Features

1. Limb States and Disabilities

Arm Penalties

  • One Arm Missing: Disables swinging, attacking, and block mining with that side.
  • Both Arms Missing: Disables holding items in either hand and blocks hotbar item selection swaps.

Leg Penalties

  • One Leg Missing: Reduces horizontal movement speed to zero.
  • Both Legs Missing: Forces the player into a continuous crawling (prone) state and completely disables jumping.

2. Lethal Damage Interception

When taking fatal damage, the mod can intercept player death under configurable conditions:

  • The player survives with 1 HP and enters an interception cooldown (default: 20 minutes).
  • One or more biological limbs are severed depending on the damage source and damage overflow:
    • Fall damage targets legs.
    • Explosions calculate multi-limb severance probabilities based on overkill damage tiers.
  • Drowning and void damage are excluded and remain unconditionally fatal.

3. Passive Modifiers and Enchantment Stacking

  • Fall Damage Mitigation: Every equipped leg prosthesis grants a passive 25% fall damage reduction (up to 50% when wearing both legs).
  • Fire Damage Mitigation: Every equipped Netherite prosthesis grants a passive 10% fire/lava damage reduction (up to 40% for a full four-piece set).
  • Boot Enchantment Compatibility: Leg prosthetics can receive standard boot enchantments (Feather Falling, Soul Speed, Frost Walker, etc.).
  • Bilateral Enchantment Stacking: Equipping matching enchantments on both corresponding limbs (left and right) increases the effective level by one tier (for example, Soul Speed I on both legs functions as Soul Speed II).

4. In-Game Clothing Editor

An integrated editor screen is accessible via a tab button in the player inventory:

  • Allows painting custom clothing masks directly over equipped prosthetics.

5. Commands and Configuration

Administrative Command

Requires permission level 2 (operator):

/cripple <left_arm|right_arm|left_leg|right_leg|arms|legs> <true|false>
