Small 'History' tweak


Recommended Posts

One improvement I'd like to see for the 'History' self-leaderboard is to include non-deaths when a server goes down.

Basically I survived 68 days on a server to die to Bearger.  I logged out (it was 5am.)  The server was still going the next day so I logged in and survived to 100 days on that character.  But because I logged out alive (and the server later closed down), my character is still listed as only having died at 68 days.  And it's a little buggier than that because he's also listed as dying at 68 days to a Hound (the Hound warning had just started when I logged, so perhaps my character was left in-game long enough to actually die to them?)

So it'd be nice if only one 100-day entry was made for that character.  Cause of death would be "World Ended" or something wittier in typical Don't Starve style (or I guess it could still be Hounds in my case, if that's actually what killed me while my character was left in-world.)

Granted, it's a pretty minor thing and admittedly the dev time is probably better spent elsewhere.

Of course there are much larger ways History could be turned into more of a full-fledged leaderboard, with Friend, Seasonal, and Global leaderboards rating players' longest survival streaks among "pure" servers (ie servers whose difficulty is at least Default, including no gameplay-altering mods.)
