Reset double prompt for -remake_character

Post by Itikar » Tue Nov 17, 2020 1:21 am

I sent via tell the correct command for remake to a character who was doing that, and inadvertedly triggered the first entry of the prompt.

Is there a way to go back to the situation where the prompt is restored?

I tried on PGCC to input it and relogging, and then input it again, and it remembered it and deleted the character there.

Will a server reset fix this?

I feel like I took away the safety pin from a grenade. *shudder*

I wouldn't rely on my saying this but I think it clears when the server resets. I am pretty sure I've entered -delete_character, changed my mind, then later gone through with it and had to enter it twice again days later.

Thank you anyway! :)

In any case, I am not trying it again anytime soon. I am just afraid that if I make another mistake like that the character will poof.

Logic would imply that if a server resets clears stuff like the -alwayswalk toggle and the language toggle, as well as the spells and other things, it will probably reset this as well.

But to be sure, I just made a test goblin that will be sacrificed to prove this point. I created him tonight and hit remake once, and then left him there. I will then repeat the operation after next reset. This experiment has been approved by the Andunorian ethical committee.

You should be able to move to another server to start the process over.

The "safety pin" is reattached on server reset!
