Time Lived
Time Lived tracks how many days a player has survived since the last death and sends a message after each respawn.
What it does
When a player dies, the mod shows a message that states how long the player lived before that death, and it sends a follow-up message after the player respawns. Each survival streak is counted in days, and the player can see how long they lived in the current run. A world record is also kept, so a player can compare the current streak against the longest one recorded so far.
The messages are set in a configuration file and can be changed. Several messages can be listed, separated by commas, and one is picked at random from the entries whose minimum day count has been reached. Variables let the text insert the number of days survived and the previous record. Players who live 1000 days or more get a separate message, and new sections can be added for other thresholds. Version 1.1.0 changed how messages are set: the earlier single message property is deprecated, and builds before 1.1.0 use that property instead.
Time Lived is published for Fabric only, with builds covering 1.20.1 – 26.2. It is server-side only, so players join without installing it, and it is released under the MIT License as open source.

Use cases
Survival servers
Server owners can use the death messages and world record as a light competitive element on survival worlds.
Who it’s for: Server owners who run survival worlds and want death messages with survival streaks. Only players who join a server running the mod receive the messages.
How it compares
Survival Time is client-side only, open source under the MIT License and published for 1.21.11 alone, so it covers a single game version. Last Death Location is also client-side only and open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, with files for 1.21.5 – 26.2. Time Lived differs from both by running on the server and covering 1.20.1 – 26.2.
