Changes

 * Entities
 * Most entities (exceptions being items and xp orbs) can now be pushed by other entities.
 * Fishing rods now properly hook to these entities.


 * Armor
 * Armor points are now worth slightly less.
 * Max (20) armor points damage reduction reduced form 80% to 66%.
 * Each armor point now only reduces damage by a base value of 3.3% (down from 4%).
 * Calculation of damage reduction from armor changed so that it absorbs less damage from stronger attacks and vice versa.
 * Armor now has a damage threshold.
 * For each heart that an attack is over this threshold, the armor will absorb half a heart less of the attack (compared to its base protection value).
 * For each heart that an attack is under the threshold, the armor will absorb half a heart more of the attack.


 * Enchanting
 * Sharpness and Protection enchantments have been nerfed.
 * Each sharpness level now adds 1 damage to the base damge per level, down from 1.5 damage.
 * Protection levels are now linear instead of quadratic.
