Accidentally clicked on empty corpse

I died twice in Chardok while recovering corpse. I managed to pull all 3 corpses to entrance for rez but I accidentally clicked on empty corpse and clicked done. (I thought I clicked on Mob's corpse). So one of the corpse has no way to recover xp. I know it's going to be a long shot but is there anyway I can recover the lost corpse?

I wish i was smart enough not to click on done even after I clicked on empty corpse. so someone else still can cast rez on it before it expired :(

unfortunately the xp from your empty corpse is gone for good

shit happens, you'll get the xp back

look at it this way, you'll have that much more xp-time worth of loot farmed

if you do that again either /q out while the corpse is still open, or /load d (loadskin default) to reload your UI, both will force you off the corpse without actually looting it

good to know, I never knew that

20+ years of EQ and theres always something new to learn

ive done this at least a couple dozen times myself

think of it as an opportunity to acquire more plat on the road to 60 / buffer xp

If eqemu is comparable, the following is why :

https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob...one/corpse.cpp

Code:

void Corpse::EndLoot(Client* client, const EQApplicationPacket* app) {

        auto outapp = new EQApplicationPacket;

        outapp->SetOpcode(OP_LootComplete);

        outapp->size = 0;

        client->QueuePacket(outapp);

        safe_delete(outapp);



        being_looted_by = 0xFFFFFFFF;

        if (IsEmpty())

                Delete();

        else

                Save();

}

Code:

void Corpse::Delete() {

        if (IsPlayerCorpse() && corpse_db_id != 0)

                database.DeleteCharacterCorpse(corpse_db_id);



        corpse_db_id = 0;

        player_corpse_depop = true;

}

https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob...one/zonedb.cpp

Code:

bool ZoneDatabase::DeleteCharacterCorpse(uint32 db_id) {

        std::string query = StringFormat("DELETE FROM `character_corpses` WHERE `id` = %d", db_id);

        auto results = QueryDatabase(query);

        if (results.Success() && results.RowsAffected() != 0)

                return true;



        return false;

}

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/delete.html

Code:

The DELETE statement deletes rows from tbl_name and returns the number of deleted rows.

The only options would be to restore from backup, or to give you equal xp to another present corpse. I agree with everyone, it's gone for good.

That's good idea. it sound better than holding corpse for hours lol thanks!

This looks Greek to me but I can see where the depop came from. It's pain to lose 9% at 59 but I just suck it up I guess!
