Remove Experience Penalties After Death in 7 Days to Die

You can completely remove the experience loss when dying in 7 Days to Die by setting the XP penalty to 0. The easiest way to do this is by installing the No XP Penalty On Death mod.

This mod adjusts the in-game variable ExpDeficitPerDeathPercentage for the player entity, changing it from the default 0.25 (25%) to 0, which disables XP loss on death.
