LootrDeathChest

LootrDeathChest is a lightweight Minecraft plugin that creates a chest containing a player's dropped items at their death location. It is designed to be compatible with Lootr while remaining completely independent and conflict-free.

This plugin prevents items from scattering on the ground and instead stores them safely inside a chest.

How It Works

When a player dies:

1. The plugin intercepts the dropped items.
2. A chest is placed at the death location.
3. All dropped items are stored inside the chest.

This keeps the area clean and prevents items from being lost.

Configuration

Example config.yml:

death-chest:
  remove-time: 300
  hologram: false
  protect-owner: false

You can modify these values to change how the death chest behaves.

Both plugins can run side-by-side safely.
