Villa Straylight

If it was that easy, I would guess there would be a way to disable teleporting altogether.

Not entirely true. If the other party disconnects after dying, from the you are dead screen, there is still a pretty good chance of the body disappearing... And even a small chance he will reconnect in fine shape elsewhere.

Why dont they just drop people like 5 feet? They would all get broken bones. That seems more troll-like to me.... Likely it will be fixed in the next ban wave.

Why do these people do this in dayz? I thought that this is what Arma is for??

Is there anything else on the ground? I found that I had to pick up everything else, first. Backpacks seem to do this at times as well.

You can also just use separate accounts in windows, then log each into your own steam accounts to play. That's what we do here (two computers, three players).

I believe that the location typing is something that can be turned "off" (made unviewable) at the server level. I run into this all the time on "hardcore" servers.

NOT appealing.

Yes, there are other posts... it's simple. You need a separate Steam account AND a separate Windows account for each player. You must be logged into both for each player to get them to work separately.

I'm not having any trouble. COmpared to what?

If you are about to log out, look to see if there is a white icon above your other icons on the right. If so, you are in shock, and if you log out then you will reconnect unconscious. http://dayzwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Status_Effects

The game has a steep learning curve. You'll get the hang of it.

Yes, I find that exceedingly strange. In arma, flashlights only function at night...
