Keep Head Names
Player heads keep their custom names and lore tags after being placed down and picked up again.
This is an unofficial fix for MC-174496, which was finally fixed in 1.20.5!
- for Minecraft 1.16-1.20.4 (and 1.20.5 to upgrade your worlds one last time, see the changelog)
- works server-only
Note:
If you still want lore and other custom data to be kept in 1.21+, check out the datapack continuation of this mod, Keep Head Data.
