- Claim Items: Players can right-click the chest to reclaim their items. Any player can access the items if necessary.
- Configurable Worlds: Chests only spawn in enabled worlds.
- Survival Mode Only: The chest spawns only if the player was in Survival mode.
- Customizable Messages: Display messages on signs and in chat with HTML color codes.
- Custom Chest Blocks: Choose which block types can replace the default loot chest.
- Inventory Retention: If inventory retention is enabled in the world, chests will not appear
