heartfall
by ax
Heartfall drops healing heart shards from hostile mobs killed by players, and the chance of a drop rises as the player's health falls.
What it does
Hostile mobs defeated in player-versus-environment fights can drop floating heart shards that heal the player who picks them up. The chance of a drop scales linearly, starting at a base of 12.5% at full health and rising by up to 50% when the player is close to death. Players at low health therefore see more shards appear.
The mod needs Fabric API and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) to run. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt across 10 release versions, 1.21.1 – 26.3, under the MIT License, and the source code is open source.
