Headdrops

1.13/1.14/1.15/1.16 Version available.

What it does

Makes players drop their own head if they are killed by another player.

The head will drop at the location the player was killed at.


If you want the player to always drop their head, no matter who killed them, use v2.0.0 instead.


How to set up

Version 2.0 (1.14) and above:

Download the zip file and place it into your world/datapacks folder. If the world is already running, run reload. That's all you need to do.

Version 1.0 (1.13):

After the datapack has been added to your world, it still needs some manual editing for it to work with your own skulls.
Open up the file data/headdrop/functions/drop.mcfunction and add one of the following lines for each of your players, obviously replacing Playername with the actual name of the player:

execute at @a[scores={headDeath=1..},name=Playername] run summon item ~ ~ ~ {Item:{id:player_head,Count:1,tag:{SkullOwner:Playername}}}


Additional Info

Skulls that are dropped like this won't stack with the ones that have been placed and broken again, because the game converts the name of the SkullOwner into the texture.
