SDF - Death Tracker

Never lose track of where you died. Death Tracker remembers your recent deaths and, paired with SDF - HUD Compass, points you straight back to them.

What it does

Every time you die, Death Tracker records exactly where it happened - the coordinates and the dimension - and tells you immediately in chat:

You died at (123, 64, -45) in the Nether.

That history persists across restarts, and every player's deaths are tracked independently: a busy server with a dozen people fighting the Nether doesn't crowd out your own death history, and your deaths never crowd out anyone else's.

HUD Compass integration (optional)

If SDF - HUD Compass is also installed, your most recent deaths appear as skull markers on its compass strip - pointing you the right way the moment you're back in the dimension you died in. Each marker is labeled with the time of death, so if you've died more than once, you can tell them apart at a glance.

Death Tracker works completely fine without HUD Compass installed too - you still get the tracking and the death messages, there's just nowhere to draw the markers.

Privacy

You only ever see your own deaths. Nobody else on the server can see where or when you died, and you can't see theirs - there's no shared list, no leaderboard, and nothing broadcast to chat for anyone but you.

Configuration

Server (config/sdf_death_tracker-server.toml):

• maxTrackedDeaths (default 50) - how many of your own most recent deaths are remembered before the oldest is dropped. This is per player, not a total shared across the server.

Client (config/sdf_death_tracker-client.toml):

• showDeathMarkers (default true) - toggle death markers on HUD Compass on or off
• maxDisplayedDeaths (default 5) - how many of your tracked deaths show as markers at once

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.21.1
• NeoForge 21.1.176
• Install on both client and server (or in a singleplayer/LAN world) - death tracking itself needs both sides; only the HUD Compass markers are client-only
• SDF - HUD Compass - optional, only needed for the compass markers

Disclaimer: This mod is built specifically for, and exclusively supports, the Super Duper Fuel (SDF) modpack, targeting the exact Minecraft/NeoForge versions listed above. It will not be updated for compatibility with other Minecraft versions, other mod loaders (Forge, Fabric, Quilt, etc.), or future NeoForge releases outside of what the SDF pack itself uses. There are no plans to broaden support beyond this pack. Use outside of Super Duper Fuel is possible but entirely unsupported. Please feel free to make your own versions and use this for your own modpacks!
