Default Grave look

Commands (and permissions):

  • /graves - Main command, shows list of player's graves (universal_graves.list, available by default)
  • /graves player <player> - Opens gui with list of selected player's graves (universal_graves.list_others)
  • /graves modify <player> - Opens gui with list of executor's graves with ability to modify them (universal_graves.modify)
  • /graves reload - Reloads configuration and styles (requires universal_graves.reload)

Additionally, by having universal_graves.teleport permission, you can teleport to any grave.

Configuration:

You can find main config file in ./config/universal-graves/config.json.
Formatting uses Simplified Text for which docs you can find here.
Additionally, every message type has few own local variables, which you type as ${variable}.
Most grave specific messages support these variables: player, protection_time, break_time, xp,
item_count, position, world, death_cause, minecraft_day, creation_date, since_creation,
id.

There are few other data types:

  • {/* PREDICATE */} - Uses predicate format, see here for all supported ones.
  • {/* COST */} - Format for specifying cost.
    {
      // Type of cost. Supports, "free", "creative", "item" and "level"
      "type": "",
      // Only used for "item", describes Item Stack
      "input": {/* ITEMSTACK */},
      // Amount of cost.
      "count": 0
    }
    
  • {/* ITEMSTACK */} - represents an item.

Grave models

Todo: Finish this section.

Grave models are stored in config/universal-graves/models/. By default, there should be example.json file, which is a copy of default style.
To override default grave style, copy that file and rename it to default.json or other name specified in config and define its style.
You can also use different name and alternatives, to make random/unique models.
