我的世界背包盘点：盔甲架

Greave for your old armor sets


旧盔甲的“归宿”

When you upgrade your armor in Minecraft, you’ve got several choices for what to do with the dirty, sweaty old set that you’re removing. You could throw it in the sea and never speak of it again. You could toss it in a chest and forget about it. But why not celebrate the triumphs it brought you by putting it in pride of place in your home? For that, you’ll need our item of the month – the armor stand .
当你在 Minecraft 内升级了自己的盔甲后，对于即将脱下的陈旧且汗臭的那一套来说，你有很多选择。你可以直接把它们扔进大海，并且再不提起，你也可以把它们填进箱子，并且就此遗忘。但是，为什么不把它放在家里最显眼的地方，来庆祝它给你带来过的荣耀呢？要想这么做，你会需要我们本月的物品 —— 盔甲架。

Armor stands were added to Minecraft in the Bountiful Update, released almost a decade ago in September 2014. Wow, suddenly I feel old. When originally added they looked like a weird wooden stick figure, but they’ve been upgraded a bunch of times since and if you haven’t built one in a while then I’d definitely recommend checking out its new features.
盔甲架是在 2014 年 缤纷更新 中被加入的，至今约有十年的历史。哇啊，突然就感觉自己是老人了。盔甲架最早被加入时，它们看起来像一个奇怪的木质火柴人，但它们在时间的推移中进步了不少，如果你还没有在游戏里制作一个的话，那么个人强烈你看看它最新的玩法。

“What features?” I hear you cry. Well, armor stands can be used to store wearable items like armor, mob heads, carved pumpkins and elytra for safe-keeping. They’re easy to use – just hold the thing you want to store, point at the armor stand, and hit the “use” key. To get back, point at it and hit the “use” key again.
“什么玩法？” 我听到有人这么问。嗯，盔甲架可以用于储存并保管可穿戴的物品，例如盔甲、生物头颅、雕刻南瓜和鞘翅。它们的使用操作很简单 —— 只需手持想要保存的物品，对准盔甲架并按下 “使用” 键。要想拿回物品，对准它并再次按下 “使用” 键。

But that’s not all. Armor stands can be pushed by pistons, moved by flowing water, bounced by slime blocks, and pulled with fishing rods. Oh, and unlike most Minecraft items they obey gravity – falling when the block underneath them is removed. If you put enchanted armor on them, the effect is usually disabled but Frost Walker, Depth Strider, and Thorns enchantments will still work.
但这还没完。盔甲架可以被活塞推动，被水流冲走，被黏液块弹起，被鱼竿拉扯。哦对了，这点不同于大多数 Minecraft 物品，因为它们只遵守重力 —— 也就是当下面方块被移除时，它们下落。如果你为它穿戴附魔的盔甲，大多数魔咒都会失效，但冰霜行者、深海探索者和荆棘的魔咒依然会生效。

If you’re comfortable using the /summon command (and if not, what a good excuse to learn it!) then you can create armor stands with arms, and in all kinds of poses – including with the ability to equip and dual-wield weapons. Perfect for creating a row of terrifying unliving warriors outside your base to scare away foes. There’s a good guide on the unofficial (but very helpful) Minecraft wiki.
如果你熟练使用 /summon 命令（如果你不能，那就去学习，这可是个上好的机会！），那么你就能生成一个带有手臂的盔甲架，并且可以摆各种姿势 —— 甚至可以双持武器。可以在你的基地外建造一排无生命的可怕战士，来吓退你的敌人。你可以在非官方（但非常有用）的 Minecraft wiki 上查看这篇教程。

To make one, you only need sticks and a wooden slab. Pretty easy. But if even that is too much for you, you can also steal one from an armory in a taiga village – as well as the iron helmet and chestplate that they’re holding.
想制作一个盔甲架，你只需要若干木棍和一个平滑石头台阶（木台阶？）。这很简单。但如果这样的配方对于你来说都过于昂贵的话，你还可以去针叶林村庄摸一个 —— 同时还能顺走上面穿戴着的铁头盔和胸甲。

In the real world, armor stands have likely been around since shortly after the invention of armor – when someone needed somewhere to put their armor after they took it off, so it didn’t just corrode in a pile on the floor.
在现实世界里，盔甲架很可能在盔甲被发明不久后就出现了 —— 当人们脱下盔甲时需要有地方存放它们，而不是任它们在地上锈蚀。

The earliest proof of body armor being used is found on the Stele of the Vultures – an artifact found in what is today Iraq but dating back to around 4,000 years ago – which shows various battle scenes and celebrates a victory of the city-state of Lagash over its neighbor Umma.
目前有史以来最早使用护身盔甲的记录被发现在秃鹫石碑上 —— 这是一件在今天的伊拉克发现的文物，可以追溯到约 4000 年前，它展示了各种战斗场景，并庆祝拉加什城邦对邻国乌玛的征服。

It’s likely that humans were wearing and storing body armor long before that – it was just made of non-metallic substances that have long-since rotted away. And the stands they used would likely have rotted away too. So it’s probable that we’ll never know when armor stands were originally invented, and so we’ll have to just be grateful that they exist today. Thanks, armor stands!
当然也可能在那之前，人类就已经开始穿着和存放护身盔甲了 —— 只是它是由非金属的材料制成的，而这些材料早已风化。连同它们的盔甲架一起。因此我们可能永远不知道盔甲架最早是什么时候被发明的了，然而这不重要，我们只需要对现在村庄的盔甲架心存感激。谢谢你，盔甲架！
