There should be an option to automatically equip armor from a kit. It could there could be a separate helmet, chestplate, pants, and boots node to put in an item.

+1

Very good idea +1

How do you suggest we implement this?

I think
[chestplate] diamondchestplate 1 (etc)

When inventory is full drop it.

It could look something like this: http://i.imgur.com/S1aVGzG.png

Or items:

• x
• y
• z

armour:

• Helmet ID
• Chestplate ID
• Leggings ID
• Shoes ID

I think just attempt to equip any piece of armor if there is currently nothing in that specific armor slot.

Sounds good if it auto equips from list

Attenpting to equip any armor in the inventory could work but then you're sacrificing 4 inventory slots which will always be empty.

auto-equip-armour: true/false.
Don't see it being an issue @xMrPoi

Adding on to the item deserialization specifications, maybe we could have an auto-equip property that automatically equips that item.

@xMrPoi's example is probably the best one

I would rather just attempt to equip pieces of armor if the player's armor slots are empty.

Was this ever implemented?

No. Feel free to write the code and make a pull request if you would like to add it.

has anyone made a plugin that does this already? i have one but it only works when you run the command in chat

Any update ?

We need this
