I just, died?... How

Hehe, I’m sorry jane, the steel jerrycan was the only thing holding him together at the end. Once he dropped it, well…

It told you it woudn’t hold water.

It told you it wouldn’t hold water.

HS1342:

He was killed in a field.

Note the “he was KILLED in a field”.

My legist skillz tell me that the zombie pheromones and the Xanax got mad at him and decided to repeteadly bash his head with his own steel jerrycan, which he dropped minutes before being brutally murdered

HS1342:

1:52 PM You put your steel jerrycan of water in the RV’s trunk.

That’s it, case solved Sherlock.

Veredict: zombie pheromones and Xanax - GUILTY!

Brilliant, Watson, just brilliant!.. I couldn’t help but wonder though; who exactly will carry out the punishment dictated in the verdict on the guilty party?

We could always leave them to those rather bad-smelling lost lads in the street but they don’t particularly seem enthusiastic.

HS1342 · 2013-09-28T21:04:32.000Z

So it was the xanax and the zombie pheromones all along…

Yet I can’t shake off the feeling that we’ve missed some detail…

I say we rub the zombie pheromones all over our bodies, consume ALL the Xanax and then go take a rest and smoke some weed, we’ve earned it Sherlock.

HS1342 · 2013-09-28T21:27:00.000Z

But Sherlock, what about that strange “h”?
It could surely be the head of this crime! I do not believe that the pheromones or the Xanax had the brains or guts to figure this all out by themselves!

HS1342 · 2013-09-28T21:32:03.000Z

[Ok, but seriously.
What happened?
If no one knows, I’ll just carve “Murdered by forces unknown” on his tombstone. No more reason to dwell upon his death.]

I’m afraid the sex with the moose was just too much excitement for you… and welll… Poor Ollie just couldn’t handle it Jim.

He didn’t make it…

How could i miss that? You’re right sir, that “h” was certainly involved in the crime!

[quote=“HS1342, post:16, topic:3274”] 1:52 PM You don’t have item ‘h’!
1:52 PM You don’t have item ‘h’! x2[/quote]
Judging from the fact that the mysterious “h” appeared in the same minute as the one the murder occurred i suppose it was also involved in the cowardly attack that took place inside of the RV.

HS1342:

1:52 PM Moving past this door is slow!

The murderer was actually “h”, he was inside of the RV waiting for the opportunity to attack. His obvious motivation is jealousy, he was jealous of the other letters of the alphabet because he was the only one left out of Olle Nilsson’s friends list!
He was assisted in the crime by the zombie pheromones and the Xanax, who were also mad at him due to his futile attempts of pouring water INSIDE of them!

Final veredict:
zombie pheromones and Xanax - guilty - accomplices to “h”;
“h” - guilty - first degree murder.

Case solved.

Judging by the log, I suspect you didn’t pay attention and broke your spine carrying so much. I’ve gotten down to a : on torso health simply because I tried to carry a steel frame more than 1-2 tiles.

Or, you pressed SHIFT+Q instead of SHIFT+S to save, which made you Commit Suicide.

Derschlact · 2013-09-28T22:10:57.000Z

When you press Q to suicide, the world saves. That explains the saving. Then you die.
Case solved.

You can’t die from being overburdened in 0.8, eventually you just fall to the ground and can’t move anymore.

Looks like a case of accidental suicide to me, I dunno what else it could be.

Gravastar · 2013-09-29T02:47:02.000Z

I’d say that all things considered, SHIFT+Q is the most likely cause of death. I think suicide doesn’t produce any messages in your log.

HS1342 · 2013-09-29T06:49:42.000Z

Ok, “accidental suicide” it is…

Except he didn’t post his entire memorial file, he just posted “Final Messages”, and suicide only shows up in the “Game History” section, so it’s still inconclusive either way.

Heh, well that was a good laugh, at the expense of old Ollie Nelson of course.

Guess you’ll be ridding yourself of that binded suicide key, HS?

Murphy · 2013-09-30T00:52:27.000Z

Sometimes the game gets letters wrong and you can’t address an item properly. The solution is to drop it and pick it up again (the drop menu will have a different letter than the use menu).

Labtop_215 · 2013-09-30T01:04:51.000Z

I’ve done that before. Pressed Q instead of S and didn’t read the prompt.

Since then, I’ve basically unbound the suicide key from the prompt because I’ve never really ever needed it anyway, and it’s just an accident waiting to happen. Besides, if I really wanted to do that ingame for some role playing reason, I’d do it with a bit more dramatic flare.

Drive into something at like 500 km/h
Explode a gas pump with a flame thrower
Throw myself at the zombie horde
Drink acid on Sunday
You get the idea.

I also unbound the use wielded item key for the similar reasons. Drinking bleach or ammonia when I’d rather use it to make mutagens and purifiers just sucks the big one.
