A Hytale plugin for a peaceful experience.

This plugin makes monsters passive toward players by default. When a player attacks a monster, the player is considered aggressive for a configurable duration, causing nearby monsters to target and attack them. After the player's last attack, a timer counts down a configured duration, and once it expires, monsters return to being passive toward that player.
