📖About Gravestones

Gravestones

A screenshot of a gravestone in front of a cliff. Written on the gravestone is the name Pneumono_, and the date and time of death.

Gravestones adds blocks which store your items on death.

It's a fairly standard grave mod, but with nicer, vanilla-style textures, extra config options to help tailor the mod to specific servers, and the option to use gravestones in builds.

See the wiki for more detailed information!

Decay

Gravestone decay is very configurable and all of its features can be configured or disabled if they are not wanted!

By default, all gravestones decay over time and due to subsequent deaths. This is shown visually by a change in the block's texture.

After 3 stages of decay, the gravestone breaks entirely, spilling its contents onto the ground (after which the vanilla 5-minute despawn timer applies).

Aesthetic Gravestones

Gravestones also includes craftable "aesthetic gravestones", which allow builders to use the gravestone blocks without having their builds at risk of damage.
They can also be written on and dyed just like signs.
