Hardcore Death System

The server runs a custom HardcoreRevive plugin (v2.6.0) that modifies the standard Minecraft hardcore experience. Instead of permanent death, players have multiple ways to survive or be brought back.

How It Works

Player Dies
    │
    ├─ Grace Period Active? → Respawn normally (no penalty)
    │
    ├─ Has Trapped Soul? → Soul consumed, respawn normally
    │
    └─ No Protection? → Banned for 36 hours
                              │
                              ├─ Another player uses Revival Totem → Unbanned immediately
                              └─ Wait 36 hours → Auto-unbanned

Death Behavior

When you die:

1. Trapped Souls are never dropped — They are soulbound and removed from your death drops
2. If saved by a Trapped Soul — You see a message showing how many souls you have left, then respawn in Survival mode with remaining souls restored
3. If banned — You're kicked with the message: "You died in Hardcore mode! You will auto-revive in 36 hours, or a player can use a Revival Totem."
