477, Knowing where you die
Posted by Malakhi on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
How about if, whenever a character dies (or alternatively, whenever a character dies while blinded) the character gets an echo telling them the room name or area name where they died.

It would certainly make things easier finding your corpse and avoid the questionable post-PK tells asking where the deed was done. On a memory lane note, I remember one time Sacer, as the EEC, summoned my level 25 AP and Pwk'd him to add "creepy atmosphere" to a conversation he was having with Avendella and I had no idea how to get to the corpse or who to ask where it was.

That's the price you pay. Pay someone to locate your corpse, talk to your enemy, etc. You don't just get a free pass because you died (especially if you were blind, teleported, etc.)
