Deathlink
by The_Goat_
Deathlink lets players who die return to the exact spot of their last breath, with their items, through a teleport tied to the death point.
What it does
On death, the mod records the position where the player fell. The player can then teleport straight back to that spot instead of walking the distance, which removes long searches for dropped items. Retrieval is quick, so lost loot comes back without a trek across the map.
A soulport stone is given to the player upon respawning. Its wait before use can be changed in the Deathlink config file, where the delay is set as a number of seconds, with 5 as the default. A separate value controls whether a player receives the Soulport Stone upon respawning, and setting it to 0 turns that off.
Deathlink is a Forge mod for 1.16 – 1.20.2, with Forge files for 17 release versions and 1.2 for 1.20.2 as the latest. The server and every player need the mod installed. The code is under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and the mod is not open source.
