dead bodies vanish when they should fall to a lower leve
« on: January 25, 2007, 10:57:00 am »

I killed the mayor of a town on the second level of the mead hall and his body when flying back over the ledge but his body never appeared on the lower level of the mead hall.

Weird, I've had this work before.  I wonder where it went.

Perhaps the fix vanished when it fell to a lower level.

Yesterday I was playing adventurer. I was down in some ruin when a zombie mace lord charged at me. I nimbly evaded by throwing myself into the wall, and *poof* I was teleported to the level above. And no, there wasn't any stairs on that tile.

I was talking to ft about this earlier.  It's possible it flew up through the roof, though he couldn't find it on the edges (you can't see the rest).  I've knocked a body from an alley up to the roof before, but they might be flying through ceilings by accident.

I think the charge evasion stuff lets you move around more freely than it should -- but was that in a pyramid outside?  Or did you fly through a ceiling as well?

I had something like this happen a couple versions ago on a pyramid/tower type structure. I hit a zombie corpse and sent it several squares over the edge off the second floor, but then returned to the ground level and found no body. However, I only checked this out this one time, so I'm not sure if its a recurring problem or not.
