PlayerHeadDrops

When a player dies, their head drops — complete with their skin. Simple, lightweight, and highly configurable.


Features

  • Skin-accurate heads — Uses embedded texture data so the skin is preserved even after server restarts
  • Configurable drop chance — From 0% to 100%, or anything in between
  • One-time drop mode — A player's head can only drop once, ever. Data persists across restarts
  • PvP-only mode — Heads drop only when a player is killed by another player
  • Drop to inventory — Send the head directly to the killer's inventory instead of the ground
  • Server-wide announcements — Broadcast a custom message when a head drops (supports color codes)
  • Fully customizable head name — Change format, color, and italic style from the config
