Hardcore Revive+

``` This project is the official community-maintained continuation of Hardcore Revive+, developed with permission from the original author (StapleTT). ``` # Hardcore Revive+ ## Development Status Hardcore Revive+ is now community maintained. The latest stable release is **v1.11.7** for **Minecraft 26.1.2** and **v1.12.0** for **Minecraft 26.2** and is available as both, a traditional datapack and as a datapack packaged inside a mod. Development is currently focused on keeping Hardcore Revive+ compatible with future Minecraft versions while also continuing work on the standalone Fabric mod port. The standalone Fabric mod is a long-term project and is currently intended for development and testing. It should not yet be considered production ready until an official stable release has been announced. --- ## Project Status Hardcore Revive+ was originally created by **StapleTT**. With the author's permission, development continues to keep Hardcore Revive+ compatible with newer Minecraft versions while preserving the original gameplay experience. The goal of this continuation is not to replace the original project, but to continue maintaining and improving it while remaining as compatible as possible with existing worlds and servers. Alongside the original datapack, development is also ongoing for an optional standalone Fabric mod. The standalone mod allows features, compatibility improvements and optimizations that cannot easily be implemented inside a datapack while still keeping the original gameplay intact. The original Discord server remains available for the existing Hardcore Revive+ community. --- ## Need Help?

Are you tired of vanilla Minecraft death mechanics? Maybe respawning infinitely feels too easy, but Hardcore mode with only one life is too punishing. Hardcore Revive+ introduces a fully configurable lives system that allows every server or world to choose its own balance between survival, cooperation and difficulty. Players receive a configurable number of lives. After losing their final life they become a Ghost instead of immediately leaving the world forever. Ghosts can still interact with other players in various ways until they are revived. Depending on the selected settings players can: * revive each other * automatically revive after a configurable delay * regain lives through Life Jam * steal lives from other players * spectate and assist living players Everything is configurable through an in-game menu. --- # Key Features * Configurable lives system. * Ghost gameplay after losing the final life. * Soul Charm revival system. * Life Jam item for restoring lives. * Optional Lifesteal support. * Optional automatic revival. * Configurable ghost spawn locations. * Configurable automatic revive spawn locations. * Configurable difficulty behaviour. * Dedicated Hardcore Revive+ server spawn. * Vanilla respawn compatibility. * Works both as a datapack and as a datapack packaged inside a mod. --- ## Ghost Gameplay After a player loses their final life they become a Ghost. Ghosts are spectators that remain part of the world instead of permanently dying. Ghosts can: * freely spectate the world * keep chunks loaded * possess living players (optional) * wait for another player to revive them * automatically revive if Auto Revive is enabled This creates a multiplayer experience that encourages teamwork instead of permanently removing players from the server. --- ## Revival System Players can revive Ghosts by crafting a **Soul Charm**. Dropping the Soul Charm allows a Ghost to consume it and return to life. The amount of lives restored is fully configurable. Optionally, temporary debuffs can be applied after crafting a Soul Charm and after being revived. --- ## Life Jam Life Jam allows players to regain lost lives without dying again. Servers can freely enable or disable Life Jam crafting. The maximum amount of lives can never exceed the configured limit. --- ## Lifesteal When enabled, defeating another player grants an additional life. This feature is completely optional and can be enabled or disabled at any time. --- ## Auto Revive Ghosts can automatically revive after a configurable amount of time. The revival timer can be adjusted through the in-game configuration menu. The location where automatically revived players appear is also fully configurable. --- ## Ghost Spawn Hardcore Revive+ allows you to configure where players appear after losing their final life. ### Available Ghost Spawn Modes #### Server Spawn Ghosts appear at the dedicated Hardcore Revive+ server spawn. This spawn point is completely independent from Minecraft's vanilla world spawn and can be changed at any time. #### Nearest Living Pl
