Server Roll back?

Unread post by ValerieJean »

Did the server roll back between yesterday and now? I am curious because as I logged into the game and talked to Mystra she said I was dead and put me in the fugue plane. As of yesterday I was around Terri and Aylisara before blundering into Melvor, Rose, and Hoppy.

My first run of death I was raised by Melvor but at the same time it seems someone had attempted to pick me up so I was not ported down to where I died. I contacted the DM chat as one was on and my guess is they missed it. After talking to Myrkul who said oh hey you're alive he ported me to BG in which I ran all the way back to where I was before.

The second time I unluckily dropped Terri raised me and I spawned right there no issue. After that we ventured into the haunted house fought stuff and got treasure to then run back to FAI where I last was. But when I loaded in today that was not the case and I am tagged as dead and in the Fugue Plane.

Can anyone help? As no DMs are on atm, or am I to bite the xp loss bullet?

Thank you ahead for any assistance given!

Update: My net cut out and when I logged back in I spawned right into NW Cloakwood. Unsure if my body was in the Nexus at all but it seems like someone raised me? If so thank you whoever and if not I have no idea what has occurred just hope it's fixed. Hopefully this does not happen to someone else!

I'm glad it worked out for you!

There hadn't been a rollback, no. The death systems just has a few strange issues. One of our oncoming dev staff might want to tackle it to see if it can't be improved though.

Welp, logged in just now and I'm bugged. Idk what the issue is, someone Raised me earlier today when I had the issue but it seems so far after a reset I am claimed dead still and get sent to fugue plane. No DM's on atm. Talking to Myrkul he says im dead and basically wait for raise or take the xp hit. Took the XP hit, maybe that'll fix the bug. Guess we'll see upon next reset.

Same thing happened today. Still saying I am dead when clearly yesterday I said put me back. Anyone have any ideas on how to rectify this at all?

Another 1000xp Lost.

Server reset and again Mystra claims me dead and sends me to the Fugue.

After this DM Key was available and per another player informing me I need killed I asked if she could click kill me and rez the body. I won't know if it works til a reset occurs. Here is to hoping.

The DMs can always wipe the slate clean with a good DM kill. :lol:

I think we have plans to take a look at our death scripts this summer. They've been far from perfect for years now, but are also pretty complicated as I understand it.
