Offline Death Rez

Post by The Kriv » Mon Sep 24, 2018 11:29 pm

Many a playercorpse has been dragged to a shrine for IC prayer rez, only for it not to work because the player of that character has gone offline.

Would it be feasible to allow a corpse belonging to an offline player to -still- be rezzed?

Maybe in a way where when the successful rez activates the same visual animation of the skeleton thingy lifting off the death-corpse...and the death-corpse fading away... and then when the player logs that character back in, the character will spawn at whatever location the rez was successfully invoked...

While possible, this would require expanding our database yet further, and I don't think that would be wise in this case.

If death penalties were as they were a few years back, perhaps it would be worth it, thankfully we've no plans to return to that system.
