DeathGhostFix
DeathGhostFix is a Fabric server-side mod that reduces same-tick death ghosting.
About this Mod
DeathGhostFix
DeathGhostFix reduces same-tick death ghosting by delaying only lethal death resolution until the end of the same server tick.
Without DeathGhostFix, a player can die before same-tick healing or a last-moment totem save is allowed to resolve.
Installation
Install on the server. A client-only install on multiplayer servers will not affect server-authoritative death resolution.
Behavior
- Delays lethal death resolution until the end of the same server tick.
- Allows same-tick saves from totems or healing to cancel death.
- Still applies non-lethal damage immediately.
- Still kills the player from the original damage source if nothing saves them before tick end.
Supported versions
- Minecraft Java 1.21.11
- Minecraft Java 26.1 through 26.1.2
License
DeathGhostFix is released under the Unlicense.

Server lagging with DeathGhostFix – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if DeathGhostFix consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
