[0.15.5] Start item duplication on death

Post by mexmer »

Just checked functionality of lootable corpses after death, and seems there is problem with item duplication.

while for base scenario, where you start with 10 amo, some steel plates and pistol might not be an issue, for custom scenarios, where players might get different items, or where you might want have scenario to have limited items ... this is quite issue.

not sure, what is good solution here. imo not adding start items to respawned player, if there is lootable corpse ... or something?

i doubt someone will repeateadly die, to get "huge" amount of iron plates or free ammo, but still.

before lootable corpses were a thing, my mod skipped base game start items upon saving inventory to lootable boxes, that can be also solution for this.

Thanks for the report,

This will be something custom scenarios will have to deal with themselves
