor Condition

Real armor condition is stored separately through:

• Item dynamic properties
• Compact item data
• Item lore

Because the two systems are separate:

• Installing an attachment does not repair armor
• Removing an attachment does not damage armor
• Repairing armor does not remove attachments
• Changing plates does not reset condition

---

Foldable Face Protection

The Altyn Face Shield and FAST Mask T2 can be raised or lowered.

To change their position:

• Wear a compatible helmet
• Install the supported foldable face protection
• Double-crouch quickly

When lowered:

• The protective model covers the face
• Its protection values are active

When raised:

• The model remains visible above the face
• Face protection is inactive
• The raised position is primarily visual

An action-bar message confirms the current position.

---

Armor Protection

R&A can calculate protection using body zones such as:

• Head
• Face
• Upper torso
• Lower torso
• Back
• Side torso
• Arms
• Legs

Final protection can depend on:

• Base equipment
• Installed attachments
• Installed plate type
• Hit location
• Armor condition
• Weapon penetration
• Blunt damage
• Equipment weight
• Server balancing settings

A carrier without plates may still provide limited soft protection, but its strongest ballistic defense comes from installed armor plates.

---

Medical Integration

When used with a compatible SWMC Medical pack:

• Armor reduces damage before it reaches Medical HP
• Bleeding protection can reduce wound chance
• Fracture protection can reduce broken-leg chance
• Blunt damage can still contribute to pain
• The hit body zone is preserved
• Armor penetration affects the final result

When Medical is unavailable, R&A can use its standalone damage handling where supported.
