Upgrading Iron Armor to Diamond

How to Upgrade Iron Armor

This mod allows you to convert iron armor pieces into diamond armor using a smithing table. To upgrade an iron armor piece, place it on the smithing table along with a diamond, and the smithing table will combine them into a diamond armor piece of the same type.

For example, iron chestplate + diamond = diamond chestplate. This works for all iron armor pieces: helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots. Each upgrade requires one diamond per armor piece.

This provides an alternative path to obtaining diamond armor without needing to find diamonds in the world first, as long as you have iron armor and at least one diamond available.
