🪦 Graves Lite: The Vanilla+ Death Solution

Graves Lite is a high-performance, minimalist datapack designed to protect your loot while keeping the "hardcore" spirit of Minecraft alive.

✨ Key Features

• 📍 Private Death Waypoints: The moment you perish, your exact coordinates are sent directly to your chat. No more guessing where that mountain was.
• ⏳ Despawn Protection: Your items won't vanish. The pack "freezes" the despawn timer for any items within a 4-block radius of your death. Take your time to gear up—your loot will be waiting.
• ✨ Soul Beacon: A subtle particle beam marks your remains. It’s visible through walls and terrain, guiding you back to the exact spot without being an eyesore.
• ⚡ Zero-Lag Architecture: Designed for servers. It uses optimized Interaction Markers rather than heavy armor stands or entities, ensuring your TPS stays at a perfect 20.
• 🧼 Self-Cleaning: Once you get within 1.5 blocks of your death site, the marker and particles vanish instantly. No "leftover" graves cluttering your world.

🚀 Installation & Compatibility

• Multiplayer Ready: Works perfectly on dedicated servers and LAN.

To Install Datapack:

1. Download the .zip file.
2. Drop it into your world’s datapacks folder.
3. Type /reload in-game.

To Install Mod:

1. Download the '.jar' file
2. Move it to mods folder in minecraft
3. Restart Your game

Note: Because this pack uses marker logic, it is incredibly lightweight and won't conflict with other world-gen or utility datapacks.

🛠️ How It Works

Unlike traditional grave mods that store items in a block or entity (which can occasionally "swallow" items or glitch), Graves Lite manages the Item Entities themselves:

1. On Death: A marker is summoned at your location.
2. The Freeze: Every tick, the marker resets the Age tag of nearby items to 0, preventing them from ever despawning.
3. The Recovery: When you return, the marker detects your presence, stops the freeze, and deletes itself. Your items are picked up naturally.
