Details
Kill, steal, survive. Tovek Lifesteal gives you the classic Lifesteal SMP game. Every kill takes a heart from the victim and gives it to the killer. Players who lose all their hearts are out. Part of the free Tovek plugins by Toprak Eker.
Features
- Heart stealing: killing a player moves one heart (2 max health) from the victim to you.
- If the killer is already at the heart limit, or the death has no player killer, the heart drops as an item instead.
- Heart items that you can hold. Right-click to use one and gain a heart. Item material and custom model data can be changed.
/withdrawheart [amount]turns your own hearts into items (you cannot go below the minimum).- Craftable heart: a shaped recipe of 4 Netherite Ingots, 4 Totems of Undying and a Nether Star.
- Elimination at zero hearts: switch to Spectator mode or ban the player (
elimination-action), with a server message and a title on screen. - Eliminated players stay eliminated after they rejoin or respawn. Admins can revive players.
- Heart limits and defaults:
default-hearts10,min-hearts1,max-hearts20 (highest allowed is 512). - All messages use MiniMessage and can be changed.
