Security Armor in Plutonia Experiment, MAP01

The security armor (also known as green armor) is a powerup that appears as a green breastplate, similar to what is worn by the Doomguy. Picking one up increases the player's armor to 100%, unless the player already has 100% armor or more, in which case it remains on the ground. When security armor is obtained, the game displays the message PICKED UP THE ARMOR.

Security armor will absorb one third of all damage received (rounded down) until it is fully depleted.

Security armor is not included in the items percentage displayed at the end of each level.
