Shield Mod Notes

Adds a Round Shield item that blocks like the vanilla shield with the same durability and single-item stack size.
Crafting: shaped recipe with an iron ingot in the center and oak planks in the four cardinal slots around it.
The shield appears in the combat creative tab and is included in the shields item tag so it interacts with axe-disabling and other shield behaviors.
Recipe unlocks once you obtain oak planks and an iron ingot, granting the round shield recipe in the book.

Limitations & Tips

The mod targets the server environment; players will need the mod on their client to see and use the item without registry mismatches.
Visuals reuse the vanilla shield model/texture; add a custom round model or textures if you want a distinct look.
