Saw this on the code check-ins:

47702 /main/ig pt feedback 2017-05-09 17:14:15 Igor Popov drop items on death

Wow! That sounds pretty awesome! Before this change, when you died, the game destroyed the items it says you lost when you died. How many times have you been loaded up on a valuable resource like Silver and then died? You know exactly where you were when you died. But even though you know the exact location of your death, it doesn't matter because those items are destroyed on death. Now, though, if the game drops the items when you die. Woo hoo! Swim back and recover them!! Love this change! (Assuming it works as expected.)

    Hmm, I wonder if it will be a full inventory dump. I think I would be okay with that, maybe store a few extra tools and equipment around and keep a Beacon on you in dangerous places.

    I'm guessing it won't be, a lot of players might get turned off early in the game losing stuff made with Computer Chips for example if it sinks into an area like the Jelly Shroom Caves and they don't have the resources to make it down there to recover it.

    It'll definitely be a good thing to recover anything lost really, so that's nice to see regardless (for me) of how it's going to work. :)

    If you die the game should CTD and automatically uninstall itself.

    Gitgud peasants.

    No, It deletes XSystem32 l (or whatever the Mac Equivalent is). That'll satisfy those people wanting a harder game.

    Too easy. Have the processor run a tight loop of the HALT_AND_CATCH_FIRE opcode. Then the computer ignites and the player has a real-life emergency. And I bet they don't have a pile of extinguishers, medkits, and a repair tool to hand.

    The real question is: why do you hate life so much?
