Thread: Food attribute modifiers should clear upon player death as originally intended

This is from TC Patch notes:


"Food Buffs: Food attribute modifiers should clear upon player death as originally intended"


My question is: does that mean just the little icon dissapears or do we actually get stomach to empty after a death?

Oh my, I see an increase in sales if the stomach bug has been fixed. I would think it would be this since the modifiers DO disappear upon death already.

Just tested this. The stomach does not empty, but all buffs are cleared.

Was it intended to have the timer carry over? If so, that doesn't make sense, the fact that your stomach doesn't empty on death annoys me greatly

Sigh. This is ridiculous. Why can't they fix this one bug that has been around since the beginning of the game?

Don't know what you are referring to, but this should be the easiest fix. The functionality already exists and works. Doc buffs don't stay around when you die. This can't be THAT hard of a fix :/

zounds is probably referring to the BH bugs that have been around since the beginning of the game.


I doubt having the stomach empty on death would use the same code as the doc buffs. That's just a yes/no flag (whether a stat was doc buffed or not) the stomach filling could be stored/calculated any number of ways: a flat number that gets updated every X seconds or on character sheet refresh (probably the most likely). Some data table of individual foods you've eaten their filling, and the time eaten and the filling is calculated on the fly when needed (overly complicated IMO). Or maybe some goofball setup rational only to someone under a severe overdose of caffeine.


That being said, I do think that having the stomach empty on clone would be the best setup. Maybe that's intended, but they put off fixing that until after they fixed the food buffs reseting when you clone. Otherwise you could drink two brandies, have someone kill you immediately, clone (emptying your stomach), drink two more (adding on top of the previous two) and repeat as much as you wanted, or until your M/F/W went over the maximum integer value for SOE's compiler.

Havent noticed anything about the foods mods sticking after death. But i know there is some prolem with Muon gold, making you get downer if you used it just before death, And also getting +500 Mind when dieing with an muon downer.

Weird. Buffs do not linger after death. It irked me to sit at the Geonosian cave for 30 minutes waiting for my brandy to exit my system after being rezzed. There was no bug there from what I could see. Truly, how hard is it to say If Death Then stomach = 0
