    Will Gravestones be permanently absent from Alice or will they be added?
    The lack of them is supremely annoying.

    From what i heard, They are bugged. They may be enabled if/when they get fixed.

    OpenBlocks gravestones are bugged at the moment, and if they were enabled you would probably end up fully losing your items instantly.

    Ah, alright, I understand. But would it be possible to add a plugin or small mod or something to create a chest where you die with your items for now?

    I think that your stuff should be dropped on the floor. Its a vanilla mechanic that should stay, personally I never liked the gravestones anyway.

    Makes death pointless...

    I agree with Path, using one of those "OMG I DIED ... but that doesn't matter because i'll get back all the stuff i had" -plugins is kind of pointless...if you die, you have died and so you have to deal with the consequences...

    Now with 1.7, DEATH IS FO RLS.
    If we want it that way this version, I'm perfectly fine with it. It'll ensure that people are more careful when dealing with their life - such as being fearful of lava, scared of falling sand, and thinking twice about hugging creepers.

    I see your guys point but i keep dying early game with no home and really no way to get back so it leaves me to start over with no gear. but then again its not that hard to return to the previous state before i died.......

    Yes but vanilla never accounted for lagg. And most non-noob sources of death on alice are not from vanilla either.

    Vanilla chest would be awesome because then I wouldn't have to spend time breaking the thing. Plus if it was in a hard spot we could easy access it like in lava.

    Vanilla chests are:
    1) Smaller than a survival inventory
    and
    2) Flammable

    I would say always have enderpearls available to tp you home with asap, and if you don't you are fucked. But then perhaps make it so that you can ender home even on fire. Or you could get someone to pick stuff up for you.

    You can always take precautions when mining/whatever you do. Gliders/Tcon leg armor + enchant if you are climbing high above ground, fire resistance potions if mining, jetpacks, healing potions, healing axe etc etc. There is enough stuff to keep you alive in 99.9999% of the cases you find yourself in. :p (perhaps even 100%)

    I don't think vinalla chests are flamable because they arnt full blocks, if someone could back me up on that one not 100% sure also you do have a point about them not beinga full invitory

    Fire spread is disabled because of greifing-potential. You can place lava next to wood and it won't burn.

    Well Ronen, to clear things up, people could keep spam dying for free vanilla chests (if it gets implemented), and a vanilla chest only has 3 rows of 9 slots each - meaning that a vanilla chest can hold 27 items in total. HOWEVER, a player has 4 rows of 9 slots each, making a total of 36 maximum items being held by a player. We all know, you can't stuff 36 different items into a chest that only fits 27, therefore we cannot spawn vanilla chests to hold a player's remains.

    Spam dying for 8 wood seems unlikely. It'd be much easier and faster to make an axe.

    Maybe when you die the hotbar gets dropped and everything else in the chest? or something like that?
