This mod adds a block that behaves like the Stake of Marika from Elden Ring.
Use
Currently, the block is meant to be used in Creative (by server admins) or other modders (who want to add the block to their structures).
There are some options in the config to make it more survival usable, but I was unable to add a crafting recipe that I could turn on and off with the config, so it's ultimately pretty useless in survival.
How to Use
To use the block, you find it in the Functional Block Creative tab. You then place it and right click on it to bring up the GUI. Once you're done setting up the bounding box, that's it. Anyone who dies in that bounding box will have a 3rd option show up on their respawn screen asking if they would rather respawn normally or in front of the stake.
Closing
This is my first published mod, so I hope it works well, and I tested it enough. You can report issues on the GitHub. Hope you enjoy it.
