Player Safety Net 1.0.3

Features:

• Saves corpses, dropped item bags, and Bradley / Patrol Helicopter debris from spawning under places where they shouldn't.
• Prevents players from dropping held item and/or backpack when they die where they shouldn't.

Why:

I started developing this in response to player reports of being unable to retrieve their loot after being fatally thrown from horses into cliffs, under terrain onto junkpiles, etc.

Since then, I've seen many reports from other server owners of corpses / loot bags falling out of the world when they shouldn't, so I decided to clean it up and release it to help the community.

Details:

Handles players falling out of the bottom of the world, but also corpses, body bags, and loot bags spawning under cliffs onto terrain or other cliffs, under terrain onto junkpiles, etc.

Simulates bouncing an entity off of the nearest ceiling/sky and dropping it back down; if the result is higher than its starting location, it gets elevated ("bounced").

Handles obscure cases like respecting terrain ignore triggers, ignoring sticky ceiling prefabs, etc.

Permissions:

• playersafetynet.report permission is required to use psn.report command from player F1 console.

Commands:

psn.report in player F1 console (with permission) or server console/RCON produces a table of statistics summarizing the plugin's activity:
