📌 About

This Minecraft plugin makes players drop their head upon death. Configure head drops, glowing effects, particles, broadcast messages, per-player statistics, and much more, all from a single config.yml

Runs natively on Spigot, Paper, Purpur and Folia, with no extra dependencies

💡 Features

• PvP / PvE / All Drop Modes

Choose when heads drop : on any death, only player kills (pvp), or only environmental deaths (pve)

• Custom Drop Chance

Configure the exact probability of a head dropping (0% → 100%)

• Per-Player Drop Limit

Optionally cap how many heads a single player can ever drop (great for farm prevention). Reset any player with a command

• World Blacklist

Disable head drops entirely in specific worlds

• Invisibility Protection

Optionally prevent head drops when the dying player is invisible

• Drop as Item or Place on the Ground

Choose whether heads drop as a normal item, or are placed directly on the ground as a head block, facing the direction the player was looking. When placing on the ground, HeadDrop searches nearby for a free, supported spot (with a configurable fallback to a normal drop if none is found)

• Custom Head Item
• Editable display name
• Single-line or multi-line lore
• 10 placeholders (player, killer, weapon, world, coordinates, XP, death cause, date & time…)
• Configurable date format and timezone
• Optional despawn timer
• Option to block renaming in anvils (only for plugin heads)
• Optional name & lore persistence : heads keep their identity even after being placed, mined, or blown up (TNT, creepers, end crystals…)

• Hex & Legacy Colors

Every text option (head name, lore, broadcast message) supports both legacy color codes (&a) and hex colors (&#FF00AA), so you're no longer limited to the 16 vanilla colors

• Broadcast Messages

Toggle a global chat message whenever a head drops, with full placeholder and color-code support

• Optional Effects
• Visual lightning bolt (no damage)
• Custom sound on drop
• Particles with 7 shapes (upward, circle, burst, cycle, pulse, wave, spiral) and a configurable duration (or infinite)
• Colored glowing outline (16 colors, hex accepted and matched to the closest one, timed or infinite)

• Statistics System

An in-game GUI (/head stats) showing every player's head-drop count and last drop time, with :

• Global server stats (total heads, unique players, most recent & oldest drop)
• Sorting by count, last drop, or name (ascending / descending)
• Single-player view and live player skins
• Persistent storage that survives restarts

• Give Command

Hand out any player's head by username with /head give, styled with the exact same name and lore as a dropped head

• Automatic Config Migration

Updating the plugin never breaks your config : on startup, an outdated config.yml is automatically backed up and upgraded to the new version, keeping every setting you've already configured

• Built-in Update Checker

Get notified in the console when a new version is released on Modrinth

All these features can be fully configured in the config.yml

Default behavior : If you don't modify the config, head drops function just like vanilla : no effects, no broadcasts, no special visuals

🛠️ Setup

• Download the version of the plugin that matches your Minecraft server
• Place the .jar file in your plugins folder
• Restart your server to activate the plugin

Most settings can be customized in the config.yml file, make sure to review it for full configuration options

⚙️ Config

📊 Metrics

This plugin collects anonymous usage data (player and server counts, server software and version…) through two open statistics services : FastStats and bStats

FastStats is privacy-first : it does not store IP addresses or any data that could identify you, and is fully GDPR-compliant. You can see the live numbers on the public project page

bStats is open-source and equally anonymous. If you prefer to disable it, open /plugins/bStats/config.yml and set enabled to false
