📋 About This Mod
# Auto-Shield Reborn Hold a shield in **either hand** and you automatically block any hit a raised shield would normally block - no need to raise it. All blocking is server-authoritative, so it works on dedicated servers even for players who do not have the mod installed. ## Why Auto-Shield Reborn - **Block without raising.** Melee, projectiles, and most direct damage from your front 180-degree arc (horizontal) are blocked automatically while a shield is in your main or off hand; hits from behind still land, and shield-bypassing damage (fire, fall, drowning, magic, starvation) passes through - exactly like a manually-raised shield. - **Server-authoritative + fair.** The per-hit shield durability cost is server-configurable (0-10, default 1; 0 = the shield never wears). Operators set it; everyone else sees it read-only. - **Lightweight.** Adds no blocks, items, or commands. Install it on a server for the behaviour; install it on clients too for the in-game config screen. ## Usage Hold a shield. Each automatic block plays the shield sound, swings your arm, and chips the shield by the configured cost. Open the config screen from **ModMenu** (Fabric) or the **Config** button on the mod-list entry (Forge / NeoForge); operators edit the durability cost and the server clamps, persists, and syncs it to everyone. Ships as a **Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge** mod (client + server). - Source code: https://github.com/Kishku7/autoshield-reborn/tree/minecraft-1.20-26.3 - Report issues / Support: https://github.com/Kishku7/mod_support/issues By Kishku7.
