API

Add the dependency (e.g. JitPack) and use the builder API via Corpse.fromPlayer() or Corpse.fromLocation():

import com.github.unldenis.corpse.corpse.Corpse;
import com.github.unldenis.corpse.model.CorpseArmor;

// At player location, with their skin and armor
Corpse corpse = Corpse.fromPlayer(player).spawn();

// At a specific location
Corpse corpse = Corpse.fromPlayer(player).location(location).spawn();
Corpse corpse = Corpse.fromLocation(location).name(offlinePlayer.getName()).spawn();

// Custom armor (use CorpseArmor)
CorpseArmor armor = new CorpseArmor().boots(boots).leggings(leggings).chestplate(chestplate).helmet(helmet);
Corpse corpse = Corpse.fromPlayer(player).location(location).armor(armor).spawn();
Corpse corpse = Corpse.fromLocation(location).name(name).armor(armor).spawn();

// Remove a corpse
corpse.destroy();

The builder also supports .textures(List<TextureProperty>) for custom skins. Listen for right‑clicks and attacks on corpses via AsyncCorpseInteractEvent; use getAction() to distinguish interact vs attack.
