Spill N' Drop

Drop your items when you get hurt — literally.

SpillNDrop is a lightweight Minecraft plugin that makes taking damage feel more impactful. When a player falls, gets rammed by a goat, or gets hit by a Warden's sonic boom, there's a chance their items spill out of their inventory — or just their held item, if you prefer a subtler approach.

Presentation

Features

• Inventory drop — on damage, random items from the player's entire inventory may scatter onto the ground
• Held item drop — alternatively, only the item in the player's main hand drops
• Water spill — water buckets empty and place water at the player's feet instead of dropping as an item
• Potion smash — potions get thrown and shatter on impact instead of dropping as an item
• Configurable drop chance — set a flat percentage (20%) or a damage-scaled multiplier (6.0 × damage dealt)
• Per-cause control — configure fall damage, sonic boom, and goat attacks independently
• Scatter physics — dropped items fly outward with configurable force
• Pickup delay — dropped items can't be immediately picked back up
• Multi-language support — ships with English and Polish, easily extendable

Damage causes

Cause	Config key	Default chance
Fall damage	FALL	6.0 × damage

• drop-held-item — drops only the item held in the main hand
• spill-water — spills water buckets instead of dropping them
