FFDeathRules

FFDeathRules

Give death a little more fine print. Keep a favorite kit, trim the clutter, recover a fair share of XP, and decide who hears about your unfortunate lava encounter.

How it works

• Choose whether deaths keep the full inventory, just the hotbar, nothing, or follow the world's usual rules.
• Keep or discard selected items and item tags, with separate armor and offhand settings.
• Choose how much XP drops, survives respawn, or is lost. Recoverable XP can become bottles with an exact value.
• Customize death messages and their audience, or send players a private reminder of their death location.
• Apply different rules to permission groups, scoreboard teams and individual players. Defaults preserve vanilla behavior until you change them.

Curse of Vanishing takes priority when items would normally be lost. Curse of Binding stays on any equipment you retain.

Configuration

You can adjust:

• Inventory retention, item filters, durability penalties and pickup ownership
• XP loss, retention and bottle recovery
• Death-message text, audience, nearby range and private coordinates
• Permission, team and player overrides

Operators can use /deathrules to inspect and change rules immediately. Command changes save with the world and survive restarts. Click the Wiki link in the sidebar for configuration and command examples.

Mod compatibility

FFUtilities is bundled and needs no separate download. Team and permission mods can integrate through the modding API; there are no automatic third-party integrations. Mods that manage graves or replace death drops may need an integration to avoid overlapping rules. Extra accessory inventories are managed by their owning mods.

Version differences

FFDeathRules works the same on every supported version and loader.

For datapack makers

Add items to the keep-on-death and discard-on-death tags, or use your own item tags in filters. Tag changes apply after a datapack reload. Click the Wiki link in the sidebar and open the Datapacks page for details.

For mod developers

Supply live team or permission rules through partial rule providers, bridge permission nodes, or save persistent player and team overrides. Click the Wiki link in the sidebar for the API guide and examples.

What's with the FF prefix?

It stands for Fyxe's Features! It's a clean way to easily find all of my mods when changing configs or creating packs. Mods that are a part of the "FF" system are usually smaller and unintrusive.
