About this mod Author’s original text
Keep Inventory On Death
Die without losing anything. No tombstone, no naked respawn, no walk back to
grab your gear.
Features
- Keep everything: your full inventory and all equipped items (weapons,
armor, tools, utility items) stay exactly as they were before you died.
- No tombstone: since nothing is dropped, no gravestone is created at your
death location.
- Food buffs still get cleared and, on repeated "hard" deaths, skill penalties
still apply as normal - only the item loss is removed.
Installation
- Install BepInEx
if you haven't already.
- Drop KeepInventoryOnDeath.dll into BepInEx/plugins.
- Start the game.
Compatibility
Client-side only mod that patches how the game handles item loss on death.
Works in single player and multiplayer (each player needs it installed to keep
their own items on death).
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
