Frequently asked questions

How do I make the totem work from my inventory?

Just keep a Totem of Undying anywhere in your inventory and it will activate automatically when you take fatal damage. No config or keybind is needed—the mod changes the check from your hand to your whole inventory.

Does the totem need to be in my hotbar or can it be in a backpack slot?

It works from any inventory slot, including slots added by backpack or storage mods, as long as the item is actually inside your player inventory. It does not need to be in your hotbar or selected.

Will the totem activate if it's inside a shulker box in my inventory?

No. A totem stored inside a shulker box, bundle, or other container item is not directly in your inventory, so it will not trigger. Keep at least one totem loose in a normal inventory slot for the effect to work.

Does the totem get consumed when it saves me?

Yes, the effect is exactly the same as vanilla—one totem is consumed each time it saves you from death. If you carry multiple totems, the next one can save you again later.
