DeathCoords is a small, client-only Fabric mod for players who keep losing their inventory to lava, mobs, or that one unexpected drop. Whenever you die, the mod records exactly where it happened and tells you in chat — twice — so you can walk back and reclaim your gear.
Features
- Death message in chat. As soon as you die, the mod posts your X, Y, Z coordinates and the dimension to chat:
[DeathCoords] You died at X 124, Y 64, Z -312 (Overworld) - Repeats after respawn. A second message is posted right after you respawn, so you don't miss it on the death screen:
[DeathCoords] Your last death was at X 124, Y 64, Z -312 (Overworld) - Clipboard copy. The coordinates are copied to your system clipboard as
X Y Z, ready to paste into a waypoint mod, a wiki, or a Discord chat. - Dimension-aware. Recognizes the Overworld, the Nether, the End, and any modded dimension (printed by its registry id).
- Client-only. Works on any server — singleplayer or multiplayer. No mixins, no server install required.
How it works
On every client tick, the mod polls the player's death state. On the alive→dead edge it captures the current position and dimension key, prints the death message, and writes the coordinates to the system clipboard. On the dead→alive edge (respawn), it prints the last-known death location again so you see it in chat once the death screen is gone.
Cross-version
Tested on 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10, 1.21.11. One JAR, one install.
No configuration
There is nothing to configure — the mod just works. No keybinds, no GUI, no JSON file.
