Keep Inventory Orbs

A fully server-side approach to the gravestone concept introducing 'orbs' to store your inventory upon death.

Upon death:

• An Orb will spawn that will keep your inventory safe.
• A compass to help you locate your last orb will be given to you.

Recovering Inventory:

• When an Orb is broken, it will attempt to restore its inventory only to its owner.

  If the Orb's owner is not found within 5 blocks from the orb, nothing will happen and the orb will respawn.

• Orbs will re-equip your armor and items exactly into the slot they were.

  If the slot is occupied by something else, the item will drop in the player's position.

Orb behavior:

• Orbs have gravity and will fall if they have no support.

  Upon impact, they will attempt to restore its inventory.

• Orbs will always spawn in the first air/water block above the player's death position

  If the player dies in the void, orbs will spawn following this rule. (usually y=0 in the end)

• Orbs cannot be moved by pistons (your piston might break)

Server-side advantages

If you are a server owner or admin, installing this datapack/mod into the server makes it work for everyone!

No need to install it on the client side!

Statistics (for Server Admins)

This datapack/mod will offer you some unique Stats for admins to use in case of need.

After an Orb succesfully restores its inventory, it will turn into a Stats-Orb that registers 'Stats' with information about the player's death.

These Stats can be easily accessed from the Built-in Chat Menu:
/function keep_inventory_orbs:.menu

In the Menu you can:

• Get Nearest Stats
  • Shows the Stats from the nearest Stats-Orb
• Enable/Disible Visible Stats
  • When enabled, shows particles locating Stats-Orb within 16 blocks
• Delete All Stats
  • Counts all Stats-Orbs in currently loaded chunks and deletes them
