DeathLog
by glisco
Players who die often can look back through DeathLog, which keeps a record of each death with coordinates, dimension and inventory contents.
What it does
DeathLog runs on the client and logs deaths in every world and server a player joins. Each entry stores metadata such as coordinates, the dimension, the world or server name and the full inventory at the moment of death. Since version 0.2.0 the mod can also run on a server and record every player's deaths on that server, and it includes a built-in way to restore a death snapshot.
The mod requires oωo (owo-lib) to run. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so a client or a server can install it alone. Managing the server's database is noticeably simpler when a client with DeathLog is connected. Builds exist for Fabric and Quilt across 22 release versions, 1.16.2 – 1.21.3, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Death messages
Each death is written to a log with the cause and the time it happened, so earlier deaths can be checked later.
Item names
Lost items are listed by name in the log, showing what was on the character at death.
Coordinates and world names
Entries record where the death happened and which world or server it was, including the dimension.
Item recovery
In creative mode, clicking a lost item with the mouse wheel recovers it. Without creative mode, the mod copies a matching /give command instead.

What the author says
DeathLog tracks your deaths in all worlds and servers. It does this completely client-side and records important metadata like coordinates, dimension and even your entire inventory. Since version 0.2.0 onward, DeathLog can also operate server-side and track all deaths of all players on that server, with native…
