What it does
This mod simply adds a menu which allows you to respawn quickly and easily. It is activated by pressing the R key (custom keys available v1.1.0+). It works in all gamemodes, even if cheats are not activated.
How it works
Clicking R makes a prompt open. Unless you are on a server, the game should also pause.
If No is clicked on the prompt, you return to normal gameplay.
However, if Yes is clicked, you die normally. Normally means all of your items drop, you are reset to the world spawn, and the death screen shows.
It even works correctly with Totems of Undying, they drop on the ground ready for you to pick up.
For servers
On multiplayer servers, the mod must be installed on both the client and the server to work correctly.
Otherwise, the UI will work, but respawning will not work correctly.
