Saro´s Player Ragdoll

Saros Player Ragdoll turns death into a real, physics-driven ragdoll moment. When a player takes lethal damage they collapse into a fully simulated ragdoll instead of just dropping dead — they flop, tumble, slide down stairs and pile up realistically.

From 1.20.1 the mod is fully standalone — it ships with its own Bullet physics engine and its own UI, so no DynamX and no ACsGuis are required. (Older 1.12.2 builds use the DynamX mod for physics.)

• Real ragdoll physics 🧍

  • On lethal damage you become a fully simulated ragdoll — with knockback coming from the direction you were hit.
  • Ragdolls collide with the terrain, with blocks, and with players, and they settle naturally on stairs, slabs and slopes.
  • Mine the block underneath a ragdoll and it falls; blow it up and it gets flung away (it is not deleted by explosions).

• Grab & lift ✋

  • Hold a key (default V) and look at a ragdoll to grab a limb and drag it around — the rest of the body follows. Rebindable in the controls.

• Revive & respawn ❤️

  • A clean, modern death screen lets you revive or respawn (with a configurable timer).
  • Players can also be revived by right-clicking them while holding the First-Aid Kit.

• Two physics feels ⚙️

  • smooth (calm, settles naturally) or floppy (raw and loose) — switch it in the config.

• Commands 💻

  • /saros_spawn_ragdoll [player] — drop a ragdoll showing that player's skin at your location.
  • /saros_spawn_ragdoll death [player] — put a player into the (invisible) ragdoll/death state.
  • /saros_spawn_ragdoll kill — remove all ragdolls.
  • /revive [player] — heal and restore a player.
  • /respawn [player] — drop items (per config) and respawn.
  • /instantragdoll <player|all> <on|off> — toggle ragdoll-on-hit.
