Morale Boost
A cooperative team morale system for Minecraft servers
This mod is used for RP with admins as gamemasters. Use function morale:add commands to give morale.
Overview
Morale Boost adds a shared Team Morale score that rises and falls based on what your team does together. Sleep through the night, and morale climbs. Watch a teammate die, and the whole team feels it. Morale directly affects every player's movement speed and attack speed, and going beyond the cap unlocks a buff state that makes the whole team faster and hit harder.
Designed for cooperative survival and medieval/roleplay servers.
Features
- Shared morale score — one value for the whole team, ranging from
0to150 - Death penalty — every death costs the team

- Debug command — built-in debug function for server admins

Morale Changes at a Glance
| Event | Morale Change |
|---|---|
| Player death | −5 |
| Player sleeps in bed | +1 |
| Overflow drain (above 100) | −1 per minute |
The overflow drain only ticks while morale is above 100. Once it returns to 100 or below, the timer resets.
Commands
All commands require operator permissions (/op).

Installation
- Download
Morale_Boost_release.zip - Place the
.zipfile into your world'sdatapacksfolder:<world_folder>/datapacks/ - In-game or in the server console, run:
The pack initializes automatically on load. Morale starts at/reload100if no previous value exists.
Compatibility
| Version | Status |
|---|---|
| Minecraft 26.2 (pack format 107) | ✅ Supported |
| Minecraft 1.21.11-1.21.5 | Maybe Supported? |
| Minecraft 1.20.x and below | ❌ Not supported |
This datapack uses the
attribute modifier addcommand syntax introduced in 1.21. It will not function correctly on older versions.
Notes for Server Owners
- The death detection system works by comparing a running total of all player deaths each tick.
- The
on_joinadvancement usesminecraft:tickas its trigger, which fires once on a player's first tick. It is automatically revoked after granting, so it re-fires correctly if a player re-joins. - There is no GUI or boss bar — morale feedback is delivered through chat messages and the
/function morale:statuscommand.
