lars66123 5 Posted February 6, 2014 Hey guys, So since the last patch my respawn button isn't working anymore. I've tried to join different servers but when I load into a server it says "you are dead" and my respawn button isn't clickable. Please help!

BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) The "Respawn" button never worked to begin with. You would click it, then wait hours for nothing to happen. Press "Exit" and change server instead. Edited February 6, 2014 by BadAsh 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fluxley 2228 Posted February 6, 2014 Its a known issue, will be fixed in the next update.All you can do until then is try joining servers on a different hive, The "Respawn" button never worked to begin with. You would click it, then wait hours for nothing to happen. Press "Exit" and change server instead. its a new issue, even leaving the server and rejoining doesn't allow some to respawn. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are working on it now, should be in experimental by the end of the week and stable by wednesday. Can't respawn : "you are dead" on joining any server by Alastor_Daemonin dayz [–]rocket2guns 7 points8 hours agoThe issue is now known, and being fixed in internal branch tomorrow. Expect I might have in experimental by the end of the week, perhaps we could squeeze in a hotfix for the next maintenance period on Wednesday on stable.The issue relates to the order of processing of connection/disconnection. It only really affects a server under full load. During this time, when a player clicks respawn - their "death" notification is occuring, then the player is attempted to be saved. However, the save function still has it's failsafe enabled - it goes "oh, no alive character let me create one". It's also disabled from setting death state, as a precaution (only a specific method is allowed to record death). So what happens is your old character dies, and a new clone gets made - probably with no blood and no health but alive == 1.It's a good example of the very complex logic issues that we have and are trying to untangle. As we hotfix and/or fix issues we can inadvertently create further issues. It didn't appear in higher FPS because the requests occurred in a dependable order so the character was saved prior to being killed (kill messages have priority over all messages in the db client).source http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/1x2vzq/cant_respawn_you_are_dead_on_joining_any_server/cf82iij?context=3 Edited February 6, 2014 by Fluxley Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

illville502 44 Posted February 6, 2014 I'm currently stuck in the You are dead screen after hitting the respawn button. Whenever I get back into the game, I promise never to even think about clicking on that fucking button ever again. Gotta love Alpha guys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
