MoreDifficulty

MoreDifficulty is a lightweight, in-memory Paper plugin designed to enhance PvE combat challenges on your Minecraft server without relying on configuration files (config.yml). It features randomized gear variations, mob health scaling, and instant difficulty presets that can be adjusted directly in-game.

Key Features

No config.yml (In-Memory Setup): All configuration changes apply instantly in real-time without needing to edit text files on the server backend.

Instant Difficulty Presets: Switch the server's difficulty tier in a single command using built-in presets:

🌸 Serenity - Relaxed and peaceful, just slightly tougher than vanilla peaceful mode.

⚖️ Medium - A balanced and fair combat experience.

⚔️ Challenging - Standard difficulty that tests your survival skills.

🔥 Extreme - Dangerous encounters with much deadlier mobs.

💀 Catastrophic - Pure hell! Mobs spawn with full high-tier gear and massive health pools.

Balanced Armor & Gear Variations: Mobs spawn with randomized sets ranging from Leather, Chainmail, and Iron up to Diamond (deliberately excluding Netherite to protect early-game balance).

Diverse Weapon Pool Including Spears: Zombies and skeletons are no longer limited to basic swords and bows—they can wield axes, shovels, and tridents!

Custom Drop Chance System: Control the exact percentage of whether equipped gear drops upon a mob's death (from 0% for clean grounds to 100% for abundant loot).

Smart Tab-Completion: Fully integrated auto-suggestions on admin commands to prevent typos and help new staff members easily navigate the plugin.
