Inferno Core
Inferno Core is a Fabric server mod that supplies the core features of the Mephisto's Inferno SMP, a semi-hardcore survival setup with roles and mana.
What it does
Inferno Core implements the server-side systems of Mephisto's Inferno SMP, including its role and mana mechanics. The server needs the mod, and players may add it on the client, but a single-player world can also run it. Fabric API is required, and Cardinal Components API is bundled inside the mod. BanHammer is optional. Files exist for 1.21.8 only, with 1.0.2 as the latest, released under the MIT License as open source.
