🔁 PlaceholderAPI Support

Placeholder Description
%lifesteal_hearts% Shows the player’s current heart count. Returns an empty value when the player’s heart data is unavailable.
%lifesteal_hearts_left% Shows how many additional hearts the player can gain before reaching the configured maximum.
%lifesteal_max_hearts% Returns the configured maximum heart count.
%lifesteal_starting_hearts% Returns the configured starting heart count for new players.
%lifesteal_online_count% Displays the current number of online players.
%lifesteal_database_connected% Returns "true" or "false" depending on whether the configured database backend is connected.
%lifesteal_database_type% Displays the active database backend, such as "mysql" or "sqlite".
%lifesteal_language% Displays the currently active language code, such as "en", "de", or "es".
%lifesteal_prefix% Inserts the plugin’s configured and color-formatted message prefix.
%lifesteal_online% Returns "true" or "false" depending on whether the requested player is currently online.
%lifesteal_banned% Returns "true" or "false" depending on whether the player is Lifesteal-banned.
%lifesteal_ban_reason% Displays the player’s Lifesteal ban reason when available.
%lifesteal_revenge_active% Returns "yes" or "no" depending on whether the player currently has an active Revenge Thread.
%lifesteal_revenge_target% Displays the username of the player’s current Revenge Thread target. Returns an empty value when no target exists.
%lifesteal_revenge_time_left% Displays the remaining Revenge Thread duration in a readable format, such as "2m 14s".
%lifesteal_revenge_time_left_seconds% Returns the remaining Revenge Thread duration as a whole number of seconds.
%lifesteal_revenge_progress% Returns the Revenge Thread progress as a percentage from 0 to 100.
