I have a few ideas, though not integral to the plugin's current functionality.
1a. While not required, a permission node node like 'deadchest.generate' that would be assigned to players to allow them to use the deadchest plugin's benefit (right now there is no general 'use' permission that i see, and everyone gets/generates a deadchest on death. not a big deal, but could be useful in some situations) -
1b. +config setting: RequirePermissionToGenerate: false (default to no permission node needed to generate deadchest(s)) - this would also allow the use of the -negative- permission usage to negate generating chests when desired. (good for some regions where this would make a mess)
PS. The 'deadchest.KeepInventory' node reads to me like the vanilla 'gamerule keepinvenetory true' setting, which i would think would /NOT/ generate a chest and just keep the inventory on the player at respawn. - is this correct? (or is it more like 'deadchest.generate' i noted above? - if so, it's a bit confusing)
2. command to clear infinate chests /dc removeinfinate - clears only deadchest blocks that are infinate (not despawnable) - great for cleaning up messy admin deaths (deadchest.admin)
3. command to clear all chests /dc removeall - clears All deadchest blocks in world and clears database file (deathchest.admin)
4a. command to clear specific player's deadchests /dc remove [player] - clears all deadchests that x player may have, reguardless of time status (good for cleaning up a single user's mess)
4b. deadchest.remove.own - permission to use the command /dc remove to remove one's own chests. (good for players if deathchests is set to a long despawn time and they don't need them anymore)
4.c deadchest.remove.other - permission to use /dc remove <player> - usually admin command, but might be useful for mods with less access rights
5a. /dc list - list of co-ords, and distance to your own death chests and remaining time before despawn deadchest.list.own - player use (page functionality recommended, default config PermissionRequiredToListOwn: false /no perm needed)
5b. /dc list <player/all> lists deathchests for x player or all deathchests deadchest.list.other - admin/mod use (page functionality recommended)
6a. deathchest.group.<name> - custom despawn times for different custom groups. (permision node must be assigned, greatest time is used if multiple assigned)
(this one would be nice for a much later version #extra features)
6b. config example:
CustomGroups:
- admin: (would be deathchest.group.admin)
- despawn: (24 hours value)
- vip:
- despawn: (6 hours value)
7. Auto Cleanup functionality: config/command(#3)
AutocleanupOnStart: false - cleans deathchests blocks and database on server start
AutocleanupInterval: 0 - cleans chests older than x time - 0=not enabled, x time in (minutes?), this would clean up infinity chests, or chests that use a time greater than the default. (math? time remaining - time to cleanup)
8. i like the beacon idea below, but maybe require an item or command to enable it?
8a: use the beacon effect from the end gateway portal? (diff color?) right
Config ex/idea/thoughts:
BeaconEffect:
#you must be within this block-distance to activate the beacon effect
- MaxDistance: 50
#Cooldown in ticks to prevent command/item click spamming
- Cooldown: 20
- Item:
#Enable/Disable use of shift-right-clicking with item
- Enabled: true
#Permission Node: deathchest.beacon.item
- PermissionRequired: false
#define item required to pulse/activate beacon, reccomend supporting using metadata, Give respawn's player an item to activate beacon? (exclude item from creating a deathchest if only item, and do not include in deathchests, item removed when all deathchests are recovered/removed) ie: feather{lore:Find my stuff}
- Item: DIRT_BLOCK
#/dc beacon, deathchest.beacon.cmd
- Command:
- Enabled: true
- PermissionRequired: false
- Messages:
- NotInRange: 'You are not close enough to activate the beacon'
- InRange: 'Beacon Activated'
#primarily for the command, if item use is disabled, it wouldn't do anything anyway)
- NoPerms: 'You do not have permission to use that'
#second line that follows InRange/NotInRange messages:
- NearestChest: 'Nearest chest is at %x%, %y%, %z%, %dist% away.'
- NoDeathChests: ' You don''t have any DeathChests to recover.'
PPS/note: Add permissions nodes and description section to plugin description :) -oh wait.. it's a giant image. derpz >< ... though a text version [spoiler section?] would be nice to copy-paste nodes (and searchable on page with ctrl+f).
Thank you. stay awesome!

When player fall out of the world, that don't generate a deadchest. (it's planned) If you want to remove deadchest for an admin you need to remove the permission deadchest.keepinventory for him :)

The permission : deadchest.keepinventory is enable by default on the plugin (as you can see in the permission section of this page). So everyone have this permission so everyone generate a deadchest on death. You need to remove it for your admin to don't generate deadchest. For that add just this kind of line : - -deadchest.keepinventory. Don't forget the second "-". It's the symbol to remove a permission. Hope I help you.

Posted Dec 7, 2019hello! this error keeps occuring:
07.12 21:41:10 [Server] WARN [DeadChest] Task #45 for DeadChest v2.7 generated an exception
the chests that spawn when a player dies are then stuck on loading. reinstalling the plugin fixes this for a short while, but it always reverts to this error.
i loved the plugin, but had to uninstall it when players kept losing all their stuff!
i would like to reinstall it, so any suggestions are appreciated
