Plugin KeepInventory

KeepInventory, permission based death protection

KeepInventory is a lightweight Java plugin for a Minecraft server that lets selected players retain their inventory, armor, and optionally experience after death. Instead of enabling the global keepInventory gamerule, administrators can assign separate permissions, making it practical for staff ranks, VIP benefits, or flexible survival gameplay. The keepitems.keep node preserves items, while keepitems.keepxp preserves experience.

With no configuration required, the plugin keeps its purpose clear and its impact minimal. Our BoxToPlay team recommends it for communities that want to protect player progress without removing the consequences of death for everyone.
