Installation & Update
First installation
Just drag and drop DeadChest.jar to your plugins file and launch your server. In the plugin/deadchest folder you will find 3 files :
- config.yml : File to edit the configuration of the plugin (you should open it and put the params you want !)
- locale.yml : Langage file, english by default, you can edit this file to the langage you want
- chestData.yml : Do not open or edit this file, it's here that all data about the plugin is stored.
- deadchest.log : Track all Deadchest events here.
Update from a previous version
Before making the update you need to do these step:
- Be sure that no deadchest are living in your worlds.
- Shutdown your server and remove the folder DeathChest
- Put the new jar file
- Relaunch the server ( DeadChest folder is generate again with configs file)
- Update your configuration by editing config.yml and locale.yml
If you remove the deadchest folder and some deadchests was still alive, all these deadchest are now corrupted. If a player break a deadchest, he will get nothing back and the holographic text will stay. if you are in this case don't worry, I made a command to handle this case. Just type /dc repair next to corrupted deadchests. (You need to be OP or have permission (deadchest.admin)

Will this plugin be compatible with 1.18.x? My server is on 1.18.2 and our dead chests disappear immediately. DeadChestDuration is set to 0 (in config.yml) as we want our dead chests to last for an infinite duration. Wondering if the issue is with our server version?
In reply to Bakuden:
Hello,
Deadchest is working for 1.18.x. if you have issue, this is probably something wrong with your server or a plugin miss-compatibility.
If you need more help, join us on discord. You will have help here :)

When I'm using this on my 1.18 server, whenever a player dies, the server log gets spammed with this error message over and over again: Could not pass event PlayerInteractEvent to DeadeChest V4.8.0.
Then it says some stuff about eventexception: null
In reply to nuttapillar97:
same on mine. i dont know if this could lead to lost of items, but everything works fine tho, i guess? it's just anoying seeing this on console
In reply to pirucasamarelo:
This issue is fixed on version 4.8.1. This version should be available soon on Bukkit :)
Please update it for Minecraft 1.18.1
when does the version 4.8.0 come out?
In reply to betagamer734:
When bukkit staff will approve the jar file
So with the newest version, if the death chest tries to spawn below y=0, seems like the chest either doesn't spawn at all, spawns on the surface, or spawns in a random location.
In reply to Epic_Stick:
Hi,
The version 4.8.0 will be out in a few hours. This version will handle 1.18 and deadchest under y=0
Hello! I was just curious if the plugin has a GUI... Where people can click a button and get tp` to their death chest`?
In reply to tehqyxd:
Hi ! No not yet, it's planned for the next major version :)
