Combat Tag

Revision as of 00:37, 21 November 2023 by Tybug (talk | contribs) (add table)

Combat Tag is a mechanic commonly included on civ servers which prevents a player from logging out during combat without consequences. When a player is hit by another player, they are marked (tagged) for some duration of time. Any player that logs out while tagged will leave a vulnerable body behind for a period of time that can be attacked and, in particular, pearled.

Mechanics

Whenever a player takes damage from, or damages, another player, they are marked as combat tagged for a period of time. If a player logs out while tagged, their body will remain on the server for a period of time. They can still take damage, be killed, and be pearled while in this state, just as if they were logged in.

When a player logs into the server, they are also usually automatically combat tagged for a short time.

Players can log out safely (without leaving their body behind) with the /logout command. This command requires a short duration during which the player cannot move or take any other action.
