Description

When dying you no longer loose your entire inventory. Now you only drop a random amount of each item on death.

How Items Drop
  • Easy items (i.e. Dirt, Rotten Flesh etc.) can drop up to a stack of items on death
  • Regular items (i.e. Iron Ingot, Gold Ingot etc.) can drop up to 32 items on death
  • Rare items (i.e. Diamonds, Netherite Ingots etc.) can drop up to 16 items on death
  • Ultra Rare items (i.e. Dragon Egg, Nether Stars etc.) never drop on death
  • Armor & Tools don't get dropped instead they take damage upon dying until they break
  • Elytra, Tridents & Food Stick items drop once they reach 1 durability upon dying

Various gamerules control how items drop to number of items lost
