⏳ sTimeSteal - The Borrowed Breath System

Hardcore SMP | Time Economy | PvP Mechanics

sTimeSteal turns time into your most vital resource. In this hardcore gamemode, your remaining playtime is your life. Every second you play ticks down your clock. If it hits 00:00:00, you are eliminated and enter Ghost Mode.

Survival depends on aggression and economy. Kill others to steal their time, trade minutes with friends using vouchers, store your time in the bank, or wield powerful time-infused items.

✨ Features

1. ⏳ The Life Timer

Every second in-game is a second lost. Your time is always visible above your hotbar.

• Green: Safe (> 6 Hours)
• Gold: Caution (≤ 6 Hours)
• Red: Critical (≤ 1 Hour)

2. 💀 PvP Time Stealing & Bounties

Killing a player isn't just for loot—it's for life.

• Kill Bonus: Steal 1 Hour (Configurable) from your victim.
• Death Penalty: Dying to mobs or suicide costs you 10 Minutes.
• Bounties: Place time bounties on enemies! The killer collects the bounty reward automatically.
• Grace Period: New players receive a configurable grace period, protecting them from PvP time theft.

3. 👻 Ghost Mode

When your time reaches zero, you don't get banned. You become a Ghost!

• Ghosts are invisible, put in Adventure mode, and cannot interact with the physical world (no breaking/placing blocks, picking up items, or dealing/taking damage).
• You must haunt your friends until they resurrect you!

4. 💎 Economy & Trading

Time is money. Literally.

• /paytime: Send minutes directly to other players.
• /withdraw: Convert your time into physical Time Vouchers (Paper items) to trade.
• /timebank: Store your time safely away from death penalties, but beware of the deposit fee!
• /timetop: See who the wealthiest players are on the server.

5. 🕯️ Revive Beacons & Abilities

Spend your time or gather resources for powerful rituals.

• Revive Beacons: Craft a normal or a Greater Revive Beacon (which grants more starting time). Place it and sacrifice a player's head inside the GUI to resurrect them!
• Time-Infused Items: Craft items like the Time Sword (costs time to deal bonus damage) or the Time Shield (costs 30 minutes to reverse a fatal blow).
