− | + | Deathpall will fall over the map tile for around 1-2 days, and resurrect any non-[[mechanoid]] [[corpse]]s which are not indoors and under a [[roof]] as [[Shambler]]s. This includes corpses that have already risen as Shamblers and have died from metabolic exhaustion. Corpses will not reanimate during a Deathpall if they are burnt or otherwise destroyed. | |
− | + | Deathpall can reanimate any and all corpses, including dessicated corpses and corpses missing vital [[body part]]s or organs (such as the head, torso or [[heart]]). Reanimated corpses will regenerate vital body parts, but non-vital body parts such as eyes/arms/etc will stay damaged/destroyed. | |

A corpse simply being under a roof ''will not'' prevent it from reanimating during a death pall. To prevent reanimation, a corpse must be under a roof ''and'' inside a fully enclosed room. Corpses that are under a roof outdoors, or are not under a roof indoors will still reanimate. The room containing the corpse does not have to be entirely roofed - reanimation will not occur as long as it is enclosed and the corpse itself is under a roof tile. | A corpse simply being under a roof ''will not'' prevent it from reanimating during a death pall.
