Survival Strategy with Linked Bars

How Hunger and Health Connect

This plugin merges your hunger and health systems into one shared mechanic. When you take damage from any source—monsters, falls, or potions—you lose food points along with health. Eating food restores both bars simultaneously instead of just filling hunger.

The plugin removes saturation entirely, causing your food bar to deplete faster during activity. Starvation becomes a serious threat while exploring, since you can no longer rely on a buffer of hidden saturation points.

To survive effectively, prioritize finding food early and avoid unnecessary damage. Plan your routes to minimize fall damage and dangerous encounters, since every hit drains your limited food supply. Keep your hunger bar high at all times—it's now directly tied to your survival.
