📋 About This Mod
# Description Minecraft's (https://minecraft.wiki/w/Game_rule#keepInventory) game rule provides an important feature for players, but it unfortunately fails to account for mixed preferences in servers. Keep It Personal is a Fabric mod which seeks to remedy this by providing commands to individually customize what players drop on death. With these commands, players can: * Choose what they drop on death without affecting others * Customize what parts of their inventory are dropped Keep It Personal is designed to be lightweight and compatible; it's entirely server-side and is fully compatible with vanilla clients. # Installation To install this mod, simply add the JAR to the `mods` directory in the root directory of the server. # Usage This mod uses a single command, `/kip`, along with multiple subcommands as outlined below. ## Death Preferences The following table contains the options a player can choose to keep on death. | Name | Description | |:------------:|:---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `armor` | The player's equipped helmet, breastplate, leggings, and boots | | `offhand` | The item held in the player's off-hand | | `hotbar` | Items in the player's hotbar | | `inventory` | Items in the player's main inventory, excluding the options above | | `cursed` | Items in the player's inventory that are enchanted with Curse of Vanishing | | `experience` | The player's experience | ## Subcommands ### View All Preferences To view a list of your current preferences, run `/kip`. ### View Individual Preference To view whether you have selected a specific preference, run `/kip <preference>`. ### Keep Everything on Death To keep everything in your inventory on death, run `/kip everything`. ### Clear All Preferences To clear your preferences and drop everything on death, run `/kip nothing`. ### Set a Specific Preference To set a specific preference, run `/kip <preference> <true | false>`, where `true` indicates that you wish to keep the preferred items on death, and `false` indicates you wish to drop them. # Configuration Keep It Personal can be configured in the `config/keep_it_personal.toml` file.
