HardcoreLivesPlugin

A plugin that allows you to give players limited lives on a survival server. Simply drop the jar into your plugins folder and you're ready to go.

Note: The server must not actually be in hardcore mode for the plugin to work. Hardcore will ban players on death regardless of plugins. Please ensure hardcore=false in your server.properties.

Note (2): This plugin was built on top of Spigot and tested with PaperSpigot. Unofficial forks of Spigot are NOT supported and you will be asked to reproduce your issue on one of these official server distributions if you are seeking support.

Other info:

• Opped players will not be forced into spectator mode even if they have zero lives. This is due to the fact that checking lives checks the hardcorelives.bypass permission, which ops always have.
• Resetting or manually overriding a player's lives does not change their gamemode back. Be sure to /gamemode survival
