Extra Hard Mode
Extra Hard Mode changes the game rules to create NEW, INTERESTING CHALLENGES for players who have mastered the core game. Unlike Mojang's "hard" mode or other plugins' "hardcore" modes which just punish you more for making mistakes without actually changing game mechanics, Extra Hard Mode delivers interesting new challenges for advanced players.

- You can enable specific features only for specific worlds, Check here
- Save yourself some time! Check "Troubleshooting and Common Questions" for the answer to your question.
- Here is a playlist of a few 1 minute clips showcasing some features
- If you have any questions feel free to ask, post bugs / feature suggestions in ticket section
Recommended Plugins
- Make tree logs and branches fall when chopped with GraviTree. Set "FallingLogsDamagePlayers" to true in its config for an extra challenge!
- For anti-grief, avoid plugins that disable explosions entirely, because that will undermine the cave-in mechanic and the new improved TNT.
- Avoid plugins which allow players to teleport themselves out of danger when they're in combat or lost. Especially avoid plugins which add commands like /home, /back, and /tpa, since they will undermine the difficulty VERY much. Consider instead a teleportation plugin like Population Density, which allows players to teleport only between teleportation posts it places on the surface every 400 blocks.
- You might want to look into balancing villagers. Having diamond gear tradable for very easily farmable materials will undermine the difficulty. I use Rebalance Villagers to make the trades harder.
Metrics
This plugin utilizes Hidendra's plugin metrics system, which means that the following information is collected and sent to mcstats.org:
- A unique identifier
- The server's version of Java
- Whether the server is in offline or online mode
- The plugin's version
- The server's version
- The OS version/name and architecture
- The core count for the CPU
- The number of players online
- The Metrics version
- Config options that are activated, allowing me to see what people use (or don't)
You can disable the stat collection via /plugins/PluginMetrics/config.yml if you wish. If you want to see the stats, you can go here

That happens when a player quits while they have an ExtraHardMode message in the scoreboard.

Posted Jan 25, 2016I understand that you are busy and there are other things on your mind and you have said that the development of EHM is not going forward right now.
But you really need to:
1) put in some hours of serious bug fixing work or 2) find someone to help with the bug fixing.
Because, while EHM is still working - sort of - one can really start to feel the state of disrepair that it's currently in. That's not nice. EHM is one of the great ones and it really could benefit from some bug fixing and basic maintenance love.
So, please, take a few minutes of your time and announce that you want help with EHM and start going through the plugin maintainer applications or use some more time fixing the bugs.
Thank you.

Posted Dec 22, 2015Ended up putting up a server running this mod, increased the difficulty in a few areas also since it seemed a bit easy.
I doubt anyone would be able to add the server to the list of servers running ehm though. I'll just leave it here if someone wants to:

Did you ever figure out a way around this? I'm having the same issue. TNT and creeper damage isn't hurting players or mobs in any world on my server, not even the ones specifically using EHM.

Posted Nov 25, 2015I am wanting to disable the falling of Dirt and Grass. When I disable this. It also disables softening of the stone around ore.
I would like to keep the cobblestones falling when soften by ore. However, I don't want the dirt and grass to fall.
Is this possible?

Posted Nov 24, 2015I created this account just for thanked you for your hard work on this plugin, me and my friend were really busy playing Minecraft even with some mods, it's still pratically the same. Now we cannot play without this plugin anymore, it's our basic vanilla new gamestyle !

Well I don't play minecraft anymore. That was my main motivation to develop and add new things. People dont see how time consuming this plugin is. I need to test every feature in game and make it work correctly. It can take a whole afternoon just to fix one thing or a few afternoons to add something.
With some of the errors I don't even know what is causing them. And most of them would just take too much time to fix. Fe. I can't fix anything related to explosions till they add a method to create explosions with an entity. Things that have broken are usually huge complicated workarounds for things that the bukkit api didn't provide.
So the only thing I can do is to remove the broken parts. Because the bukkit API is dead, it was dead long before it got dmca'ed. I'm crossing my fingers for the sponge API and hope it will have the things that bukkit lacked.

Posted Oct 15, 2015Hi, I'm wondering if this plugin is still under development as I've reported errors multiple times (through comments here and also through the ticket link) and it still hasn't been addressed. My server basically depends upon this plugin. I'm willing to donate, but only when the bugs are fixed and I'm assured this is still going forward. If it isn't, could the author at least give us an update concerning its future?

Posted Oct 13, 2015I have EHM enabled in world2. everything works great.... its is not enabled in world1....somehow it is affecting explosions not damaging players... I disabled EHM and explosions damaged players in world1, re-enabled and explosions no longer damage players in world1. checked config in EHM. while doing this, I had all other plugins disabled.
In other words, EHM is stopping creeper explosions from damaging players even though its not enabled in world1.

Posted Oct 6, 2015Hey, big fan of the plugin; our server's been using about two thirds of it's function for a while now (can we still get on the list? ^.^').
I was wondering if you have any plans to up the difficulty with ocean monuments, I have a few ideas if you're at a loss for concepts. Either way, keep up the good work.
