Just in case there weren’t enough grave mods, here’s my take!<\/p>\n

With this datapack, when you die, rather than dropping all over the ground, your items will be safely stored in a barrel until you pick them up. Unlike other grave mods, some items (specified by the item tag “serious_deaths:keep_on_death”) will be kept with the player – by default this is all equipment like swords, tools and armour. Items can then be reclaimed by right clicking the barrel.<\/p>\n

The goal of this datapack was to make dying less punishing, and for me as a fun introduction to survival-friendly datapacking. It’s packaged as a datapack for minimal effort to install (and because it’s the only medium I know :p ).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
