LifeSteal FR

by Stoupy51

Life Steal FR, a datapack for the server, changes how hearts are gained and lost when players die and kill each other.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.21 – 26.3

What it does

Revived players respawn with 4 hearts, the maximum is 20 hearts, and the minimum is 0 hearts. A player who dies from natural causes loses a heart, and that heart drops at the place of death where another player can pick it up. Players who reach the minimum are banned. The datapack adds a texture for the revive beacon and uses the 1.21 food and consumable components for eating a heart and using a renamed revive beacon.

The settings are stored in a scoreboard and can be read and changed in game with operator permissions, either through an interactive menu or with manual commands. Half hearts mode is off, so hearts are counted in whole numbers. Killing another player takes a heart from the victim and gives one to the killer. Hearts never despawn, and a server can enable a last chance rule that lets a player at the minimum plus one survive with half a heart in half-heart mode.

The datapack is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files covering 1.21 – 26.3 across 17 release versions, including snapshot builds. It is licensed under the MIT License and is open source. Servers need the ban feature enabled in server.properties, or banning does not work, and the server must be restarted after that change. The server must run it, while players may leave it out.

Key features

  1. Heart limits

    Hearts are capped at a maximum of 20 and a minimum of 0, with a separate cap on hearts gained by consuming crafted hearts.

  2. Heart drops on death

    A player who dies from natural causes loses a heart, which drops at the death location and can be picked up.

  3. Steal on kill

    Killing a player moves a heart from the victim to the killer, and the rule can be switched off.

  4. Ban at minimum

    Players who reach the minimum heart limit are banned, or moved to spectator mode if that option is enabled.

  5. Configurable settings

    Options such as instant heart consumption and heart despawn can be changed interactively or with commands.
