About this Mod

Stop using death as a food source.

In vanilla Minecraft, dying is an easy way to reset your hunger bar. Persistent Hunger fixes this loop. Now, your hunger and saturation levels persist across death, forcing you to manage your food resources even after respawning.

Key Features:

Can set a minimum hunger value on respawn, so that players never respawn with less hunger than the specified amount
Can set a maximum hunger value on respawn, so that players never respawn with more hunger than the specified amount
Can set a minimum saturation value on respawn, so that players never respawn with less saturation than the specified amount
Can set a maximum saturation value on respawn, so that players never respawn with more saturation than the specified amount
