PartsVitality
A hardcore damage and healing system for Minecraft, inspired by "Escape from Tarkov."
PartsVitality completely overhauls Minecraft's standard health system by introducing a detailed part-based HP system. This plugin demands more tactical thinking, careful injury management, and a new level of awareness from players. Deciding which body part to target and which to protect, constantly monitoring your own condition and surroundings, and engaging in tense gameplay where a single moment of carelessness can be fatal becomes crucial.
> [!NOTE] > No Resource Pack Required! All features, including the part HP display, are achieved using vanilla mechanics. Players don't need to download anything extra to get the full experience.
Key Features
- Multi-Language Support: Health is not a single bar but is managed individually across four body parts: "Head," "Chest," "Legs," and "Feet." - Multi-Language Support: Using Ray Tracing technology, the plugin accurately determines which body part an attack hits. Tactics like headshots or aiming for the legs become vital! - Multi-Language Support: - Multi-Language Support: Taking damage to a specific part triggers corresponding debuffs (e.g., Nausea from head damage, Slowness from leg damage). - Multi-Language Support: When a part's HP drops to 0, it becomes "broken," reducing the player's maximum HP until they respawn. - Multi-Language Support: - Multi-Language Support: Automatic health regeneration from saturation is disabled. All healing must be done manually. - Multi-Language Support: Use items defined in `config.yml` to heal by clicking the corresponding armor piece for the injured part in the inventory. - Multi-Language Support: "Broken" parts cannot be healed with regular items. A special "surgery" item is required for first aid, making the part treatable again. - Multi-Language Support: - Multi-Language Support: Armor plays a crucial role in protecting the specific body part it covers. - Multi-Language Support: Armor durability can be configured to decrease significantly based on the damage received, making it a critical resource to manage. - Multi-Language Support: Nearly every aspect of the plugin—part HP, damage multipliers, healing items, debuffs, and more—can be freely adjusted in `config.yml`. - Multi-Language Support: All messages displayed to players are translatable. It supports English (`en`) and Japanese (`ja`) by default.

duration-seconds: 3
... sound settings ...
Settings for surgery (healing broken parts)
surgery:
Time required for surgery (in seconds).
duration-seconds: 10
Amount of part HP restored by surgery. Setting this to 1.0 will make the part usable again and allow normal healing.

... and so on
Durability settings

How to Play
- Shift + Right-Click: In your inventory, hover over any armor piece and Shift + Right-Click to switch to Part HP display mode. The armor's durability bar will now show the HP of that part. Repeat the action to switch back.

- Left-Click: Hold a healing item (e.g., Iron Ingot) on your cursor and Left-Click the armor piece of the part you want to heal in your inventory. A timer will start, and upon completion, the part's HP will be restored.

- Perform Surgery: If a part is broken (HP is 0), you must first treat it with a surgery item (e.g., Diamond). This will slightly restore the part's HP, allowing it to be healed with regular healing items again.
