A server-side rule pack for a hardcore-style SMP. Everything is configurable, and most of it can be changed live from the console — no restarts needed.
Features
Items
- One Mace per server. Only a single Mace can ever be crafted. The holder shows up on everyone's locator bar, so the only way to get it is to hunt them down.
- End Crystals & Respawn Anchors banned — can't be crafted, placed, or used. Their explosions also deal no damage to players.
- Command-driven item limits. Ban or limit any item live:
/smprules ban <item>— no crafting, placing, or use/smprules limit <item> <count>— only N craftable server-wide/smprules allow <item>— remove a limit/smprules list | info | reset | reload
Dimensions
- Open and close the Nether and End on your schedule:
/dimension open <nether|end>//dimension close <nether|end>//dimension status
- Both start closed. A closed dimension can't be portaled into, and closing one sends anyone inside back to the overworld.
Combat
- No combat logging — disconnecting in combat kills you (and drops your gear).
- No elytra in combat — you can't glide while combat-tagged.
- No elytra-macing — Mace hits set up by gliding are blocked.
World
- 3000-block world border (Nether auto-scaled to match coordinates).
- Locator bar disabled for everyone except the current Mace holder.
