Re:Zero - Return by Death
A simple mod that adds Re:Zero style death mechanics to Minecraft.
Features
- Instant respawn with Re:Zero death sounds
- Special rare sound with configurable chance (15% default)
- Darkness effect when special sound plays
- Multiplayer support - sounds can be heard by all players that are nearby
- Auto-enables game rules for immediate respawn (and optionally keep inventory)
How it works
When you die, you'll instantly respawn and hear a Re:Zero death sound. There's a small chance to hear a special sound with a brief darkness effect for extra drama.
Configuration
Settings are in config/rezeroreturnbydeath-common.toml:
# Core Settings
enableReZeroRespawn = true # Master toggle
autoEnableImmediateRespawn = true # Auto-enable instant respawn
autoEnableKeepInventory = false # Keep items on death (optional)
# Audio Settings
specialSoundChance = 0.01 # 1% chance for special sound
playSoundToAllPlayers = true # Everyone close hears death sounds
perPlayerRandomSounds = false # Individual vs shared sound rolls
# Visual Effects
