Alive | Enhanced Survival
Alive | Enhanced Survival adds thirst, stamina, insomnia and adrenaline bars that change how a player's body responds to exertion, drowning and lack of rest.
What it does
Thirst has to be relieved by drinking fluids, with honey as the only exception, or the player eventually dies. Stamina drains when the player walks, jumps, runs or otherwise exerts themselves too hard, and a depleted bar leaves the player tired. Insomnia builds up the longer a player goes without sleep. Drowning and the thirst bar also feed into one another, since drowning raises the thirst level.
When health falls low, the player feels tired. An adrenaline effect gives a short boost to speed, strength and jump height after the player takes damage. Reaching half a heart triggers a Terminally Ill state that applies poison for two minutes. The mod is set up through a config file, and a debug target setting limits effects to a single player username.
Alive | Enhanced Survival runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Builds are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 21 release versions, 1.19.4 – 26.3, and it is released under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source. Source code and an issue tracker are linked publicly.
Key features
Thirst bar
Drinking fluids keeps the thirst bar filled, and the player dies if it is never refilled.
Stamina and fatigue
Walking, jumping and running drain stamina, and an empty bar leaves the player tired.
Insomnia bar
The insomnia bar fills the longer a player stays awake, with tiredness as the result.
Adrenaline and Terminally Ill
Damage triggers a temporary speed, strength and jump boost, while half a heart starts a poison effect.

What the author says
Config implementation is currently being worked on! Currently a wip setup is being released with the 26.2 version of Alive 1.44.0. Expect some issues and weirdness as it is being ported and backup your worlds! To everyone saying the mod doesn't work, or that they could not see the hud, turns out I am a bloody idiot…
