I just merged my armor (which implements ISpecialArmor) from 4 classes to 1, and I'm having 3 issues with it now.

 

 

First, I can't figure out what I need to change to alter the armor points it gives you; when it was 4 classes, it didn't give you any, and now it gives you 3 full icons for some reason, but nothing I change affects the points.

 

 

Second, I set it up to spawn particles when the wearer is hit at night, and merging it into 1 class broke this.  No clue why.

 

 

Third, I added step-up capabilities to the armor when the full set is worn, but even though player.stepHeight is being set correctly every time in every situation, I get no step-up capability.

 

 

PS, related to #2, the only vanilla particles that will show up for me when I try to spawn particles myself are the explosion varieties, why is this?
