Note:
This mod is to be used with normal Minecraft worlds. It's not compatible with acctual Hardcore worlds.
When you die you lose a heart. With no hearts left you will switch to spectator mode. This is similar to hardcore difficulty in Minecraft but less severe. You can also restore hearts by eating enchanted golden apples.

- You lose 1 heart when you die
- You gain 1 heart when you eat an enchanted golden apple (can be enabled/disabled via gamerule)
- Configure the maximum hearts a player can have (default 20, set via gamerule)
- Set a players hearts via command
Gamerules:
- /gamerule maxHearts value (default 20 hearts)
- /gamerule canRestoreHearts true/false (default is true)
Commands:
- /playerhearts _value (_set the current hearts of a player)
You can gain hearts by eating enchanted golden apples.
