Hollow Vessel

by kiwiKcz

Hollow Vessel changes what happens to a player's belongings on death, so a fallen character can recover items and experience afterwards.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.21.9 – 26.1

What it does

When a player dies, the items and experience they lose stay in the world at the place of death, where the player can pick them up again. The mod is server-side, so the server must run it, while players can join without installing anything. Builds are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, across four release versions, 1.21.9 – 26.1, under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Remains keep items

    Items a player drops on death are kept at the spot where the character fell.

  2. Remains keep experience

    Experience lost at death is kept with the remains and can be collected again.

  3. Recovering remains

    A player returns to the remains to take back the items and XP they lost.

Questions

Does Hollow Vessel need to be installed on the client?

No. The server must run the mod, but players may add it as well, and joining a server that runs it does not require the mod.

Which loaders does Hollow Vessel support?

Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 26.1, and a data pack option is also available.
