Item despawning warning

[JustTheVojta]

So, I've got an idea... You could add some warning about item on the ground removing... Me and my friend lost some things to it few times, so it would be useful.

issue is if the server tps is bad the server will have no time to issue warning and wait before acting as lag delays everything even more

I've seen this done on another server, the way they approached the issue was that they had the clear ground entities script run regularly every 5 or 10 minutes or so, with 1 minute warning before it happened, even if no lag was present. This meant that players could anticipate the script, while regularity made sure entities rarely reached the point where they caused lag.

Of course this doesnt do anything to non-ground entities' caused lags.
