HowTheyDied

Every death gets explained. No more "what happened to you?" - and no more lying about it.

When the level ends, Taxman replaces his usual emoji gibberish on the truck screen with a report of every death this run: who died, what killed them and how embarrassing it was, with level and timestamp. The list pages through automatically and is shown again in the shop, so everyone can see how the others died - even the ones who don't want to talk about it.

R.I.P. 4 deaths this run (1/2)
[L1 03:12] Bob got gnomed.
[L2 01:47] Alice was one-shotted by Huntsman. Full health, by the way.
[L2 05:30] Bob was beaten to death with a Frying Pan by Alice.

What it knows

• Monsters - every monster has its own lines, plus extra ones for one-shots.
• Teammates - shot, blown up, bonked with an item or hit by something they threw, with their name.
• Objects - crushed by a falling or thrown valuable, with the item's name.
• Explosions, falls, wall slams, the pit, self-destruct, getting left behind by the truck.
• Other KingLir mods - dragged into the fog by the FogMod tentacle, or "ate the barrel" in LostCause.

More than 340 lines. Not exactly family-friendly.
