PermaDeath

PermaDeath represents an updated version of the DeathBan mod for NeoForged 1.21.x, which is no longer maintained by the original developer.

This is a server-side modification for Minecraft designed to create a hardcore-like experience on survival servers. The main function is to assign configurable ban duration to players after their death.

An important advantage of the mod is that it only needs to be installed on the NeoForged server. This means that players with completely vanilla clients can also join a server with PermaDeath installed (provided the server only uses server-side mods).

Configuration Settings

The ban duration can be changed in the file config/permadeath-server.toml. The server does not require a restart for changes to take effect, however existing bans will not be updated when settings are modified.

#Ban duration in weeks
Weeks = 0
#Ban duration in days
Days = 0
#Ban duration in hours
Hours = 0
#Ban duration in minutes
Minutes = 0

Administrator Commands

Server operators can change the ban expiration time using special commands:

/pd add <Player> <days>
/pd sub <Player> <days>

The first command increases the ban duration, the second one decreases it.

Gameplay Experience

Players see an informational message when logging into the server.

After death, a ban notification screen appears.

When attempting to reconnect, a corresponding notification is displayed.
