Trading while ghost
« on: January 11, 2017, 12:01:59 AM »
Two ghost can trade with one another, but once the ghost give an item, it cannot move anymore. The one who receives the item can still move however.

Tried it two times, and everytime, the one who did the trade got stuck and couldn't do a thing.

To be able to walk again, you need to initiate a trade with another ghost, offer an item to trade, then cancel the trade. This will bring you back to normal and you'll be able to walk and be raised. If any dev needs more info or more explanation, just PM me.

Ghosts PCs should not be trading together anyway. This goes directly against established rules. It is cheating and should not be attempted. I don't think we'll do anything to fix that one.

Well it's an easy remedy once the exploit is carried out. Can you do something to prevent a ghost trading, or create a log of it to follow up later?

Definitely an exploit that should be stopped; Ghosts traditionally can drop things out of their inventory like magic scrolls or rezzing potions for others to use at their discretion, but being able to trade things to other ghosts that they can retain is bad. Ghosts aren't able to pick items up after all.
