DarkDeath
DarkDeath is a server-side command mod that lets a player's character be killed on demand, which helps when potion effects leave a character stuck.
What it does
A command named darkdeath kills the character that runs it instantly, so a player stuck in a bad state, such as held in place by levitation or slowfall or caught on a particular block, can return to normal play. The author describes it as a simple way for admins to step in when a player cannot control their character. The command is the only action the mod provides.
The mod runs on the server only, so players join without installing anything, and it requires Fabric API on Fabric. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with builds for 1.20.1, 1.20.3, 1.20.4, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2. The latest files target 26.2 for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and 1.20.1 for Quilt. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
The author also created DarkRPG, a full RPG experience with quests and RPG gameplay, and offers it as part of a modpack. DarkDeath stands apart from that work, since it only handles the death command and adds no quests or progression. It can be used alongside DarkInventory to keep inventory on death.
