What is Astra Lifesteal?

A polished lifesteal core for modern Paper servers. When a player dies, the killer steals their hearts. Run out and face elimination — or fight your way back with shops, crafting, and revives.

Heart Stealing

When a player dies, the killer takes their hearts. Set min and max limits, disable stealing in specific worlds, and control what happens when someone is already at the cap.

Elimination & Revival

Choose what happens at zero hearts: temp-ban with custom durations, spectator lock with restricted actions, or disable it entirely. Revive eliminated players with commands or craftable beacon items.

Anti-Exploit

Same-IP blocking, killer cooldowns, and automatic staff alerts stop alt-account farming and boost abuse before it starts.

SQL Storage

SQLite by default. Scale to MySQL, MariaDB, or PostgreSQL for networks. Async writes, connection pooling, and cross-server ready.

---

Heart Shop

Let players spend their hard-earned hearts on ranks, items, perks, or anything else you can run as a command. The shop is fully managed in-game.

• Live in-game editor for easy management
• Set prices in hearts, not currency
• Permission-gated entries
• Run any command on purchase
• Custom slot layout and filler items

---

Custom Crafting Recipes

Design your own recipes for hearts and revive beacons without restarting the server. Players craft their way back into the fight.

• Shaped and shapeless recipe support
• In-game recipe editor GUI
• Create, toggle, and delete live
• Results: withdrawn hearts or revive beacons
• Auto-saves for instant persistence

---

Zero-Heart Consequences

When a player hits the minimum heart threshold, the configured elimination mode kicks in automatically. Fair, consistent, and configurable.

• Temp-ban with custom duration per rank
• Spectator lock with action restrictions
• Revive command + beacon items
• Broadcast messages on revive
• Minimum hearts restored after elimination
