How to Customize DeadChest Appearance, Timers, and Rules

You can tailor how DeadChests look, how long they last, and where they are allowed to spawn by editing the plugin's customization settings on your server.

Changing Visuals and Duration

1. Open the DeadChest configuration file in your server folder.

2. Choose whether DeadChests appear in the world as standard chests or as player heads.

3. Adjust the chest duration setting to give players more or less time to reach their death spot before the chest and its contents are destroyed, or set chests to have no timer at all.

4. Edit the holographic content, colors, and language settings to match your server's style while keeping the owner's name and remaining time readable.

Setting Limits by World, Item, and Gamemode

1. Set the allowed number of DeadChests per player, or leave it unlimited so repeated deaths do not cap out.

2. Configure world management and gamemode management rules to control which worlds—such as the Overworld, Nether, or End—and which gamemodes generate DeadChests.

3. Adjust the items management and drop options to control how stored items and container drops are handled.

4. Save the configuration so newly spawned DeadChests use your updated timers, visuals, and limits.
