What's the deal with them? Killed the tree of dead earlier today, and the treasure wasn't there. Eisner is having issues. Also, I killed Zelda today to no avail. Is it the players that are throwing off the timings? Or is this a more complex issue?

I sat in Eisner's treasure room and watched Mithas get the loot after someone killed Eisner ~30 minutes prior. There's nothing wrong with the code.  Heaven doesn't want me and Hell is afraid I'll take over.

So this is a matter of players killing the perm and forgetting to grab the loot?

That, or this is a matter of Mithas purposely altering the treasure-spawning timing.  Heaven doesn't want me and Hell is afraid I'll take over.

People that are doing this shit are assholes. Is this stuff going to be allowed? If so I am going to start doing it as well.

I'd like to put in a technical fix - treasure isn't spawned until the perm is killed. However, it's a matter of priorities, and this isn't high on my list.
If someone wanted to submit a patch for this, we could talk technical details!  Heaven doesn't want me and Hell is afraid I'll take over.

After talking this over with Bodhi, it turns out we had a really great system already in place to solve this issue. This system allows us to insert custom code (we call them "hooks") at any point in the game we choose.
Eisner is going to be a testing perm. He now has a post-death hook that will spawn the treasure in his room, meaning the treasure will never spawn of its own accord. So, if he doesn't die, it means no treasure.
For all you Eisner-haters out there: keep an eye out for any bugs with this new system!  Heaven doesn't want me and Hell is afraid I'll take over.

This seems to work great, so I'm expanding this to other perms I see killed often. This will be the new standard for creating treasure rooms going forward.  Heaven doesn't want me and Hell is afraid I'll take over.
