About this project
What does Em's Better Gravestones add?
Em's Better Gravestones is a simple, lightweight gravestone mod that allows mod developers to allow certain items to always drop instead of being stored in the gravestone. This is very useful for creating events or minigames where players should keep all but one or a few items.
Features
- Creates a gravestone on death.
- Puts gravestone coords in player chat.
- Robust backup system that allows items to be retrieved with /bettergravestones retrieve <player> <timestamp>
- If the player died in a block, the gravestone will spawn on the nearest available block, or if liquid, it will replace the liquid.
- In-depth config to control if other players can claim a grave, if gravestones spawn when dying to the void, if xp should be saved, and many other things.
For Mods and Modpacks
This mod may be used in any modpack or as a dependency for any mod as long as it is distributed via CurseForge or Modrinth and links to the official project page. Redistribution of the jar file is not permitted.
