Mortis
by Mrmrmrpizza
Mortis changes what happens to a player's items after death, through a configurable death system that runs on the server.
What it does
A server owner sets the death system in the mod's configuration, and the rules then control how items are handled once a player dies. A datapack carries the cosmetic and convenience side of the same behavior, and it is supplied with the mod. Mortis is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 1.20 – 26.1.2 under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. The server must run it, while players may leave it out.
Key features
Configurable death system
Item handling after death is set through the configuration, so the server decides how items are kept or moved.
Death count and location messages
Chat tells a player how many times they have died and where they last died.
Gamerule options
The mortis:gamerule command lists the available gamerules, and a specific rule can be set to false to exclude it.
