I am excited to announce the first public release of VitalVials, a unique Minecraft plugin for Spigot/Paper servers (1.21.x).

VitalVials introduces a new gameplay mechanic where players can trade their health for powerful effects, creating a balanced risk–reward system. With full customization options, server owners can fine-tune costs, mechanics, and player experiences to fit their server’s style.

✨ Features

• Health-Based Economy: Players exchange their max health or health points for powerful effects.
• Fully Configurable: Customize every aspect of effects, costs, cooldowns, and mechanics via config.yml, effects.yml, and activation.yml.
• Dynamic Scoreboard: Real-time tracking of active effects and durations, customizable per player.
• Player-Specific Settings: Players can toggle and personalize their scoreboard.
• Cooldown System: Prevents effect spamming with per-effect cooldowns.
• Refund System: Refund effects with configurable percentages for added balance.

🛠 Installation

1. Download the VitalVials.jar from this release.
2. Place it into your server’s plugins/ folder.
3. Restart the server to generate configuration files.
4. Adjust settings in config.yml, effects.yml, and activation.yml.
5. Use /vv reload to apply changes without restarting.
