Update Summary:

This minor update completes the overhaul of the damage system started in 1.6.0. All armor sets provide more damage reduction out the gate, while the Protection and Sharpness enchants have been removed (with minor exceptions). This makes the effect of defensive stats more predictable, and the removal of "must-have" enchantments removes a barrier to both accessing high-end gear and exploring varied equipment builds. This update also improves upon the multiplayer experience in several ways. Cooperative exploration and dungeoneering is improved via the addition of the /friend command, which allows players to designate other players that will be immune to their damage, and by making all naturally-generated chests with loot contain separate and individualized loot for each player. Additionally, players can now directly trade with each other by right clicking each other with an empty hand!

One of the updated mods has received a complete rewrite. Be sure to back up your worlds before updating just in case.

Known issues:

• Entering the mods/config menus can cause the game to stop rendering entities on the client. To fix, quit to desktop and re-open.
• While on a server, JER only displays vanilla mob and dungeon drops.
• Text in guidebooks may be illegible at certain resolutions. Resizing the UI scale within a patchouli book can fix text rendering.
• Lanterns in a hip slot will render in first person view several chunks ahead of the player with certain shaders while that curio slot's display is toggled on.
• Items sent to mailboxes made of modded wood types can only be retrieved by breaking the receiving mailbox.
• A handful of music discs will not lock out a hopper for their full duration, or alternately will not unlock a pulling hopper.
