XpClearer
by Slackow
XpClearer stops players from losing experience points on death, and it is meant for servers that run keepInventory.
What it does
When keepInventory is enabled, the game still drops experience on death. XpClearer removes that drop, so a player who dies keeps the points as well as the items. The mod is a server-side change, so the server must run it while players may add it on their own clients. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 1.13 – 26.2.
Key features
Clears death experience
Experience points are not dropped when a player dies, even though the keepInventory rule is turned on.
Works with keepInventory
The effect is designed around keepInventory, so death keeps both the inventory and the experience.
Datapack option
A datapack build is also published for servers that prefer not to install a mod loader.
