You Die You Lose a Heart (Discontinued)
With You Die You Lose a Heart installed, a death costs a heart, and running out of hearts sends the player into spectator mode.
What it does
Each death removes one heart, and a player who loses every heart is forced into spectator mode. The gamerule maxHearts caps the total at a default of 20, and canRestoreHearts, default true, decides whether players regain hearts at all. Eating enchanted golden apples restores hearts, which gives those apples a use beyond PvP. The mod is a Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt mod for 1.18.1 – 1.21, under the BSD 2-Clause License, and it is not open source. It is discontinued and runs on client and server.
