Supported MC version 1.20.1 - 26.1.2

You and your friends will start out with 8 lives (configurable) and need to team up to survive. At the beginning there is a grace period where no one will lose lives, after a configurable amount of time you will lose Grace Period and start to lose lives on death. This is meant to be a fun gamemode or tool for server owners if they would like a lightly configurable experience. You are able to revive teammates in the same team and add lives to yourself. More info on set up if you keep reading.

Player Commands:

This will try to revive a player that is online and in the same team as you.

Optional Settings

Prevent "dead" players from leaving spawn
/function teamlives:marker

This command will set a marker where you are standing and will not let players go far away from it. (If you want to move it make sure you kill the marker entity tagged <DeathZoneMarker> the last one.)

Turn life loss off for specific players
/scoreboard players set <playername> LifeLoss 0

This command allows you to turn off life loss on death for the specific player you want.

If you are running a server
This data pack will not pass Grace Period time if the server is paused or if it is offline. Change this property so that if no one is online players timers continue to go down.

pause-when-empty-seconds=-1

Another thing you can do to prevent server lag is prevent spectators from generating chunks.

/gamerule spectatorsGenerateChunks false
