Persistent Pearls
by enjarai
Persistent Pearls stops thrown Ender Pearls from despawning when their owner dies, keeping them usable in stasis chambers.
What it does
Normally a thrown Ender Pearl deletes itself once the player who threw it dies. The mod disables that despawn behaviour with a single mixin, so a pearl stays in the world after its owner is gone. A stasis chamber can then hold a thrown pearl in place, and the pearl can be used later for instant teleportation to that spot. The change is controlled by the persistentPearls gamerule, which is enabled by default.
Key features
Pearls that persist
Thrown Ender Pearls remain in the world after their owner dies instead of being removed.
Stasis chamber support
A pearl can be held in a loaded chunk, making stasis chambers practical for keeping a pearl at one spot.
Gamerule control
The persistentPearls gamerule turns the behaviour on or off, and it is enabled by default.

What the author says
This is a simple one-mixin mod to disable unnecessary Ender Pearl despawn behaviour. If you weren't aware, thrown Ender Pearls normally delete themselves the moment the player who threw them dies, provided the pearl is in a loaded chunk. This can be problematic when trying to make use of Ender Pearl stasis chambers…
