Allow player to configure gamerules for themselves! No more server-wide `keepInventory`
About this Mod
Gamerules, but personal! No more server-wide keepInventory!
Usage
The mod is server-side, client installation is not required (unless you want to use it in a singleplayer).
Personal rules can be accessed or modified in the same way as gamerules,
with a little difference of using /personalrule <rule> [value].
By default, all personal rules are disabled and all players are using world gamerules.
To disable a personal rule, use /personalrule <rule> reset.
Configuration (<world>/personalrules.conf)
A Carpet-like configuration file with required permission levels per gamerule.
Allowed values are ops, true (everyone), false (disabled),
and permission level in range 0-5 (where 0 = everyone, 5 = disabled).
Permission levels can be queried or modified with /personalrules permission <rule> [permission_level].
Reload from the configuration file with /personalrule permission reload.
The permission level of 2 is required to be able to access /personalrules permission command.
