Understand Item Protection Mechanics

How Loyal Items Mod Protects Your Inventory

This mod works automatically without any configuration needed. Understanding how it functions helps you plan your adventures with confidence.

Protection Details

When your character dies:

  • All items in your inventory are dropped as item entities
  • Normally, these items despawn after 5 minutes
  • Loyal Items Mod removes this despawn timer entirely
  • Items remain in the world indefinitely until you collect them

What This Means for Gameplay

You can take your time recovering from a death without losing equipment or resources. This is especially valuable during:

  • Long cave explorations where death is far from home
  • Boss fights where multiple attempts are needed
  • Dangerous mining trips with valuable tools

Performance Impact

The mod contains no ticking functions or loading processes, so it has zero performance impact on your game. You can safely use it alongside other mods without concern.
