TIME WARP: THE TEMPORAL ENCHANTMENT

Overview

Tired of losing all your progress to a Creeper explosion, lava, or a sudden fall into the void?

Time Warp introduces a powerful enchantment that grants you a second chance at life by literally rewinding time when you would normally die.

Key Feature: Temporal Resilience

The Time Warp enchantment acts as a powerful “insurance policy” against death.

If you are wearing a full set of Time Warp enchanted armor and take fatal damage, the enchantment automatically activates and rewinds your state instead of letting you die.

How It Works

• The mod continuously records a snapshot of the player state (every 5 ticks / ~4 times per second)
• When fatal damage occurs, the system triggers a rewind
• The player is restored to a previous safe state (default: seconds before death)

Restored data:

• Health & hunger
• Position
• Full inventory & armor
• Experience (XP)
• Selected hotbar slot

To prevent duplication exploits, dropped items within the rewind window are removed automatically.

How to Get the Enchantment

Time Warp is a rare and powerful enchantment:

• Enchanting Table (very rare)
• Treasure loot (Dungeons, Mineshafts, Strongholds, etc.)
• Villager trading (Expert Librarians)
• Anvil application via enchanted book

Visual & Gameplay Feedback

• Portal / enchant particles when ability is ready
• Sound effects (Enderman teleport, bell, amethyst chime)
• Action bar + chat feedback on activation
• Full server-side synced effects (no desync issues)

Cooldown System

After activation, Time Warp enters a cooldown phase:

• Standard cooldown: 5 minutes
• Visual boss bar countdown (v2+)
• Clear start/end messages

Extra Features

Scarlet Equipment (v2+)

• New weapon: Scarlet Blade (13 damage, 1.0 attack speed)
• Full Scarlet armor set bonus abilities
• Synergy effects with Time Warp rewind (buffed regeneration, resistance, absorption, etc.)

Area Ability (Z Key) 

• Includes visual particle ring and sound feedback.
• 30s cooldown (server-side enforced).

Currently temporarily disabled due to a known bug. It will be re-enabled in a future update.

Recall Ability (J Key)

• Teleports player to spawn / bed / respawn anchor
• Requires full armor + Space enchant requirement
• Shared balancing rules with Time Warp system

Configuration & Compatibility

• Fully server-compatible (uses ServerPlayer / ServerLevel systems)
• Works in singleplayer and multiplayer
• Highly configurable (cooldowns, XP cost, rewind duration, drop radius, etc.)
• No external dependencies (except required libraries in latest versions like PlayerAnimator if used)

Possible incompatibility with mods that heavily modify death mechanics (e.g. grave systems, keep inventory).
