Bones

#1 Post by Final Master »

I thought it might be nice to have a bones style system upon final character death; detailing what killed you [each time you died if applicable], how it killed you; the last ~50 lines of game log so you can scroll through it and read what was going on when you died, the cool little tombstone ascii art with " Here Rests FOOOOOO " - with what date the character was started and died [in game].

I would also like it if you could still use the chat while viewing the bones file. I dislike that when I die, I cannot continue to chat, and that of the 2 options I have other than character dump; it removes previous chat from the log.

Thank you

I like it. I would also like to have a "graveyard" added to store all of your dead characters, (sorted by level/main quest progression?) and allow you to see all of that information, including character dump, and death screenshot (if applicable).

I almost forgot I wanted this. We have some of the functionality listed here, but I like lukep's idea of a sortable bones file in game to check out your dead characters.
