Item Despawn Tweaks Plus

Dropped items disappearing too fast is a terrible way to lose progress. This fixes that.

Item Despawn Tweaks Plus lets you configure how long dropped items and XP orbs stay in the world, so you can make survival less punishing or clean up faster on busy servers.

Features

  • Configure dropped item despawn time
  • Configure XP orb despawn time
  • Simple JSON config
  • Server-side friendly
  • Works in singleplayer and multiplayer

Config

Config file: config/item-despawn-tweaks-plus.json

{
  "item_despawn_ticks": 6000,
  "xp_orb_despawn_ticks": 6000
}

20 ticks = 1 second. Vanilla default is 6000 ticks (5 minutes).

Why use it

  • Reduce frustration after death
  • Give players more time to recover dropped gear
  • Tune cleanup speed for performance or server balance
  • Great for survival servers and vanilla+ packs

Requirements

  • Fabric Loader
  • Fabric API
