NEW advanced Lifesteal plugin with all of your expected Lifesteal features

EzLifesteal
EzLifesteal is a configurable Lifesteal plugin for Paper, Spigot, Folia, and Bukkit servers. It ships with flexible heart rules, fast storage, hologram/scoreboard overlays, PlaceholderAPI hooks, and built-in smurf protection.

Highlights

Works with Paper 1.21.10 (Java 21) and stays friendly with Paper, Spigot, Folia, and Bukkit. The jar includes the `folia-supported` marker.
Saves player data asynchronously to YAML files or MySQL so leaderboards, profiles, and shutdown saves stay smooth.
Control hearts per world: set default, minimum, and maximum hearts, adjust kill rewards and death penalties, pick zero-heart behaviour, allow or block worlds, make per-world overrides, and let mobs drop hearts with per-entity permissions.
Optional kill streak rewards can hand out money, run console commands, give items, and broadcast wins when players hit streak milestones, with Vault support for economy payouts.
Built-in overlays show action-bar or boss-bar updates. `/lifesteal top` leaderboards, the hologram, and PlaceholderAPI placeholders share live standings anywhere.
`/lifesteal hologram place` drops a self-updating leaderboard that survives restarts and can be cleared with one command. The scoreboard wildcard (`lifesteal.scoreboard.*`) makes it easy to hand out place/remove access.
Season scheduling handles heart resets automatically. Use a timer or set start and end dates, repeat seasons if you want, and send reminder broadcasts. `/lifesteal season` shows the countdown.
Smurf detection watches for players farming the same target or rotating killers, keeps history GUIs ready, and only alerts trusted staff.
`admin.yml` lists staff by ops, permission nodes, UUIDs, or names, chooses if admins bypass heart gain or loss, and decides whether smurf alerts stay admin-only.
Translate player messages quickly with built-in English and Dutch files, and add your own flavour through `messages.yml` overrides.
`/lifesteal` staff commands make it easy to add, remove, reset, revive, or reset all hearts without touching storage files.

Storage & reliability

Storage tasks run on their own thread so slow disks or databases never freeze the main server.
YAML mode saves each player to `plugins/EzLifesteal/data/players/<uuid>.yml` and upgrades old `players.yml` data the first time it loads.
MySQL mode creates its table on startup (`uuid`/`hearts`) and uses `ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE` so repeat saves stay safe.
Use `/lifesteal reload` to refresh configuration, messages, admin rules, storage backends, overlays, and PlaceholderAPI hooks without restarting.

Season cadence & smurf defence

[IMG]

Set a season length with `length-days` or choose exact `start` and `end` times. Turn on `recurring` to loop the schedule automatically.
Send reminder broadcasts before resets and show the remaining time with `/lifesteal season`.
Smurf detection logs kills per killer and victim, watches for rotating killer rings, saves alert and kill history, and lets you exempt trusted players.
Give moderators `lifesteal.alert` and edit `smurf.yml` to tweak thresholds or exempt trusted UUIDs.

Requirements

Java 21 runtime (matches current Paper 1.21.10 requirements).
Paper, Spigot, Folia, or Bukkit 1.21.10 or newer.
Optional: PlaceholderAPI for placeholders, MySQL 8+ for database storage.
Optional: Vault plus an economy provider for kill streak currency rewards.

Quick start

Place the jar in your server's `plugins` folder and restart the server.
Choose `YAML` (default) or `MYSQL` storage in `storage.yml`. Set the default language in `config.yml`. Adjust heart and world rules in `lifesteal.yml` and tweak overlays or seasons in `features.yml`.
Review `admin.yml` to decide who counts as staff, whether they bypass heart gain or loss, and who receives smurf alerts.
Use `/lifesteal reload` after configuration changes and give your staff the permissions listed below.
Run `/lifesteal test <kill|death>` on a staging server to check kill and death flows before you go live.

Admin bypass & testing

Staff listed in `admin.yml` skip heart gains and losses when `bypass-heart-gain` and `bypass-heart-loss` stay enabled, so moderators can watch gameplay without losing progress.
Switch those values to `false` (or remove yourself from the admin list) before testing lifesteal flows, or kill/death simulations, duels, and streak rewards will skip admins.
Turn the bypass back on after testing so daily staff checks keep working without unwanted penalties.

Configuration presets

Casual SMP: Keeps fights exciting without scaring casual players. Raises the minimum hearts, gives one heart per kill, and disables zero-heart bans so everyone can keep playing.

Code (Text):

# lifesteal.yml
default-hearts: 12.0
min-hearts: 6.0
max-hearts: 30.0
hearts-per-kill: 1.0
hearts-lost-on-death: 1.0
ban-when-zero-hearts: false

# features.yml
action-bar:
enabled: true
season:
enabled: false
Competitive season: Built for organised leagues. Enables the season scheduler, lowers the max heart cap, and speeds up reminders as the reset gets closer.

Code (Text):

# lifesteal.yml
default-hearts: 10.0
min-hearts: 4.0
max-hearts: 24.0
hearts-per-kill: 1.0
hearts-lost-on-death: 1.0
ban-when-zero-hearts: true

# features.yml
season:
enabled: true
length-days: 14
reminder-minutes: [1440, 60, 15, 5, 1]
broadcast-message: "&eSeason reset! Hearts are refreshed for everyone."
Hardcore grind: Every fight is dangerous. Players lose two hearts on death, gain half a heart on kills, and get banned at zero hearts, so teams must play carefully.

Code (Text):

# lifesteal.yml
default-hearts: 8.0
min-hearts: 1.0
max-hearts: 16.0
hearts-per-kill: 0.5
hearts-lost-on-death: 2.0
ban-when-zero-hearts: true
world-overrides:
world_nether:
hearts-per-kill: 0.25
hearts-lost-on-death: 3.0

# features.yml
season:
enabled: false

PlaceholderAPI

Install PlaceholderAPI alongside EzLifesteal. The expansion registers automatically and caches lookups briefly to stay responsive.
Player-centric placeholders: %ezlifesteal_hearts% / %ezlifesteal_current_hearts% (stored hearts), %ezlifesteal_default_hearts%, %ezlifesteal_min_hearts%, and %ezlifesteal_max_hearts%.
Leaderboard placeholders: %ezlifesteal_top_<position>_hearts%, %ezlifesteal_top_<position>_current_hearts%, %ezlifesteal_top_<position>_name%, and %ezlifesteal_top_<position>_uuid%.

Under the hood

Hearts stay saved across restarts, reloads, and world switches, and reapply instantly on join, quit, PvP, or admin tweaks.
Health scaling can be toggled separately from heart totals so you can keep the vanilla HUD or use scaled hearts.
Background storage work and scheduled overlay updates keep the main thread responsive even during big migrations or resets.
Mob rewards support fractional payouts, per-entity permissions, and world allow/deny lists so you can shape lifesteal progress everywhere.
