❤️ HeartZ – Lifesteal SMP Plugin

HeartZ turns your server into a Lifesteal-style SMP: kill players to steal their hearts, die and lose hearts, hit 0 hearts and you’re eliminated.

• ⚔️ Kill = Heart – every player kill gives you configurable hearts
• 💔 Death = Heart loss – lose hearts every time you die
• ☠️ 0 Hearts = Elimination – eliminated players can’t join until an admin revives them
• 💉 Heart Items – if you’re at max hearts, kills drop Heart items (red dye)
• 🩹 Right-click Hearts – consume Heart items to gain hearts back
• 💳 /withdrawhearts – convert your hearts into Heart items (you can’t withdraw down to 0, no self-elim abusing)
• 🛠 Admin control – /heartz give/set/revive/get/reload to manage players’ hearts easily
• ⚙️ Fully configurable – default hearts, max hearts, hearts per kill, loss on death, messages & item names all in config.yml
• 🧨 Dupe-safe hearts – Heart items are tagged via PersistentDataContainer, normal red dye doesn’t work
