## \ud83d\udcd6 About
\nWith this datapack, any sword can be used as a shield, but will only block half the damage.<\/p>\n

### Features:
\n– When a player takes a sword into his hand, the `blocks_attacks` and `use_cooldown` components are added to it.
\n – The `use_cooldown` component is needed for the general delay group for all swords separately from shields;
\n– The sword blocks half of the damage;
\n– After disabling blocking with an axe, the player cannot use the sword as a shield or as a weapon at all;
\n– If the player has a shield in either hand, blocking with sword is disabled.<\/p>\n
