Extra Armor Info Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Where do the armor info icons appear on my screen?
By default, the toughness and knockback resistance icons appear near your armor bar in the HUD. You can reposition them using the in-game config options—open the mod settings and adjust the X and Y coordinates to place them wherever you prefer.
How do I turn off the toughness icon but keep knockback resistance showing?
Open the mod's in-game config menu and look for the individual toggle options for each icon type. You can disable toughness while leaving knockback resistance enabled, or vice versa.
What does the armor toughness icon actually tell me?
The toughness icon displays how much armor toughness your equipped set provides, which reduces damage from strong hits. Higher toughness means you take less damage from sources like critical hits or attacks from powerful mobs.
Why should I monitor knockback resistance while fighting?
Knockback resistance determines how much you get pushed back when hit. Monitoring it helps you understand which armor pieces or enchantments are protecting you from being knocked around, which is especially useful in PvP or when fighting near cliffs.
Can I move the icons to the opposite side of my screen?
Yes, the mod provides full positional control through the config. You can set custom X and Y coordinates to place the icons anywhere on your HUD, including the opposite side or corners of your screen.
Do these icons show up in the inventory screen?
No, the armor info icons only appear in your main HUD overlay while playing. They don't clutter your inventory interface.
Will this mod work with other HUD mods?
The mod is generally compatible with other HUD mods, but positioning conflicts can occur if multiple mods try to use the same screen space. Adjust the icon positions in the config if they overlap with other mod elements.
How do I know if my armor has toughness?
Equip the armor and check the toughness icon in your HUD—if it shows a value above zero, your armor has toughness. Different armor materials and enchantments provide different amounts.
Can I hide the icons temporarily without disabling them?
The mod doesn't have a built-in toggle for temporary hiding, but you can disable individual icons in the config and re-enable them when needed.
Do the icons update in real-time when I change armor?
Yes, the icons update instantly whenever you equip or unequip armor pieces, so you'll always see accurate information about your current protection.
