Simple Death Improvements Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need to configure anything when I first install this mod?
No, the mod works immediately after installation with sensible defaults. All death improvements are active right away without any setup needed.
What exactly happens to my items when I die in lava?
Instead of losing them in the lava, your items are teleported to the last safe location you were at before entering the lava, keeping them protected from fire damage and despawning.
Will my items ever despawn with this mod?
No, items dropped on death will never despawn, no matter how long you take to collect them.
How much experience do I lose when I die?
You lose significantly less XP than vanilla Minecraft, and most of the experience you do drop can be recollected by picking it back up.
Why are all my items in one pile instead of scattered around?
This mod concentrates all items at your exact point of death instead of scattering them, making collection much faster and easier.
Can I turn off specific features like the lava protection or XP changes?
Check your mod configuration files for toggleable options, though the mod is designed to work best with all features enabled together.
Does this mod work with other death-related mods?
Compatibility depends on how other mods handle death mechanics; test with your specific mod combination, as conflicts are possible with mods that heavily modify death behavior.
What if I die in the void or other instant-death situations?
Your items will still be protected and concentrated at your last safe location, preventing loss in most death scenarios.
Does this mod affect multiplayer servers?
The mod works on single-player worlds and servers where it's installed; server administrators would need to install it for multiplayer protection.
Will this mod cause lag or performance issues?
No, this mod is lightweight and makes minimal impact on performance since it only modifies what happens when you die.
