Hardcore Revival Beacon
Hardcore Revival Beacon lets a player bring back a fallen ally in a hardcore survival world by placing a special beacon block.
What it does
The mod adds a Revive Beacon, a crafted block that a player places to pull a dead teammate back into the world. A beacon can only be dismantled by the person who placed it, which keeps it bound to its creator. Placing the block triggers a lightning strike that marks the spot and binds the beacon to the placer's soul, and the sky visibly reacts to the placement.
When the creator interacts with a beacon, a dedicated interface opens that shows the state of the owner across dimensions. A player who is drifting as a spectator can be called back: the beacon sends a surge of energy that teleports the fallen player to world spawn and restores their physical form, returning them to Survival Mode. The mod targets multiplayer survival groups on Forge and NeoForge, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it.
Files are published for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 on Forge, and for 1.21.8 on NeoForge, with 1.1.0 as the latest file for each loader. The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 license and is not open source.
