To be honest, I'm not all that interested in even having a "Both" function. The idea came to me while I thought of how you could implement running both checks at once. And I only suggested it in case someone wasn't satisfied with the "do either check first" process.

In other words, I'm okay with the quick, simple version rather than the "rewrite algorithm" version. Plus I presume you're pretty busy with real life, so I'd rather put less stress on you. ;)

And thanks for the explanation on experience loss.

I use ExtraHardMode's "lose a percentage of your inventory forever" feature, in addition to this plugin's "keep a percentage of your inventory upon death," and when players die, they drop approximately double the drops. I suspect it's because both plugins override the same death event, and both try to pass their own version of the event leading to the double drops.

So instead of using two plugins for deciding what items stay and what items go upon a player's death, could you add ExtraHardMode's "permanent loss" feature to this plugin? Permanent loss means that the item never drops, and is deleted.

The way you could configure this new feature would probably just be similar to the way you configure how much of an inventory a player keeps. But wait, wouldn't it be confusing for the plugin to determine which items stay and which items get deleted at the same time?

That's why I'm going to suggest that you implement this extra option. Maybe something like this:

CheckFirst: <Delete/Save/Both>

(For the purposes of this example, pretend I configured a group to save 20% of their inventory upon death, and lose 10% of their inventory forever upon death.)

If you choose "Delete" to be checked first, the plugin will look at your entire inventory, and delete a configured percentage (10%) of it, then it will look at what's left of your inventory, then save a configured percentage (20%) of that. Same works vice versa.

Or, if you choose "Both", the plugin will systematically check each "item stack" and apply both percentages at the same time. In this case, we've a 10% delete chance, and a 20% save chance, thus our unfulfilled percentage would be a 70% drop-item chance. Basically, when looking at this item-stack alone, it has a 10% chance of being deleted, a 20% chance of getting saved, and a 70% chance of dropping normally.

Obviously, neither percentage alone or together should add up to over 100%.

Also, I don't understand "xploss" clearly. For the percentage of the xp you do lose, does all of that drop? Some of it? None of it? I'd also like to see an option allowing us to have "the percentage of our xp we retain upon death" in addition to "for the xp that we lose, what percentage of it is actually dropped."

so if it can not remember where your armor is .. is there going to be a fix for when your inventory is full and you have full armor on? .. maybe a command to finish giving you your items when you clear enough spots in your inventory?

and also .. any eta on how long before the next release?

is there any way you can make it remember what slots the items where in? so that it will put your armor back on .. if it does not drop

well just found out a work around .. I made a group that tells it to keep all items and xp:

'100':
retain percentage: 100
xp loss: 0
use xp loss: true

This keeps the armor

found a problem with this method .. if you have armor on and your inventory is full when you die IDC will error out
