How It Works
- When you die, a 10-minute countdown timer appears on screen
- The timer shows how long until your items despawn
- If you die multiple times, each death gets its own timer (up to 5)
- When you return to a death location and leave again, that timer clears (items collected)
- 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.
