Carcass

by mrsterner

Carcass leaves a body behind when a player dies, holding the items that were carried at the time of death.

What it does

When a player dies, a carcass spawns at the death point and stores the player's items, so they can be recovered by returning to the body. Over time the carcass stops despawning and turns into a skeleton after an hour, a change that is purely cosmetic. The mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it, and it requires Fabric API and Porting Lib. Builds are published for Fabric and Quilt for 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, and the code is licensed as All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Body on death

    A carcass appears where the player died and holds the inventory, offering a way to retrieve the items.

  2. Delayed despawn

    The carcass stays in place for a chosen amount of time before it despawns, set through the config.

  3. Config options

    Several settings let server owners adjust access to the carcass and the despawn timing.
