I understand what "early exploratory stages" mentioned in the news post mean but nevertheless I believe it makes sense to revive this thread now that it's known work on Plus will be continued. I'd like to draw some attention of the new JJ2+ team to a bird death bug. When a client dies as a bird, all objects in the level (including e.g. CTF bases) get locally destroyed. Killing the player another time in their rabbit form restores the objects with an exception of those which have generators on them. Generated objects are only restored when they're meant to re-spawn, which means they have to be taken/destroyed by another player first. This can obviously cause a lot of trouble in concept levels revolving around birds. When or if you get around to fixing it I suppose it makes more sense to try and get rid of the first of these problems, that is, all objects getting destroyed on death. I can promise I will make very good use of such patch if it's implemented in JJ2+.
