SurvivalMethod

A Minecraft (Paper) plugin that introduces realistic survival mechanics: a stamina system and a thirst system.
Both systems are highly configurable and can be enabled or disabled independently.
This plugin does not require any additional resource packs.

Features
Stamina System
• Stamina Consumption: Sprinting consumes stamina, which is displayed on the experience bar.
• Exhaustion: When stamina runs out, your movement speed is reduced, and you cannot jump.
• Regeneration: Stamina regenerates automatically when you are not sprinting. The regeneration rate increases the longer you rest.
• Hunger Penalty: Stamina consumption increases as your hunger level drops.

Thirst System
• Thirst Gauge: Your thirst level is displayed using the vanilla oxygen bar. It decreases over time.
• Dehydration: When your thirst gauge is empty, you will start taking damage after a short delay.
• Rehydration: You can restore your thirst by drinking water bottles, stews, or soups.
• Diving: The thirst system is temporarily disabled while you are underwater, switching back to the default oxygen mechanics. Your thirst level will not decrease while diving.

High Configurability
• Toggle Systems: Enable or disable the stamina and thirst systems independently in config.yml.
• Full Control: Almost every value, from consumption rates to damage amounts, can be customized.
• Reset Options: Configure whether player stats should be reset on join or respawn, perfect for various server game modes.
