Sync Hunger and Health
by Trilobite974
Sync Hunger and Health links the health, hunger and death of every player on a server, so the whole team shares one life.
What it does
When one player takes damage, every linked player feels it, and when one player eats, hunger is restored for the whole group. The mod changes the state shared between players at once rather than on a timer, so the effect is immediate on each player's screen.
Death is shared too: if one player dies, the rest of the team falls with them. This turns survival into a cooperative challenge where players depend on each other. Sync Hunger and Health runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything, and it requires Fabric API. Files are published for Fabric only, across 17 release versions 1.20 – 1.21.11, under the MIT License and not open source.
Key features
Shared health
Damage taken by any linked player is applied to the health of every player in the group.
Shared hunger
Food eaten by one player restores hunger for all players, so no one starves while another eats.
Shared death
When one player dies, the whole team is affected, making the group's survival depend on each member.
Cooperative pressure
The shared rules turn the game into a teamwork challenge in which help from others is required rather than optional.

How it compares
Shared Everything is a Fabric server mod for 1.21.1 under the MIT License and is also server-side only. Shared Health by Gamepire is server-side only for 1.21, under All rights reserved, so its license differs from this mod's MIT License. ShareLife is the one alternative that needs both sides, with client and server files covering 1.21.1 – 26.2.
