Description
Death Debrief
Know exactly what killed you.
You died. Again. But what actually happened? Was it the creeper, the fall, or that one skeleton you never saw? Death Debrief shows a clear, detailed report the moment you die: the real death message, a timeline of every hit from the last 10 seconds, damage before and after armor, and where your items are.

Features
The debrief screen
- Cause-of-death card with the real death message
- Player figure and armor exactly as you were at the moment of death
- Badges: coordinates, dimension, XP levels lost, item stacks dropped (or "No items")
- Circular item-despawn countdown, hidden when you have no items or keepInventory is on
- Damage timeline of the last 10 seconds, with icons per damage type
- Hit table: time, source, damage after / before armor, hearts left
- Buttons: Waypoint, Copy coords, Respawn, History, Close
- Open it from the button on the death screen, with key B, or with
/deathdebrief
Death history
- Saves your last 50 deaths per world / server to disk
- Browse with < > or open the History list
- Deaths whose items have already despawned are marked Expired

Death waypoint
- Built-in red beam and floating "☠ Death N m" label in the world
- HUD distance and direction arrow
- Set automatically on death; clears when you reach it or after 5 minutes
- Clear manually with
/deathdebrief waypoint clear

Minimap integration
- JourneyMap: a death waypoint is added automatically
- Xaero's Minimap: one click on the chat link opens Xaero's waypoint dialog, prefilled

Languages

FAQ
Does it work on servers? Yes, if the mod is installed on the server too.
Can I turn off the automatic waypoint? Yes, set autoWaypoint to false.
I use JourneyMap / Xaero's. Will I see two markers? By default (auto) the built-in marker is only shown when no minimap mod is installed.
Where is my history stored? On disk, per world or server, up to historySize deaths.
Can I change the key? Yes, in Controls under "Death Debrief".
