Saro´s Player Ragdoll
by Sarocesch
Players who take lethal damage in Saro´s Player Ragdoll collapse into a simulated ragdoll rather than dropping dead, and another player can revive them with a First Aid Kit.
What it does
When a player takes lethal damage, the death becomes a physics-driven ragdoll, with knockback carried in the direction of the hit. The ragdoll collides with terrain and blocks, so bodies slide down stairs, settle on slabs and pile up realistically. Mining a block under a ragdoll makes it fall, and an explosion can fling a body away.
Other players can grab a ragdoll and lift it, or hold the default V key to grab a limb and drag the body around. Controls can be rebound. A clean death screen lets the player revive or respawn, and the respawn timer is configurable. When a player has too few hearts, the mod places a First Aid Kit automatically, and the ragdoll mode restricts some movement actions.
The mod runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge and needs both the server and every player to have it installed. Builds cover 1.12.2 – 26.3, with the 1.12.2 build using the DynamX Mod for its physics and the 1.20.1 build shipping its own Bullet physics engine and UI. The 1.20.1 build requires ACsGuis. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

What the author says
Saros Player Ragdoll turns death into a real, physics-driven ragdoll moment. When a player takes lethal damage they collapse into a fully simulated ragdoll instead of just dropping dead — they flop, tumble, slide down stairs and pile up realistically. From 1.20.1 the mod is fully standalone — it ships with its own…
