Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on head drops for my server?
Head drops are enabled by default when you install the plugin. If they're not working, check your settings file to make sure the drop chance is set above 0% and that your current world isn't blacklisted. Reload the plugin with /head reload after making changes.
Can I make heads drop only in certain worlds?
Yes. Use the world blacklist in your settings file to disable head drops in specific worlds like creative mode or peaceful zones. Any world not listed will allow drops, or you can whitelist specific worlds depending on your config setup.
What happens if a player dies to mobs instead of PvP?
By default, heads only drop during player-versus-player combat. You can change this in settings to enable drops for all death types, including PvE accidents and environmental damage like fall damage or fire.
How do I stop players from farming heads off the same person?
Set a drop limit per player in your settings file—this caps how many heads one player can drop in a time period. Once they hit the limit, their heads won't drop again until the cooldown resets.
