If you clone you still have to abide by the food timer.
So if you eat or drink and then get killed and clone, and are needed back in the fight, youare still full.
This doesn't happen with doctor and spice buffs, only food and drink.
Please fix it.

Yep, for some reasons the cloners, go out to your corpse, pump your stomach and put the contents into the clone. Not sure why they do this, or when and ifSOE will outlaw this sick behavior.

Makes sense though, I don't know many people who complain about being hungry just after dying.

Don't forget: entertainer buffs have ALWAYS had to abide by this rule. At least the food buffs don't take 2 hours to go away...

Doc buffs too, IIRC. Cloning resets your stats to normal but any "you are still buffed" timers are still ticking down. Spices probably also fall into this, but I'm pretty sure you don't get the downer if you got deathblowed while tripping.

Doc buffs go away when you die. Any time someone still has a buff on them and want a new one, they ask someone to kill them while waiting in line and I rez them and buff them fine. Maybe the rez kits themselves remove all buffs, but I doubt that. Might need to test that with my second account

:cracks his knuckles:
Okay, the reason is abit scientific, but I'll try to make it so anyone can understand. Food by its very nature contains DNA componets, which stims / chemicals do not. As such your local cloning center can easily pick up the food you digested, however cannot replicate the completely man-made components of Doctors buffs.

Vimes can you look into this? Getting all buffs cleared out when you clone. Making everyone happy.
