About this Mod
Death Log
A persistent list of where you last died — coordinates, dimension, in-world day, and cause — kept across restarts. No gravestone block, no map mod: run /deaths and walk back to your stuff.
The recovery compass is single-use, and gravestone mods add blocks that can clash with minimaps. Death Log is a lightweight server-side history instead: it records each death and lets you look it up any time.
Death Log — your last 3 deaths (newest first):
#1 · day 12 · (210, 64, -88) overworld — Slain by Zombie
#2 · day 9 · (-44, 12, 301) overworld — Fell from a high place
#3 · day 4 · (88, 70, -150) the_nether — Walked into fire
/deaths shows your own history (last 10, newest first); /deaths <player> is op-only and resolves currently-online players. Cause text is the vanilla death message captured at the time of death, stored in vanilla world data so it survives restarts.
It's read-only and server-side — no mixin, no config, no blocks or items — so it can't conflict with other mods. Pairs with the sibling mod Death Forensics, which explains a single death in depth.
Server-side — install on the server only.
Free to use in any modpack. Source and issues: https://github.com/KURONAMI333/death-log

Death Log server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Death Log compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge?
Death Log officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.1, 1.20.1. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Death Log – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Death Log consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
