About this project

What does Keep Inventory Orbs add?

Keep Inventory Orbs

A fully server-side approach to the gravestone concept introducing 'orbs' to store your inventory upon death.

Upon death:

  • An Orb will spawn that will keep your inventory safe. [Incompatible with Backpack mods]
  • A compass to help you locate your last orb will be given to you. [Customizable]

Recovering Inventory:

  • When an Orb is broken, it will attempt to restore its inventory only to its owner.

    If the Orb's owner is not nearby (within 6 blocks), nothing will happen and the orb will not break.

    Orb Stealing is [OFF] by default. To steal an Orb that is not yours, an Admin needs to enable it in the Menu [see below]

  • Orbs will re-equip your armor and items exactly into the slot they were.

    If the slot is occupied by something else, the item will drop in the player's position.

Orb behavior:

  • Orbs will always spawn on the player's death position
  • Orbs will spawn in the world's minimum height if the player dies in the void
  • Orbs will never despawn.
  • Orbs have gravity and will fall if they have no support.
  • Orbs will move upwards if they are inside of a block.
  • Orbs cannot be moved by pistons

Server-side advantages

If you are a server owner or admin, installing this datapack/mod into the server makes it work for everyone!

There is no need to install it on the client side!
