What it does

Items that despawn on the ground are saved into a virtual inventory instead of being lost. The stored items are kept globally on the server and can be opened with the despawneditems command. Stored items can be taken out but cannot be placed back in. Gather Despawned Items is server-side only, so players join without installing it. Files exist for Fabric only, for 1.21.10, 1.21.11 and 26.1.2, with 1.0.2 for 26.1.2 as the latest file, under All rights reserved, which is not open source.

Key features

  1. Virtual item storage

    Items that despawn are collected into a virtual inventory, so non-renewable resources such as flint seeds are not wasted.

  2. Global shared inventory

    The collected inventory is available server-wide and is opened with the despawneditems command.

  3. Withdraw only

    Items can be taken out of the stored inventory, but players cannot place items into it.
