In the future:

1. Creating a config file to customize the plugin's elements on the server to meet individual needs. - Completed
2. Combining the Russian and English versions into one. - Completed
3. Maybe some more cosmetic effects
4. Releasing a version of the plugin that is compatible with the Corpse mod (already available, but needs more testing)

✨ Core Features

🆘 Concussion & Rescue System When players take fatal damage, they enter a 5-minute concussion state instead of dying instantly. Teammates can rescue them using:

Golden Apple → 20% health recovery

Enchanted Golden Apple → 50% health recovery + permanent +1 heart max health (if below 10 hearts)

Totem of Undying → Full heal (minimum 20 HP)

👻 Intelligent Ghost Mode

Players who aren't rescued become ghosts with special abilities:

Invisibility and night vision

Flight capabilities

Instant healing and saturation effects

Cannot interact with the world (blocks, entities, items)

Switch between ghost and spectator modes with /necromode

⚗️ Ritual Revival System

Ghosts can be properly resurrected through dangerous totem rituals:

Requirements: Reviver must hold totems in both hands with at least 4 hearts of health

Progressive Difficulty: Revival failure chance starts at 70% and decreases with successful attempts between same players (minimum 10%)

Consequences: Failed revivals spawn zombie versions of the target

Health Exchange: Reviver loses 2 hearts max HP, resurrected gains 1 heart max HP

⚡ Admin & Utility Features

Force Revival: /necroforce <player|all> for emergency situations

Quick Transition: /ghostnow to skip concussion timer

Manual Ghost Toggle: /gamemode ghost (with permission)

Configurable Death Modes: Choose between ghost or spectator afterlife
