partialkeepinv

1.0.0 – Initial release

• Added partial keep inventory system for Paper 1.21.10:

  • Keeps all shulker boxes and all non-stackable items (tools, weapons, armour, elytra, etc.) on death.
  • All other items (blocks, food, stackables) still drop normally.

• Implemented slot-preserving restore:

  • Kept items are restored to their original inventory slots (hotbar + main inventory).
  • Off-hand item is restored when possible.
  • Armour is automatically re-equipped on respawn.

• Added death penalties to keep risk:

  • Player loses a random 1–5 XP levels on each death (no XP orbs dropped).
  • Each worn armour piece takes about 3% of its max durability damage per death (cannot break purely from the death penalty; at least 1 durability is left).

• No commands, no permissions, no external dependencies.
  Requires Paper 1.21.10+ and Java 21+, with /gamerule keepInventory false in worlds where you want this behaviour.
