stop dead Player despawn

[ruStanSc 9]

Today i had a fight with my brother against a group of 4 people. After the fight we tried to loot them but the bodies disappeart and we couldnt get any stuff.

 

Pls, let dead player bodies lay for 30min or something like this. So we have the possibility to loot them.

 

Ty :)

 

Edit: May they despawn because the people disconnect or change server?

They added a feature in the last patch that auto kills you if you disconnect while knocked out. you'd think that'd make their bodies stay. i dunno

 

but i am pretty sure bodies don't despawned. I've walked 10km+ to my dead bodies to get my gear back, and they were always there, even if i died 5 more times in the process.

Its pretty random at the moment, some bodies despawn some don't, they are aware of the issue.

Well. Shot a guy, he's body despawned, when i tried to climb down the ladders to go check it, i died. ran back, my body was gone too. (Happened in Berezino)

 

INB4 instant karma.
