Player Heartbeat

💓 Player Heartbeat: Feel the Pressure

Turn your Minecraft server into a high-stakes thriller. Player Heartbeat adds an immersive, frenetic proximity system that alerts you when other players are nearby.

Perfect for PvP servers, UHC, Battle Royales, or just adding a layer of paranoia to your SMP.

👁️ How it works

Forget about x-ray or boring nametags. Trust your senses. When a player enters your radius, a heart icon appears on your screen (above the hotbar). As they get closer, the heart beats faster and changes color, accompanied by an intensifying heartbeat sound.

📡 The Radar System

The detection radius is calibrated for balanced PvP encounters:

• 💛 Yellow (Warning): 46 – 70 blocks. Someone is lurking in the distance.
• 🧡 Orange (Danger): 21 – 45 blocks. They are getting closer.
• ❤️ Red (CRITICAL): 0 – 20 blocks. PREPARE TO FIGHT!

⚙️ Smart Features

• 🎚️ Integrated Volume Control: Is the heartbeat too intense? You don’t need to lower your master volume. We’ve added a custom “Heartbeat” slider directly inside Minecraft’s Music & Sounds options menu. Adjust it to your liking!
• Fair Play Logic: The system only works for players in Survival or Adventure mode.
• Anti-Cheat/Admin Friendly: Players in Creative or Spectator modes are completely invisible to the radar. They won’t trigger the heartbeat, and they won’t see the heartbeat interface.
• Admin Controls: Need to pause the chaos? Use commands to toggle the system globally.
  • /heartbeat enable – Activates the system.
  • /heartbeat disable – Deactivates it instantly for everyone (Useful for lobbies or pre-game grace periods).

🎥 Demonstration

(Note: In this demo, a Creeper is used as a reference for the detection system, but in-game it works specifically for players).

It may seem a lot of blocks, but trust me, it’s perfectly balanced for players!
