DeathWaypoints is a plugin that leverages the new locator bar to mark player death locations. Each waypoint is displayed with a distinctive custom icon for easy recognition. The plugin also includes a menu system that enables players to show, hide or delete their death waypoints.

• Generate a waypoint at the player’s death location upon death.
• Display the list of death points of a player.
• Toggle the visibility of the death waypoints of a player.
• Delete a death waypoint point.
• Set a global limit on the number of death points per player; the oldest entry is automatically deleted once the limit is exceeded.
• Per world handling: only death points in the world the player is currently in are visible.
• Compatible with SQLite (default), MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL databases.
• Fully customizable (general settings, messages, menus).

Warning: As this plugin uses the new locator bar, it is actually only compatible with the following versions: 1.21.6, 1.21.7, 1.21.8.

The plugin requires a resource pack to display the custom icon in the locator bar which can be downloaded here. The resource pack must be added manually in your .minecraft resource-pack folder. If you want, you can add its content to your own resource pack.

The plugin can also be used without a resource pack by disabling the use-resource-pack property in the config.yml. If set to true, death points will be displayed using a custom color.

Step 1: Download the JAR file.

Step 2: Put the downloaded JAR file in the plugins folder of your Spigot server.

Step 3 (optional): Open the config.yml file generated by the plugin and edit the configuration by following the guidelines to customize the plugin as you wish.

• /death-waypoints (aliases : /dw, /dwp) → Open the death waypoints menu.

• deathwaypoints.command → Access the /death-waypoints command.

To solve this issue, please start your server by adding the following argument to the java -jar command which uses the official Maven Central repository instead:
