Gravestone Mod (26.1.2, 1.20.1) – Create a Grave When The Player Dies

Gravestone Mod places a gravestone with your inventory items inside when you die. To retrieve items, simply break the grave. Items can also be recovered by sneaking on the grave. Right-clicking the grave displays information about the player’s death. Graves can restore items back to their original inventory slots.

Features:

The Obituary

Each time a player dies, an obituary is created. It includes:

• Player name
• Dimension of death
• Date and coordinates of death
• Image of the player with equipment at the time of death
• List of all carried items

The obituary feature can be disabled or set to auto-delete after item recovery.

Naming the Grave

Breaking the grave with Silk Touch drops it as an item. Graves can also be crafted. Renaming a grave in an anvil allows custom text to appear on it.

Customization Options

Config settings allow players to adjust:

• Text color on the grave
• Whether the skull should be displayed
• Whether the obituary should be generated
• Which blocks can be replaced by a grave
• If the death note should be removed after breaking the grave
• If only the grave owner can break it
• If a ghost should spawn upon breaking the grave
• Whether the ghost defends or attacks the player
• If the grave should break when sneaking on it
• If items should return to original inventory slots upon recovery

Recovering Lost Items

If items are lost, they can be recovered using the command:

/restore <player> <death_id> <replace|add>

• player: the player whose inventory will be restored.
• death_id: the ID of the death, found by enabling advanced tooltips (F3 + H) or checking the logs.
• replace|add: whether to overwrite or add items to the inventory.

Admins can obtain a pre-made restore command by sneaking and right-clicking an obituary.

Edge Cases

• If the player dies inside a block, the grave appears at the nearest free space above.
• If there is no available space or the player dies above build height, items drop normally.
• If the player falls into the void, the grave is placed at the lowest valid block position or the next available spot above.
