Cantr II Discussion Forum

I've noticed something strange and feel like I'm going crazy...

Lately, a lot of dead bodies just...haven't existed.....

I saw one person get killed by an animal....no body.
I saw one person get killed in a darter...no body.
And now, I'm PRETTY sure someone died in a building yet....no body.

errrrrmmmmm????? *scratches head*

If they were very young people their bodies dissappear after death.

oh...I never knew that...how....odd.

How young is very young though? Only one of them is what I would have considered very young...

1 cantr year I believe.

This is very strange to me then....

Quite a while back I chased someone down who had stolen a cart and some maps, and some carrots. She was killed less than four rl days later. Yet my charrie couldn't get on the cart even while holding hardly anything. I assumed it was due to a body being in the cart...I mean....I don't think the thief took that many carrots....ROFL

Now I'm deadly curious....O.o

They have to be young, but also need to be inactive, I believe, for the body to disappear.

ah...okay..that would make a bit more sense then....LOL! Thanks! I'm just glad to know I haven't gone crazy!!!

Not inactive but a newbie. This one time there was a newspawn maybe two days old, who was causing all sorts of trouble, coming onto my character (both of them male), so I dragged him inside and played along. Then he got ashamed of trying to troll and unsubbed to get a clean start. The body vanished but the guy had been very active on the two days he lived, so it's not related to inactivity.

People who die in a vehicle that has no room for a second person to enter have to be moved out by the staff. There's a sticky topic for it.

Ooooh okay..that makes even more sense! LOL

And I know...I just didn't have time to get the cart myself yet, and thus haven't posted about it.

Well, I just cleared all blockages, and you're cart wasn't on the list.

I haven't complained about it officially yet...I'm not ready to go reclaim it with my charrie yet.

But why?

I have to admit I'm curious as well....Doesn't seem to make much sense.

Now that I've looked through that thread, I'm not sure if it really answers any questions. There are a lot of other threads about this, though.

Back when there were 3X as many players, newspawn bodies were a problem. Towns were getting buried in them.
