❤️ LifestealSwapper
A Paper plugin that adds configurable lifesteal mechanics:
- Killer gains hearts and victim loses hearts on PvP kills. - Players drop their own head on death. - Placing a player's head triggers configurable heart swapping behavior. - Optional tab-list formatting to show each player's max hearts.
Features
- Fully configurable heart bounds (`min`, `max`, `starting`). - Configurable kill transfer values (`killer-gain`, `victim-loss`). - Head swap modes: - `FULL_SWAP` - `TRANSFER_FROM_OWNER` - `TRANSFER_TO_OWNER` - Configurable messages and sounds. - `/lifesteal reload` command. - Admin heart management commands.
Commands
- `/lifesteal reload` - reload plugin config. - `/lifesteal hearts get <player>` - view a player's max hearts. - `/lifesteal hearts set <player> <amount>` - set max hearts (clamped by config min/max). - `/lifesteal hearts add <player> <amount>` - add hearts. - `/lifesteal hearts remove <player> <amount>` - remove hearts. - `/lifesteal hearts reset <player>` - reset to configured starting hearts.
Permissions
- `lifesteal.admin` - allows all `/lifesteal` admin commands.
