Recovery of deleted character (fixed)
« on: December 16, 2018, 04:48:20 pm »
Is there a way to recover deleted character? During reroll I have initially placed 10k caps in my inventory but later when I was moving other stuff I think I have moved those 10k caps too so reroll ended up with simple delete.

Edit: I recall getting msg about receiving book of achievements so maybe something went wrong during process (there should be warning instead about lack of credits)

BOA requires you to have the money in your active hand, then log out.
There's a delay between log out and character disappearing; When she does disappear, the BOA appears in that spot. It takes a few seconds.
If you didn't do it correctly... You're screwed. Sorry. :/

I have succesfully completed reroll many times before. Chances of not having 10k caps in inventory are slim but since I'm human I'm bound to make mistakes...
It was sufficient to have caps in inventory. I was rerolling lvl 50 character and got proper msg about getting BoA after 3mins (if there were no caps I would get different msg) and I was surprised by not getting BoA on the ground after 3mins.

P.S. After discovering that most endgame content runs in RT I have lost motivation to level up one more char. If it is not possible to recover deleted character I will simply start again in 4th season.

Did you screenshot before and after?

Hmm. No that shouldn't have happened.
Try something before you quit; go back to the tent/base/whatever now, hours (days?) later and search again, and let us know.

I have tried to login this character today... and I've made it. I'm quite sure I have typed right command and got msg about receiving BoA but still I have no idea what happened... except some kind of divine intervention happened (maybe I have lost internet connection and command has not reached server, who knows...).
Anyway I'm saying big Thank You to that divine force and going to try rerolling again. This time with screenshots of each step just in case it happens again.

Very lucky. Perhaps admin recreated/reverted character deletion, although that seems unlikely.

I think I know what happened and it was indeed human error. Command was ok, caps in inv were ok so I did get proper BoA msg but most likely due to fast typing errors I have pressed wrong key in password string after command and game was unable to delete character with bad password.
