Respawn confusion?

[schrapple 119]

Hi guys, I thought with the new patch that if you broke your leg you were allowed to respawn and you would keep your stuff? I broke my leg (just crawling on the ground near a tiny town miles from anywhere that would have morphine) so I respawned but lost all my gear.

You are a very confused individual.

Nope, the respawn is like a suicide button. Only press this if you have broken legs and miles from anywhere. It is not to be used as a quick portal to the beach.

Thanks Arch (thanks for being not being a teenage tard as well unlike others), I wasn't sure if that was the case or if I had encountered a bug. Not happy that you can break your leg just by crawling through the grass :( .

Would have been a first for me in three months. Bear trap perhaps?
