Soul Debt v2.1.0

🎈 New Features

Added configurable Soul Apple drops from vanilla mobs.

Soul Apples can now be obtained from:

*   Wandering Traders;
*   player-killed mob drops.

New Mob Drop Tier System

• Common: 1% chance, drops 1 Soul Apple.
• Medium: 5% chance, drops 1 Soul Apple.
• Strong: 10% chance, drops 2 Soul Apples.
• Elite: 20% chance, drops 2 Soul Apples.
• Boss / Extreme Threat: 100% chance, drops 5 Soul Apples.

New Configuration Section

Added the new [life_apple_mob_drops] config section, allowing players and pack makers to customize:

• which mobs are included in each tier;
• drop chance per tier;
• Soul Apple amount per tier;
• whether mob drops are enabled.

🔗 Changes and Improvements

• The life HUD is now hidden correctly while the player is in Creative or Spectator mode.
• Soul Apples now use one shared creation/recognition system, meaning trader Soul Apples and mob-drop Soul Apples are treated as the same special Soul Debt item.
• Soul Apple mob drops now require a player kill.
• Soul Apple mob drops are not affected by Looting.

Simplified TOML Config

The generated TOML config has been simplified:

• removed the hud section;
• removed the effects section;
• HUD and effects remain active using internal default values.

✅ Protected Items

Expanded the default protected item list with more high-value vanilla items, including:

• Mace;
• Heavy Core;
• Nether Star;
• Recovery Compass;
• Echo Shard;
• Heart of the Sea;
• Dragon Head;
• End Crystal;
• Trial Key and Ominous Trial Key;
• all Shulker Boxes.

Added compatibility-oriented protection for backpack items from:

• Travelers Backpack;
• Sophisticated Backpacks.

The internal critical protection list is now merged with the TOML protected item list, so older configs also benefit from newly protected critical items automatically.

📚 Documentation and Localization

• Updated the README to better explain Soul Debt's current gameplay identity.
• Updated the documentation with the new Soul Apple mob drop system and simplified config.
• Updated en_us and pt_br translations for the new configuration options.

⚠️ Compatibility Notes

• Existing configs continue to work.
• Old hud and effects sections are no longer used by the mod if they still exist in an older TOML file.
• Missing modded item IDs in the protected list are harmless when those mods are not installed.
