This mod enhances Hardcore mode by introducing a configurable extra lives system, allowing players to continue playing after death while keeping the hardcore experience challenging and meaningful.
It provides administrator-only commands that can be used to grant additional lives to specific players, giving server owners full control over player progression.
By default, each player starts with 3 lives, but the number of default lives can be easily adjusted in the configuration file, making the mod suitable for both small private worlds and larger multiplayer servers.
Administrators can add lives using the command:** /lives add
Warning: This mod is not compatible with normal Survival mode.
