DeathPeek

"You died at 1240, 63, -380 in world_nether."

DeathPeek whispers every player their own death coordinates the moment they die — and optionally reminds them 4 minutes later that their items are about to despawn. Simple, private, lifesaving.

Features

• Death coordinates + world, sent only to the player who died
• Optional despawn reminder (default: 4 minutes after death — items vanish at ~5)
  • Automatically skipped when keepInventory is on or nothing was dropped
• /deathpeek — shows your last death point any time (same data the recovery compass uses)
• All messages configurable

Config

death-message: "&7You died at &f{x}, {y}, {z}&7 in &f{world}&7."

despawn-reminder:
  enabled: true
  minutes: 4
  message: "&cHurry! &7Your items at &f{x}, {y}, {z}&7 despawn in about a minute."

Install

Drop the jar in plugins/, restart. Works out of the box. Requires Paper 1.21.x / 26.x (matching jar).

Safe by design

DeathPeek never touches drops, inventories, or the death event itself — it only sends private messages. Remove it and nothing else changes. Only network activity: one startup update check (Modrinth public API) + anonymous bStats stats.
