RIP
by FunkyToc
RIP changes what happens when a player dies: the soul of the dead player is left at the death location, and recovering it returns lost hearts.
What it does
When a player dies, a soul spawns at the location of death and stores the player's items. Picking up a soul gives back one max heart, while each death removes one. Souls of other players can be recovered as well, and a recovered soul of a friend grants a short regeneration effect. Death positions are displayed, and a soul also protects nearby items within a 16-block range.
The mod is installed on the server, so the server needs it and players may add it for the client side features. Its files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, covering 1.15 – 1.21.11 with 38 release versions, and the latest file is 1.6.1+mod for 1.21.11. It also ships as a data pack for server platforms. The license is Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0, so the code is not open source. Issue tracker and wiki links are published.
