About ShieldOverflowFix
From ThunderstoreFixes Staff of Protection overflow so excess damage spills through the shield instead of being fully blocked.
Shield Overflow Fix
Fixes an issue with Staff of Protection where the shield can block an entire hit even if it only has 1 health remaining.
Example:
Shield HP: 1 Incoming hit: 100
Vanilla behavior:
- Entire hit is blocked
- Shield breaks
- Player takes 0 damage
With overflow enabled:
- Shield absorbs 1
- Remaining 99 damage goes through
Optional Features
- Recasting Staff of Protection restores shield health instead of only refreshing the timer
- Floating numbers showing shield damage
- Shield color changes based on remaining health
