# HeartRevive, Hardcore co-op with heart sharing<\/p>\n
## Concept<\/p>\n
HeartRevive is a hardcore Minecraft plugin that turns death into a collective decision.<\/p>\n
When a player dies, they are removed from active gameplay.<\/p>\n
However, instead of being gone forever, other players can choose to sacrifice part of their own maximum health to bring them back.<\/p>\n
Every heart matters. Survival is no longer individual, but shared.<\/p>\n
## How it works<\/p>\n
### Player death:<\/p>\n
When a player dies, they are switched to Spectator mode, they can’t move anymore and they have a darkness effect.<\/p>\n
They cannot return to the game on their own.<\/p>\n
### Revival:<\/p>\n
Alive players can donate their maximum hearts.<\/p>\n
Donating hearts permanently reduces the donor\u2019s max health.<\/p>\n
Once the dead player receive a donation, he is revived at his spawnpoint.<\/p>\n
The player is returned to Survival mode.<\/p>\n
A global message announces their return.<\/p>\n
_Example:_<\/p>\n
Player A: 20 HP<\/p>\n
Player B: 20 HP<\/p>\n
Player C: 20 HP<\/p>\n
————————————<\/p>\n
Player A: 20 HP<\/p>\n
Player B: 20 HP<\/p>\n
Player C: dead<\/p>\n
————————————<\/p>\n
Player A gives 3 hearts \u2192 17 HP<\/p>\n
Player B gives 1 heart \u2192 19 HP<\/p>\n
Player C returns with 4 hearts<\/p>\n

Otherwise, the dead player will be automatically banned.**<\/p>\n I did this with ChatGPT because it originally seemed like it would just be a server with friends, but I thought it could be cool to share it with other people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Multiplayer Hardcore Miencraft, but easier!
