## Main Features

### Last Stand

When Second Wind triggers, players are downed instead of dying instantly.

Downed players are forced into a low-mobility state with a visible countdown timer. They can still look around, crawl, and attempt to survive before their timer expires.

By default:

• Players enter a forced crawling/swimming pose
• Healing and eating are blocked while downed
• Incoming damage can shorten the remaining timer
• Repeated downs become increasingly dangerous

The default base downed timer is 10 seconds, but nearly every part of the system is configurable.

### Fight Back Up

A downed player is not helpless.

Players can revive themselves by securing a valid kill before their timer runs out, creating high-risk comeback moments during combat.

By default:

• Hostile mobs count
• Player kills count
• Passive mob kills do not count
• Pet kills for the owner do not count

Neutral mobs can still count if they are actively targeting the downed player.

Successful revives grant:

• Restored health
• Temporary regeneration
• Brief post-revive invulnerability

### Multiplayer Revives

Teammates can pull each other back from the brink.

Players can revive downed allies by holding interaction nearby, creating tense rescue moments during boss fights, PvP encounters, caves, or large multiplayer battles.

Revives can optionally:

• Be interrupted by damage
• Require close range
• Use configurable channel times
• Trigger custom visual and sound effects

Default revive settings:

| Setting | Default | | --- | --- | | Revive Channel Time | `2. 0 seconds` | | Revive Distance | `2. 5 blocks` | | Damage Interrupts Revive | `true` |

### Repeat Downs

Repeated downs become more dangerous.

Every successful downed state can shorten the next survival window until the penalty resets, discouraging reckless play during extended fights.
