Scars
Scars is a hardcore Minecraft mod that makes every death matter. It introduces a progressive trauma system where your maximum health decreases with each death, forcing you to play more carefully.
About this Mod
Stop dying without consequences. With Scars, every mistake leaves a mark on your health bar.
✨ Key Features:
Trauma System: Each death reduces your maximum health (default: -2 hearts).
Difficulty Limits: You won't get stuck at zero! Minimum health caps depend on difficulty (0.5 to 1.5 hearts) and are fully customizable.
Dynamic Recovery: Your "scars" heal over time. Max health slowly returns to normal. Recovery speed scales with game difficulty.
Healing Sleep: A good rest is the best medicine. Sleeping through the night restores a portion of your maximum HP.
Visual Effects: Red "blood" particles appear around wounded players. The effect intensifies as your health gets lower.

Server lagging with Scars – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Scars consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
