Concise answers for players and server owners using this ServerBuddy utility.
Use /difficulty followed by peaceful, easy, normal or hard. On a server console, you can usually run the same command without the slash.
If you want the setting to survive restarts, set difficulty in server.properties too. The live command changes the running world immediately.
No. Hard is a difficulty setting. Hardcore is a separate world mode with permanent death rules.
