A Fabric server mod that implements a finite "lives" system in place of the standard hardcore mode perma-death, with the ability to track other players' lives in a scoreboard. Limited Lives System: Instead of standard permanent death, players have a set number of lives. Admin Commands: Special commands to manage, give, or take away lives. Tab List Integration: A visual formatter that displays the remaining lives of players directly in the multiplayer Tab list. Custom Server MOTD: A feature that intercepts the server ping to display custom information (likely regarding the hardcore status) in the server list menu before joining.
