DeathMessageV77 v1.1

The biggest update yet — 9 new features, no restart needed.

What's new

  • Ranged PvP detection — separate messages for bow, crossbow, and trident kills with %distance% showing exact block distance
  • Kill streak messages — broadcasts at 3, 5, and 10 kill milestones, fully configurable
  • First assist credit — detects the last player who hit the victim and gives them a shoutout
  • Revenge kill detection — fires a special message when you kill whoever killed you last
  • %dropped_item% placeholder — resolves to the most valuable item the player was holding at death
  • Death title screen — flashes a configurable title and subtitle to the dead player on screen
  • Broadcast radius — only players within X blocks see the death message; killer and victim always notified
  • Boss kill messages — unique message lists for Wither, Ender Dragon, Elder Guardian, and Warden kills
  • Discord webhook — posts every death to a Discord channel async via webhook URL, no extra dependencies

Bug fixes

  • Death messages no longer overlap — secondary messages (assist, revenge, streak) are staggered with tick delays so they never stack in chat simultaneously
  • Death event guard added to prevent duplicate firing on the same player

Upgrading from v1.0

  1. Replace the old JAR with the new one in /plugins/
  2. Start the server — new config keys are added automatically
  3. Run /dmv77 reload
  4. No manual config migration needed

Requirements

  • Paper 1.21.11
  • Java 21+
  • PlaceholderAPI (optional)
