A simple datapack that allows players to plate their elytra with a metal chestplate, enhancing the armor and armor thoughness of the elytra. You get half the armor and armor thoughness value of the chestplate you use.


Crafting
To craft a plated elytra, drop a slime ball, a metal chestplate and an elytra on top of an anvil. As of now, enchantments are not being transferred. This feature in being worked on right now though.


Download
The resourcepack is required to display the item names and texture icons correctly!!!

The download link will always provide the newest version available (currently for 1.16+). If you want to download older versions, please visit the GitHub page and download the datapack from there.

Works with 1.16.x (tested). I don't see any particular reason why this shouldn't work with the 20w46a snapshot as well. Just use the same zip file. If you get a warning message that the datapack version is older, just ignore it. It probably works with older versions as well, though I haven't tested it myself.
