GMCP Death Message

Ashmer

Hi!

I read that there's now a message sent via gmcp upon death, but I can't find it documented and no one I've asked knows about it.

Does anyone have the string for the GMCP death message?

Riluo

Not aware of this?

Oh, I must have it wrong. I think I read this:

Continuing with our theme of rewriting all the horrible and ugly that exists in our codebase, I've gone and completely
rewritten all the code handling player death.

This is largely a backend change so you shouldn't notice too much different except maybe messages happening in a
different order. That said, there have been some changes as follows:
- Fixed a bug with vampires losing full experience on starburst deaths.
- You'll no longer lose defences when dying in the arena.
- You can see deathsights if you're in the same room as the victim now (killer and victim still don't).
- Abilities like starburst/rebirth that bring you back to life now have their own unique deathsight message.
- There's now a GMCP message sent along with deathsight messages.

As usual, file a bug if anything is amiss.

Like you receive a GMCP message when you die.

I'm sure I'll be able to find it in the gmcp table after someone dies. Nevermiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind.

it might show up in the new gmcp.Char.Vitals.charstats.. as never seen that before.. Normally Aetolia doesn't hide its varaibles in GMCP like Imperian does

Personally never heard of seen it tho

Yeah, it's sent as gmcp.Deathsight when someone dies. Really fucking cool.
