halfInventory

halfInventory is a lightweight Minecraft plugin that offers a fair middle ground between losing everything on death and enabling full keepInventory.

When a player dies, 50% of their inventory is kept, while the rest is dropped normally. This keeps death meaningful without being overly punishing, making it ideal for vanilla+ survival servers.

Features:

• Keeps 50% of a player’s inventory on death
• Tools and items are selected automatically (no player interaction needed)
• Designed for survival and adventure gameplay
• Configurable Values

Why use halfInventory?

• Prevents total item loss without removing risk
• Discourages abusing keepInventory
• Great for SMPs, casual servers, or younger players
• Keeps gameplay balanced and rewarding

Compatibility
