Starter Kits Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do players get a starter kit every time they respawn?
No, starter kits are only given once when a player joins the world for the first time. Dying and respawning will not award new kits, but you can configure the mod to give kits to returning players if desired.
How do I change what items are in the starter kit?
You can customize the starter kit contents by editing the mod's configuration file. The guide 'Customize the Starter Kit Contents' walks through which settings to modify and how to add or remove items.
Can I give different starter kits to players in different game modes?
Yes, the mod supports setting up different kits for different game modes. See the 'Set Up Different Kits for Different Game Modes' guide for instructions on configuring mode-specific kits.
A player didn't receive their starter kit. What should I do?
Check the 'Troubleshoot Missing Starter Kit Items' guide, which covers common causes like inventory being full, configuration errors, or players joining before the mod loaded. You may need to manually give them items or reset their first-join status.
Can I make the mod give kits to players who already played before?
Yes, you can configure the mod to award starter kits to returning players instead of only new players. The 'Give Starter Kits to Returning Players' guide explains how to enable and customize this behavior.
What if a player's inventory is full when they join?
If a player's inventory is completely full, they may not receive all starter kit items. Make sure players have at least some free inventory slots when joining, or configure the kit to contain fewer items.
Does this mod work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, Starter Kits Mod is designed for multiplayer servers and will track which players have already received their kits to avoid duplication.
Can I give players the starter kit manually if they missed it?
You can manually give items to players using commands, but you'll also need to mark them as having received their kit in the mod's data files to prevent them from getting duplicates on next login. Check your server's configuration folder for player data files.
Is the empty map useful or can I remove it from the kit?
The empty map is included by default but can be removed by editing the mod's configuration if you don't want players to have it. You can customize the entire kit contents to match your server's needs.
Will this mod cause lag or performance issues?
Starter Kits Mod is lightweight and only runs when players first join, so it should have minimal performance impact on servers or single-player worlds.
