🪦 GravesSystem
A lightweight, immersive, and highly performant death chest alternative for modern Minecraft servers.
GravesSystem replaces messy item drops and outdated death chests with a clean, immersive grave system designed for performance and compatibility. When a player dies, their exact inventory layout is safely captured and a custom player head using their real Minecraft skin is placed at the death location.
Above the grave, a modern real-time hologram appears, displaying the victim’s name, the exact cause of death (PvP, fall, lava, etc.), and a live countdown timer until the grave expires — creating a clear, intuitive, and immersive death experience.
All logic is designed with performance in mind, ensuring minimal impact on the main server thread and zero world file clutter.
✨ Key Features
- Immersive Player Graves Graves are represented by the dead player’s actual head block, rendered using their real Minecraft skin instead of clunky chests.
- Exact Inventory Preservation The plugin captures and restores the player’s inventory slot-for-slot, ensuring items return to the exact positions they were in before death.
- Instant Restoration Right-clicking the grave instantly restores items directly into the player’s inventory with no menus or delays.
- Secure Ownership Only the grave owner can interact with or loot their grave. Other players cannot break, steal, or interfere.
- Modern Holograms Lightweight TextDisplay entities show the player name, death reason, and a live ticking expiration timer above the grave.
- Automatic Cleanup Graves despawn cleanly when looted or when the configurable timer expires. If the player’s inventory is full, remaining items are gently dropped on the ground.
- Highly Optimized Designed for modern servers with asynchronous handling where possible, ensuring excellent performance even on busy servers.
- No Heavy Dependencies Does not rely on ProtocolLib or other heavy packet-manipulation plugins.
- World Blacklisting Easily disable the plugin in specific worlds via configuration.
⚙️ Configuration
GravesSystem is intentionally simple to configure:
- Set a global grave expiration time
- Blacklist specific worlds where graves should not appear
