Commands

How It Works

1. When you die, a 10-minute countdown timer appears on screen
2. The timer shows how long until your items despawn
3. If you die multiple times, each death gets its own timer (up to 5)
4. When you return to a death location and leave again, that timer clears (items collected)
5. If the timer reaches 0:00, the items have despawned

Configuration

The mod uses Hytale's default 10-minute item despawn time. The HUD appears in the top-right corner of the screen.

Dependencies

• Hytale

Version History

v1.0.2

• Added ServerVersion to manifest for Update 3 compatibility

What's New

• MultipleHUD is now optional (not required)
  • Automatically detects if MultipleHUD is installed
  • Falls back to vanilla HUD system if MultipleHUD not present
  • Works standalone or with MultipleHUD - your choice

Fixed

• Death/respawn crash fix - No more client disconnect when dying with active timer
  • Added sendClientPackets parameter to hideHud() method
  • Removed destructive clearHud() call that destroyed MultipleHUD container
  • Death systems already clear client UI - sending packets was redundant and broke namespace references
