RealSurvivor
by gmff
RealSurvivor turns survival into a stricter test by adding energy, hydration-style status and waste systems that the player must manage in-game.
What it does
The mod adds new status systems, including energy, dirt accumulation and excretion, that the player has to plan for while playing. A special HUD shows detailed stats so the player can monitor physical condition over time. Difficulty is customizable: settings can be adjusted in-game to change how fast energy drains, how quickly dirt builds up and how often excretion occurs.
RealSurvivor is aimed at players who want a more realistic survival environment where choices affect life and death, and at server owners who want to tune how demanding the game is. It can be disabled from the in-game menu, so editing config files is not needed for that step. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt, covering 1.12.2, 1.16.5, 1.18.2 and 1.19.2. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
