What it does

When a player dies, the mod drops a paper item at the death spot. The paper carries the death coordinates, the dimension the player died in, the time of day and the reason for the death, along with the name of the player who died. The information is kept on the item, so it can be read after the player has respawned and moved on.

Derinfo runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. It is published for NeoForge only, with a single build, 1.0.0 for 1.21.1, released on 2026-08-11. The first build appeared on 2026-08-10. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Death information paper

    A paper item appears where the player died, so the details can be picked up from the ground.

  2. Coordinates on death

    The paper lists the exact coordinates of the death, which helps players return to a lost body or recover items.

  3. Dimension and time

    The record notes which dimension the death happened in and the time of day it occurred.

  4. Cause and victim

    The paper gives the reason for the death and the name of the player who died.
