Kronentroll's Graves 1.0.3

Version 1.0.3 is a major protection, restoration and quality-of-life update.

Added

Automatic grave compasses

• Physical graves automatically provide their owner with a compass after respawn.
• Compasses are no longer processed as death drops.
• Previously virtual graves can provide a compass when placed later.
• Existing compasses can be updated instead of duplicated.
• Automatic delivery never drops a compass on the ground when the inventory is full.
• Invalid and duplicate grave compasses can be cleaned up automatically.

Nearby placement protection

• Added configurable placement protection around physical graves.
• Solid blocks cannot be placed directly next to protected graves by default.
• Water buckets, flowing water and waterlogging remain allowed.
• Lava buckets and lava flow are blocked inside the protected area by default.
• Horizontal and vertical protection radii are configurable.
• Operator bypass behavior is configurable.

Configuration and audit logging

• Updated the configuration schema to version 3.
• Added descriptions for existing and new configuration options.
• Existing values are preserved during migration.
• Added audit entries for normal and shift-click item removal.
• Audit entries can include the actor, grave, item identifier, amount, transfer method and remaining contents.
• Full books, container contents and unrestricted item-component data are not serialized.

Improved

Inventory and hotbar restoration

• The compass belonging to a grave is removed before complete restoration.
• This applies to the emerald button, sneak-right-click and administrative restoration.
• Original inventory and hotbar slots are prioritized.
• Items collected after death are moved away from original slots when safe space is available.
• Newly collected items prefer originally empty main-inventory slots before hotbar slots.
• Existing unrelated items are never overwritten.
• Contents that cannot be restored safely remain inside the grave.

Emergency-platform protection

• Registered emergency-platform blocks cannot be broken by players, including in Creative mode.
• Registered platform Obsidian does not drop as an item.
• Platforms remain protected from explosions and pistons.
• Automatic cleanup replaces registered platform blocks directly with air and creates no drops.
• Normal Obsidian outside registered emergency platforms remains unaffected.

Grave and client synchronization

• The supporting block directly below a physical non-empty grave is protected.
• A supporting block that was already missing can still be replaced.
• Rejected placements now synchronize affected blocks, neighboring block states, the active hand slot, the inventory and the open menu.
• Blocked placements no longer leave ghost blocks or incorrect stack counts.

Localization

• Added English and German translations for solid-block and lava-placement protection.
• Removed hard-coded German protection messages.
• Protection messages now respect each player's selected language.

Fixed

• Fixed automatic grave compasses dropping beside the grave with the player head.
• Fixed containers failing to open while the player held a block.
• Fixed blocked placements temporarily consuming or hiding an item until the slot was clicked.
• Fixed lava buckets being usable directly next to graves.
• Fixed lava flowing into protected grave areas.
• Fixed blocks below graves being removable while replacement was blocked.
• Preserved the existing Totem of Undying, player-head, empty-grave and administrative-access fixes.

Notes

• Exact restoration of every original slot requires enough free space to relocate items collected after death.
• If safe space is unavailable, current items are preserved and incompatible grave contents remain stored.
• Automatic compass delivery does not drop a compass when the inventory is full. Use /grave compass <number> to request it manually.
• Existing player heads and grave compasses are not rewritten automatically unless handled by their normal validation process.
