Stamina!
by MossyPacks+
Stamina adds a stamina system to survival play, so sprinting, jumping, fighting and swimming draw down an energy value that players must manage.
What it does
Energy drains while the player sprints, jumps, fights or swims, and it regenerates over time while the player rests. When the value reaches zero, movement slows until it recovers, which makes routine movement a choice rather than a constant. A visible stamina bar shows the remaining endurance, and a modded HUD bar is available for better visibility.
The behavior can be adjusted through datapack functions. The mod is installed by dropping its datapack into a world's datapacks folder and reloading the world with the reload command. From version 1.0.6 on, joining a world with the datapack active shows new players a language picker, offering German or English. Stamina is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, across 33 release versions 1.16.5 – 26.1.2, under the MIT License.
Because the server runs the system, server required and client optional is the environment: the server must run it, while players may add the HUD bar on their side. The mod is not open source.
Key features
Energy drain
Sprinting, jumping, fighting and swimming each consume stamina, so movement carries a cost during play.
Passive regeneration
Stamina recovers over time while the player rests, and the rate can be changed through the datapack.
Visible stamina bar
A bar on the HUD shows the remaining endurance, and a modded HUD bar offers a clearer display.
Datapack customization
Behavior is adjusted by editing files inside the datapack, and the world is reloaded to apply changes.
Language selection
A selection screen offers German or English when a new player joins a world with the datapack loaded.
