Plaristote:
Hi !

I'm trying to start FOnline and there's a lot of things I'm not sure I understand.

My first character die, and apparently he won't ressurect (after 10 minutes he was still dead), so I created another one and noticed you have to wait 10 minutes before connecting to another character, even if you just created it.
I'm also wondering : I think the 10 minute countdown restart EACH TIME you try to connect to your new character. Is this the regular behaviour for that feature ?

Also, with my second character (borned near Vault City), I tried to start shoveling the brahmin shit : first I didn't know how to use the shovel, so I accidently hit a brahmin and get killed. I noticed you can't get a shovel from the same guy twice. So I went to Gecko, shoveled more, then tried to go to Vault City, had a random encounter with an armed ghoul (which killed me in less than 5 seconds, even though I was running as fast as I could), and lost the second shovel. No more shovel for me, apparently.

It would be nice if I could destroy the existing character by the way (I won't use them anymore, they're useless now).

So I tried to create a third character, but I can't play with him : even though I waited 20 minutes between its registration and the first connection attempt, it still tells me that I have to wait 10 minutes before playing it. How come ?

Is this a bug, or am I forbidden to create more characters ?

(I must say it's a very frustrating game, at least at the beginning ^^ ! But I've seen Youtube videos, and the game looks so cool when you leveled your guy ! I approve the free PvP, it's exactly what I'm looking for in a MMORPG !)

Are you sure he's dead? He might have been mortally injured and just knocked below zero hitpoints. He should be alive by now somewhere.

Log in the character, press enter and type ~deleteself *your password*

This.

Ganado:
You die at -20 HP, not 0. On your first character, type: "~cuttheveins" on the typing bar on the client. This will kill you, letting you respawn after 60 seconds. To insure your character always fully logs out, quit the client on the World Map.

The reason you are not able to relog after 10 minutes is because your character is not dead, and won't logout because he is unconscious (<0 HP)

If you want to delete/be able to restart a character, type "~deleteself password" on client. After it gives you a stated me that your character will be deleted, log out and wait 3 minutes for it to be fully deleted.

Make sure your shovel is set to "Use on". You can change this by right-clicking the icon when it is in your hands. (Make sure target is yellow, not red).

Some of the dialog to get the old shovel is messed up, but you can always craft your own shovel. Find pieces of junk in random urban maps, or buy some. Then find "flint" in random desert/mountain tiles, make Primitive Tool out of it, and cut down trees in random encounter maps.

Then, with the junk and wood, make your own shovel! Even though shit-shoveling is about the most unproductive thing in the game.

Plaristote, you can make as many characters as you want (you just can't play with both of them at the same time)

Plaristote:
Thanks a lot =) !
Pretty clear now ! (hehe... cuttheveins...)

One more thing, are those commands registered somewhere ?

Ganado:
Yeah, http://www.fo2238.fodev.net/wiki/Commands
