MoreGraves

Keep death fair, readable, and easy to recover.

MoreGraves creates a grave when a player dies and safely stores their items, armor, offhand, and part of their XP. The grave can show a hologram, spawn particles, give the player a compass to the grave, and restore everything back to the exact inventory slots with Shift + Right Click.

Default Gameplay Flow

When someone dies, the grave appears in a safe spot near the death location. The player respawns, gets a grave compass, and can travel back to the grave. A normal right click lets them inspect the contents first, and Shift + Right Click restores the stored gear exactly where it used to be.

Notes

• The default language is English
• Grave lifetime is configurable
• The plugin supports multiple visual grave-head styles
• Active graves can use particles for better visibility
