Big thanks to Virizion for originally making this plugin. View his original plugin here.

CorpseReborn

CorpseReborn is a plugin to enable dead bodies on your server when you die!

Unlike some other corpses plugins the dead body is flush with the ground! You can also loot corpses by clicking their heads and taking items from the inventory opened!

Commands

/spawncorpse [Player] - Spawns a corpse of a player if the name is given else it just spawns a corpse of yourself.

/removecorpse [radius] - Removes any coprse(s) in a radius of you.

/corpsereborn - Displays a message telling you the version of the plugin your running and if you need to update or not.

/corpsereborn reload - Reloads the config file

Permissions

corpses.spawn - Permission to use /spawncorpse

corpses.remove - Permission to use /removecorpse

corpses.reload - Permission to use /corpsereborn reload

Installation

  1. Put the jar in the plugins folder.

2.
Reboot your server.
Do not use /reload

Configuration

Code (Text):

enable-update-checker: true

corpse-time: 10

on-death: true

looting-inventory: true

show-tags: false

world: all

gui-title: "%corpse%'s Items"

username-format: "%corpse%"

finish-looting-message: "&bYou have finished looting %corpse%'s corpse."

new-hitboxes: true

render-armor: true

save-corpses: true

send-data: true

 

corpse-time

  • Set in seconds how long the corpse lasts. (-1 or lower for forever.)

on-death

  • Sets if corpses spawn on death. (true or false)

looting-inventory

  • Allows you to loot corpses of items they have when they died. (true or false)

looting-inventory

  • Set true if you want the items to be in a GUI instead of the items dropping next to the corpse (true or false)

show-tags

  • Show name tags on corpses. (true or false) (If you hide nametags, there will still be a little gray bar, but that is negligible.)

world

  • The world in which the plugin will use for events. Put 'all' for all worlds.

gui-title - The title displayed in the inventory of the corpse if you have looting-inventory enabled.

username-format - How the player name looks on the corpse

finish-looting-message

  • The message you get when you finish looting the corpse

new-hitboxes - Toggle whether you want the new better hitbox or the old glitchy one.

enable-update-checker - Enable automatically checking for updates? (Note: This will not automatically download the update from spigot, It will just let you know that there is a update available)

render-armor - Should we render player armor and items on the corpses?

save-corpses - Should we save corpses on restart? (Note: only 1.8.8+ will save)

send-data - Disabled Currently Should we send anonymous data to Eric? The only data sent to my web server is what Minecraft version and what type of server you're running. My goal with this data is to see which is the most popular version so I can improve this plugin as best as I can. I totally understand if you do not want to send my server data, hence why this option is here. (Deprecated as of now, until I fix my stats server)

API

Code (Text):

CorpseData CorpseAPI.spawnCorpse(Player p, Location l);

  • spawn a corpse at a location

CorpseData CorpseAPI.spawnCorpse(Player, Location, ItemStack[] inv);

  • spawn a corpse at a location with given items in inventory

CorpseData CorpseAPI.spawnCorpse(Player, Location, ItemStack[] inv, ItemStack helmet, ItemStack chestPlate, ItemStack leggings, ItemStack boots, ItemStack hand, ItemStack offHand);

  • spawn a corpse at a location with given items in inventory and wearing the given armor, with given items in hand

CorpseAPI.removeCorpse(CorpseData);

  • remove a corpse previously created by spawnCorpse.

Events:

CorpseClickEvent(CorpseData, Player)

  • Someone clicked on a corpse

CorpseSpawnEvent(CorpseData, boolean fromCommand)

  • A corpse was spawned (fromCommand is true if from command or API, false if from person dying)
