    Suggestion: make it so if you drown or die in lava with tombstone the chest goes on the nearest open block

    Reason: died in lava and a tombstone didn't apear :cry:

    Tombstone for me rarely works.

    Even if it is not because of lava (fall dmg, suffocation, drowning) it usually will say something to the effect that "Tombstone could not be created due to not enough space".

    I would love to see tombstone changed to either allow you to keep the items in your inventory once you respawn, or allow you to set a chest specifically for tombstone (like in your town or where ever) for your items to go when you die.

    I have the /back command so this has helped some when tombstone fails, but I have lost items from death when tombstone is specifically made to save your things.

    I'm not a programmer so who knows if any of this is possible with the mod. Tombstone is the one donation feature I wish I never bought, or had gotten something else instead.

    I dont think that it is nessecary, due to the fact that you can just /home or /spawn

    Does regular tombstone work in pvp? It creates a locked chest when it works in mainworld so I already thought it was disabled in a pvp zone. I don't pvp so I've never had the chance to see.

    Tombstone is disabled in regions your are not added to, and all PvP worlds.

    The only PvP aren tombstone works in is a town PvP area you are added to.

    I think ragman's idea might work, maybe we should ask the plugin
    devolper?

    Because right now as it seems, i don't really see the benefits of TombStones really. :/

    I know an extremely miniscule amount about coding and stuff. But I think I have a solution for everyone possibly. Create a command that drops all of youritems on the floor. Now make it so that all donators keep items on death. Now block the aforementioned command in all areas except pvp, mining, and nether. Then, make it so that on death users /sudo dropitems. If in the main world oraether its blocked, elswhere the command runs succesfully and items are dropped. :D
