Attribute Keeper

Attribute Keeper is a mod that allows users to define attribute, hunger, and XP behavior when a player respawns after dying.

All features can be toggled individually, so you could potentially disable the entire mod if necessary.

❤️ Attributes

Q: What is an attribute?

An attribute is a common way for Minecraft to keep track of entity statistics. These can include health, movement speed, swim speed, reach distance, attack damage, armor and more.

Attribute persistence is the core of Attribute Keeper. In vanilla Minecraft, each time a player is cloned through respawning or some types of teleportation, all attributes are reset to their default values. This means that modifications to a player's health, movement speed, or attack damage all get reset on death.

While some modifications are intentionally reset, such as modifiers gained via potions or armors, adjustments to the player's base attribute value are also reset, negating any intentional changes.

Attribute Keeper allows users to specify an attribute value and determine whether it persists through death or even decays after respawn.

For example, users could define behavior that causes players to lose 1/2 a heart of health each time they die, down to a minimum of 5 hearts (10 health).

Scaling Health - While not directly incompatible, the health modifications added by this mod directly conflict with Attribute Keeper's attribute handling. Attribute Keeper should be compatible so long as you do not define any behavior using the attribute generic.maxHealth.
