I have a habit of losing my stuff far from start. I don't mind that I have to travel to get it, or even if I have to build up a tech base to protect myself while I travel. But I don't have hours-long blocks of time to try to do it in the same session. Is there a mod that will either stop stuff from despawning on death or put it in a chest?

Edit: To accomplish this run TerrariaServer.exe from the Terraria folder to have a server you can log out of. Then log in to your server (for me it came up automatically as an option) via multiplayer-->join via IP. You need to have set up your firewall to allow access. Using "host and serve" attempts to set up a Windows firewall, so you may want to do that first.

So if it's on a server it won't delete dropped items?

Last time I played it, but that was freaking years ago.

Thanks! On the offhand chance that you know, I'm trying to host my own game. I've set up my firewall to allow the connection. When I try to connect to my server at 127.0.0.1, it won't work. (stuck at "connecting to 127.0.0.1/7777")What do I need to do?

Edit: I figured it out. "host and play" runs a server that closes every time the character logs out. You need to run TerrariaServer.exe from the Terraria folder to have a server you can log out of and it keeps running.

Edit: It worked!! I can't believe this wasn't on any of the pages I searched. Thank you!
