Hello, Mineverse community, The regular Survival players have probably been slain by a monster or fallen to their death. Regardless of the how, we all die on Survival once in a while. We frequently lose our items in the progress. Either by clearlag or because /back is a buggy Essentials feature, or because the player lacks the permission for /back. Nevertheless, it's an annoying occurrence. This suggestion aims to tackle that. The AngelChest plugin collects your items on death and places them in a chest that only YOU, the player who just died, can open. You can teleport back to THAT chest. Open the spoiler for an example. Spoiler If you happen to die inside someone else's claim, there is a permission in the plugin that prevents it from creating a chest. Code: only-spawn-chests-if-player-may-build: false F.A.Q. Q: What happens if the player dies, and the area around the chest is claimed afterward, by another player? A: The answer I got from their Discord is that the chest is always bound to the player. In the mentioned scenario, the player can use /acfetch to get the chest to themselves, I believe. https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/1-12-1-16-angelchest.60383/ This might be too overpowered. However, I imagine players argue that this defeats the purpose of Survival. When you die by a zombie, or in PvP, you simply lose your items. That is fair enough. Having said that, there are situations when using an Elytra, where the player can get "bugged out", suddenly fly into a wall because of rendering issues, try and escape a ravine (or similar), or misjudge their landing; and die on impact. BetterDeathHandler To combat this, I've created a less overpowered alternative plugin. The BetterDeathHandler plugin (I.. suck at names). This plugin will check if you died while flying with an elytra. Maybe you smashed into a wall, or flew down and "hit the ground too hard". If you while flying with an elytra, it will give you the option to teleport back to your death location. This option is available until you use it once, or if you log off. A small problem I couldn't get around is when the player falls to their death when wearing an elytra, but is not in a flying state. I'll do my best to fix this in a future version. A demonstration of this plugin can be seen here (thanks Mr. Creeper) The messages are configurable in a config.yml file. The plugin is open source. Check it out here: https://github.com/MyNameIsAres/ElytraDeathHandler Jar file for 1.15.2 is attached. Edit: Jar is back. Should work as normal.
ah not on git actually i meant looking at what's currently on git will cause some errors in game possibly maybe with multiple players using this feature at the same time hint hint
The plugin has tested thoroughly (..I hope). But then again, most plugins break apart on the initial version. :PP If any errors should arise, I'll do my best to fix them.
yess support this is so needed, i was so confident exploring because i thought i had /back, but died and lost all my things rip ;-; it's not too op, and is a good addition for convenience's sake.
Only just died with an Elytra, and the /back command not taking me back to my death location. Either the Angelchest, or my own plugin solves that problem.
support, buggy deaths happen a lot and this would be a step in the right direction to help out with this
Agreed, I died abut 4 times just trying to get my elytra to activate, and had to travel over 11,000 blocks to get the items back. Please also add /ej it would make it much easier to travel for the ranked people
