Dummy Player - Combat Logout Protection is a Vintage Story mod by KenigVovan. Dummy Player adds a combat logout safeguard: disconnecting players leave a vulnerable clone with their health, equipment and loot at the fight location.
Why this mod is worth installing
This mod is useful for PvP servers where disconnecting should not be a way to escape defeat. It also suits servers that want logout protection during dangerous encounters with mobs.
What Dummy Player - Combat Logout Protection adds
After the first PvP hit, the attacker and defender receive a temporary combat tag. If a tagged player disconnects, Dummy Player creates a clone in the exact spot with matching health, appearance, clothing and held equipment.
The clone behaves as a real combat target: armor affects incoming damage, other players can kill it, and the player's configured equipment can drop as loot. When the player returns, the result depends on the clone's fate—death is applied if it was killed, while a surviving clone passes its current health and items back.
The mod includes a HUD indicator for the active combat state and separate timing for PvP and mob-related combat tags. Clone lifetime, carried equipment categories and an optional mode that creates clones after any logout can be adjusted for the server's rules.
