HealthEx
by ChongYu668
HealthEx changes how hearts and satiety grow: players gain experience from eating certain items and from playing, and each level adds a heart.
What it does
A new player begins with a small pool of hearts and satiety. Gaining levels adds one heart per 5 levels, and higher levels need more experience to upgrade. Diamonds, emeralds, lapis lazuli and redstone add experience when they are eaten by right-clicking. Sleeping restores health, and a player can lie in a bed during the day to pass the night after 9 PM.
Satiety drains faster while jumping or running, and health cannot regenerate while satiety is empty. Players who starve die, and poisoning lasts half as long. HealthEx runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge, for 5 release versions 1.21.11 – 26.3, under All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source.
