PvP Gamerule

by rotgruengelb's archive

PvP Gamerule lets server owners switch player-versus-player combat on or off with a single world gamerule.

FabricQuiltServer-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.20 – 1.21.1

What it does

The mod adds a pvp gamerule that is true by default, so combat between players works as it does in vanilla. Setting it to false disables player-versus-player damage for the whole world. It runs on the server only, so players join without installing anything. Fabric API is required, and files are published for Fabric and Quilt for 1.21.1, with builds covering 1.20 – 1.21.1.

Key features

  1. Toggleable PvP gamerule

    A single pvp gamerule controls whether players can damage each other, changed with the usual gamerule command.

  2. On by default

    The pvp rule starts as true, so worlds keep standard player combat until an owner changes it.

  3. Server-side operation

    Only the server runs the rule, so clients need no install and join the same way they would otherwise.
