Persistent Hotbar is a Datapack which allows you to play Minecraft without loosing all of your items when you die! Instead, you'll have to pick your 9 most important pieces of loot, because ONLY your hotbar will persistent between deaths. All of your other stuff, including offhand items and armor pieces, will be dropped on the floor for you to recover yourself, just like in vanilla.

This pack is intended to make dying slightly less punishing, while still being a fair mechanic. Enjoy, and choose the items you wish to keep wisely!
