Life Steal
Life Steal FR is a simple datapack configurable aiming to add life steal behaviours from the original Lifesteal SMP:
https://lifesteal.fandom.com/wiki/Season_1
This datapack adds texture for the revive beacon and use 1.21 food/consumable components for interactions with the system (eating a heart, consuming a renamed revive beacon)
This datapack is and will 🔥 ALWAYS 🔥 be updated to support the latest Minecraft versions!
I continuously maintain compatibility with new releases, ensuring you can enjoy Life Steal mechanics on the newest Minecraft updates without waiting, even on snapshots.

⚙️ Configuration
Players can withdraw hearts by typing /trigger life_steal.withdraw.
Default settings:
- 🔄 Revived players respawn with 4 hearts
- ⬆️ Maximum heart limit is set to 20 hearts
- ⬇️ Minimum heart limit is set to 0 hearts
- 💀 Players lose a heart upon death (whether killed by another player or from natural causes)
- ➗ Half hearts mode is disabled (hearts are tracked in whole numbers)
- 🚫 Players are banned when falling below the minimum heart limit
These settings can be customized using the following commands (requires operator permissions):
- ⬆️
scoreboard players set MAX_HEARTS life_steal.data 20(Maximum of 20 hearts) - ⬇️
scoreboard players set MIN_HEARTS life_steal.data 1(Minimum number of hearts a player can have, default is 1) - 🔄
scoreboard players set REVIVED_HEARTS life_steal.data 4(Amount of hearts to respawn with when revived) - 💀
scoreboard players set NATURAL_DEATH_HEART_DROP life_steal.data 1(1 = drop a heart when dying to non player, 0 = disable that) - ➗
scoreboard players set USE_HALF_HEARTS life_steal.data 1(1 = enable half hearts mode, 0 = disable - tracks hearts in 0.5 increments instead of whole numbers) - 🚫
scoreboard players set BAN_BELOW_MIN_HEARTS life_steal.data 1(1 = ban player when falling below minimum hearts, 0 = just prevent them from going lower)
You can obtain the items using these commands:
/function life_steal:_give_all(gives all items from the datapack)/loot give @s loot life_steal:i/heart(gives a heart)/loot give @s loot life_steal:i/revive_beacon(gives a revive beacon)
⚠️ Administration
As datapack don't have /ban permissions by default, you should edit your server.properties file and set the line function-permission-level to 3
If you want to manually revive a player, you can use the following command: 🔨
function life_steal:player/revive {player:"Stoupy51"}
(replace Stoupy51 with the player name you want to revive)
