Since have some free time, I was planning on playing with Starbound's features a bit. Problem is that I'm a dumb code monkey, so I would need help. Do you know any way to... 1: Make the character not disappear after death 2: Make the character go into sleeping animation after death 3: Make the character's arms and legs ragdoll after death. My idea is to make the character sleep forevermore after it's killed. If you can help please, bear in mind that my knowledge of coding is minimum. Thanks for the help!
Now I'm no programmer, but maybe generate some temporary (invisible) bed and make the character lay down on it? Or just rotate the character sprite so it looks like they lie down? Hope this thing takes off, I'd sure use it.
So, you want that the player on death don't trigger the default fade out animation of death but instead that fly away and fall death like in any 3D game(like in skyrim for example)? The ability of the violum broadsword make your character fly while rotating you can check that lua code, at the start of the game when you begin your "space adventure" in the ship, you begin sleeping on the teleporter so maybe it can be possible to do.
