This plugin keep inventory during lag from either low tps or high ping for specific player when they die.<\/p>\n
So for example if set tps is 15 in config and server tps was lagging and low on 12tps and a player dies then their inventory is kept and will not drop.<\/p>\n
Same thing for the ping, however keep in mind players may abuse this like using programs to raise their ping to escape combat logging.<\/p>\n
As this plugin will mostly IGNORE combat drop and will keep it regardless.
\nAnd will mostly try to ignore any custom inventory plugins and will keep regardless when conditions met.<\/p>\n
this was tested on combatlogx and indeed it kept player’s inventory when player’s ping is high when they logged out
\nso disable this option if your worried about this.<\/p>\n
There is also a grace period after lag “can be configured” this mostly to prevent players dying after lag ends as because players die after lag.<\/p>\n
This plugin is recommended as it will reduce frustrations of players especially when your sever lags even if you enabled only TPS inventory protection.<\/p>\n
Notes\/ Keep in mind.
\n1 Works from 1.16 up to latest version tested 1.21.4, 1.21.1, 1.18.2, 1.17, 1.16<\/p>\n
2 The plugin is generally lightweight than other plugins like combat plugins<\/p>\n
3 However the more people in server die the more resources it will take, here are some estimations calculations of resources<\/p>\n
4 the plugin works below 1.16 but not properly and maybe buggy (not recommended)<\/p>\n
Paper 1.20.4 server with 4GB RAM and a 4-core CPU as an example
\nPerformance vs Player Count
\nPlayers CPU Usage (Avg) Memory Usage Death Events\/Min Notes

\n50 1-2% 5-10MB 15-30 Minimal impact
\n100 2-3% 10-15MB 30-60 Starts showing in timings
\n200 4-5% 20-25MB 60-120 same thing as above, however will be noted in next versions for optimizations<\/p>\n
