Five Minute Death Swap

Quickstart

1. Install the .mcaddon file — both the behavior and resource packs are bundled together.
2. Apply them to a multiplayer world in Bedrock Edition (Minecraft 1.21.93+).
3. Have at least two players join the world. The moment a second player comes online, a chat message announces the game has started and a five-minute countdown begins on everyone's action bar.
4. Survive, set traps, and brace yourself — every five minutes everyone is teleported into someone else's exact position.

No commands, no configuration, and no extra setup required.

Overview

Five Minute Death Swap is a competitive multiplayer game mode that runs automatically in any multiplayer world. Every five minutes, all online players are shuffled and teleported into each other's saved positions — including the exact dimension (Overworld, Nether, or End) and the direction they were facing. The result is a frantic game of survival, trap-setting, and positioning warfare.

How It Works

Starting the Game

• The mod activates as soon as the world loads.
• The five-minute timer only starts once two or more players are online simultaneously.
• While waiting for a second player, everyone sees a yellow action-bar message: "Death Swap: waiting for at least 2 players" and the timer resets.
• When the player count reaches two or more, a green chat message announces: "Five Minute Death Swap started! Switches happen every 5 minutes."

The Countdown

• A live action-bar countdown (e.g., Death Swap in 4:59) updates every second for all players.
• When 5 seconds remain, an audible chime plays to warn everyone a swap is imminent.

The Swap

• At the zero mark, all players are randomly shuffled into a rotation so that no one stays in place.
• Each player is teleported to another player's exact coordinates, dimension, and facing direction — captured at the moment the swap triggers.
• After every swap, a chat summary shows exactly who went where, for example:

  Death Swap! Steve → Alex, Alex → Notch, Notch → Steve

• The five-minute timer immediately resets and the next round begins.

Progression And Strategy

• Set traps before the swap. You know roughly where you'll be sent (someone else's base), so build hazards at your own location to punish whoever lands there.
• Watch the timer. The action bar countdown is always visible. Use the final seconds to position yourself somewhere dangerous for your opponent — over a lava pool, at the edge of a cliff, or mid-combat with a mob.
• Survive the landing. You inherit the other player's exact position and dimension. If they were in the Nether or deep underground, you'll need to adapt fast.
• More players = more chaos. With three or more players, the shuffle rotation is unpredictable, making it harder to target a specific opponent.
• Resource denial works. If you're ahead on gear, spend your five minutes stripping your base of resources so the incoming player has nothing useful to grab.
