Improved Tombstone Death Mod

Description
Improved Tombstone Death Mod

** Recently updated to tmodloader 1.4.4 **

** Thanks to exuvo for making most of the big improvements to this mod, I came up with the initial code but exuvo took it and heavily improved the edge cases. I have only taken their branch and updated it to work with tmodloader 1.4.4 so I can get to using it again.

Do you like the challenge of a mediumcore character but hate the hassle of reorganizing your inventory every time you retrieve your corpse? Well this mod is for you!

Features:

- Saves player inventory on death in a golden tombstone near where the player died. The player that died can retreive his inventory by right clicking his tombstone.
- Items are restored to the same slot you had them in, so no more fiddling around mid combat trying to equip armor again.
- May remove plants to fit the tombstone but never removes walls. If you die in the air 2 blocks of dirt will be placed to support a mid air tombstone.
- If it is not possible to place a tombstone your inventory drops on the ground as normal.
- Prevents the tombstones block's from being destroyed while a tombstone sits on top, which should prevent accidental destruction by bombs or misclicks

- On disconnect/save (the game saves pretty often) your not picked up tombstone with the most valuable items is saved locally and can still be retrieved in the next game session.
- If the tombstone has been removed or you go to a different map, the in game coordinates of the saved tombstone is printed in chat. Place a tombstone close to those coordinates (max 3 block distance) and right click it to restore your inventory.

There is 1 bug that I am unable to fix and that is that a tombstone is still created even if you have an item that prevents death.
Workaround is to quickly right click the tombstone but you really need to quickly realise that you had a prevented death which can be difficult during combat.

I think it is a great mod but

I found a bug when I was using "Nebulous Core" in Calamity Mod, which has the following effect:
>>> When the player reaches 0 HP, they will be revived and healed for 100 HP.

When the player reaches 0 HP, all the items are put into the tombstone, making the player barebone, which makes the Nebulous Core effectively useless.

I found a bug where if u die to a bomb that you threw your grave gets destroyed and the items disappear

Not that I'm aware unfortunately. Saving and reloading the map might print it out in the console but I can't remember if that's still a thing that happens

Yo hello mister logicon- i died in mysterious fashion and dont have the location which is typically left in the chat- is there a place where i can find the location of my inventory locally? (or even my inventory's contents would be fine)

It should still work, there hasn't been a new version of tmodloader so as far as I know there's no changes needed.

Is this still working in 2025? were gonna do another run soon would be super cool to have this
I like the look of this mod, but have a question about three things.
1) could it be made so when you die in mid-air the gravestone falls to the ground like a regular one
2) options to turn off the lights on gravestones? I like my graveyards dark (also make them flickering lights)(preferably also have them off by default to make finding your grave more difficult)
3) for your grave to not always be a golden one, but a random one as usual.

@slime it should still work! Unless there was a recent tmodloader update that broke mods again

@Psychotrickser there just isn't a way with the modding framework at the moment to make tombstones completely indestructible. They technically are in that you can't manually take them down but the blocks it sits on could always be destroyed and there's no way we can prevent that (at least with how the tmodloader library works right now). So unfortunately this is just how it works. The workaround is that you can place down a tombstone manually in the right spot like you had mentioned
