Bishop Body Balming seemingly not working

Post by FooLing »

I have a balming cleric so I haven't really paid attention to when this started (or if it was always like this since the mod came on line again - though I vaguely recall it working "properly" initially once I built up a bit of coin), but I've noticed for at least a half-dozen different attempts over at least what seems like two or three months now, that when you use a pc corpse's body on a bishop he does nothing (I vaguely recall trying this at the temples in Benzor, Brosna, and Faukault).

Back in the day, it used to be that when you did this, it would be equivalent to a cleric casting/using a balm of true resurrection on a corpse. The xp cost would be the same, and the gold would be automatically deducted, all without any dialog interaction (both the gold and the xp cost a lesser amount than for the dialog interaction of raising a soul out of fugue through the bishop - though the Revenge server is the exact opposite, but this isn't about Revenge).

There is absolutely no reaction from the bishop (or the corpse).

Has anyone else noticed this?

It wasn't like that a few months ago. The body bishop res worked fine when my PC finally died in Decemberish.

He definitely is not working. Tom tried twice with my fighter. Bishop did not take the gold, nor did he rez. This is for a body rez, where you "use" the body on the Bishop.

Trying to find a fix, if we can't fix him we'll figure out another method for you guys. I know this is important and didn't want you to think we weren't working on it.
