  • Added one-command crash recovery — approve a whole crash at once, players claim with /recover

DeathGuard v2.05
  • Fixed an item duplication exploit when players pulled items from their corpse with building-mod tools
  • Fixed death bags with spoiling food wrongly blocking the owner's recovery
  • Fixed Discord death notifications being dropped during bursts of deaths

---
DeathGuard v2.04
* Fixed an item duplication exploit where players could pull items out of their own death bag with a mod tool (such as the Cyber's Structures OmniTool) and then still recover the full snapshot, ending up with duplicates. Recovery now correctly detects the items were already taken and blocks the duplicate, while admins can still force a recovery when needed


---
DeathGuard v2.03
* Fixed server crash when a player fell into a kill-volume or out of the world
