Modified by @kittycraft0 on 7/12/2025 to add inventory return upon chest timer expiration. This is a fork of The_It_G's DeadChest plugin. It adds an automatic item return feature based on a player's online time. For the original plugin, please see the official page. All credit for the core functionality goes to the original author.

To generate the .jar file use
./gradlew shadowJar
The jar file will be generated on /build/libs
To simplify testing of the plugin you can configure on your gradle.properties the following configuration
