Usage

When a player would die, Hardcore Revival puts them into a K.O. state instead. A rescue timer starts, and another player has the chance to reach them and help them back up before it runs out.

By default, the timer is 120 seconds. If it reaches zero, the knocked-out player dies.

Rescuing a Player

Stand near the knocked-out player and look at them. When the rescue prompt appears on screen, hold your normal Use key until the rescue finishes.

Being Knocked Out

While knocked out, you cannot move, heal, or use most normal interactions. Your screen shows a red overlay, a rescue timer, and a K.O. message.

Press your inventory key to open the K.O. screen. If accepting fate is enabled, the screen includes an "Accept your Fate" button after a short delay. Pressing it will skip the timer and instantly kill you. Press Escape to close the screen and look around while waiting.

Instant Death

Some deaths can still bypass the K.O. state. Lava kills instantly by default, and damage tagged with hardcorerevival:bypasses_knockout also skips the rescue timer.

The configuration can also disable knockouts in singleplayer, when only one player is online on a multiplayer server, or outside hardcore worlds.
