ExtraHearts
Permanent heart progression with perk-based hearts and an optional Hardcore Lite mode with heart loss and permadeath.
ExtraHearts allows players to permanently increase their maximum health by consuming crafted heart items.
Perk-based heart items are primarily obtained through exploration and loot, encouraging world progression rather than simple crafting chains.
Hearts are granted using attribute-based mechanics to ensure strong compatibility with other mods that modify player health.
An optional Hardcore Lite mode reduces maximum health on death and can enforce a spectator-based permadeath state.
The mod is designed to integrate cleanly into both singleplayer and multiplayer environments without overriding vanilla systems.
