Grace Period Mod
Experience a forgiving take on hardcore survival multiplayer. The Grace Period Mod allows players to respawn and continue playing during a configurable grace window instead of being forced into spectator mode immediately upon death—perfect for SMP servers where you want stakes without permanent loss.
Key Features
✨ Configurable Grace Window
Set any duration (default 1 hour) for respawning after death. Hardcore mode restrictions are automatically lifted during the grace period.
⚱️ Corpse & Grave System
Bodies leave behind a barrel grave with a player head marker at the death location. All inventory items are automatically captured, preventing duplicate drops and making loot recovery intuitive.
🛡️ PvP Control
PvP damage is blocked during the grace period while PvE damage remains enabled, keeping the challenge alive and preventing spawn-camping.
⚙️ In-Game Admin Commands
