Shared Life

Makes all players share one health bar. When one player takes damage, it affects all players in the world. The intention is to create a challenging multiplayer experience where players cooperate to survive (or blame each other for their deaths). Ideally paired with hardcore mode.

Natural regeneration is a group effort: the shared health only regenerates while every player is fed. This means a single player can’t sit in safety and eat the group back to health while others are in danger.

Features

• Shared health bar.
• Natural regeneration requires the whole group to stay fed.
• Announcement in chat when someone takes damage, including amount and source.
• Damage summary in chat when the shared life ends, showing how much damage each player took since it was last at full health.

Optional Features (off by default)

• Shared hunger bar.
• Shared experience.
• Sharing death only: one player’s death kills everyone, without sharing health.

Version Support

This is a hobby project developed on a best-effort basis. When updates happen, they target the latest Minecraft release and 1.21.1. Other versions keep their existing builds but probably won’t receive fixes.
