'''Dying''' in Block Factory costs you a walk, not your items. Everything you carried waits for you in a '''Death Chest''' where you fell, and you wake up again in a cryo capsule.

== The Death Chest ==
[[File:BlockFactory_Death_Chest.png|48px]]

When you die, your whole inventory goes into a Death Chest at the spot where you died:
* Hotbar, main inventory, armor and utility slots. Weapons keep their loaded ammunition.
* Nothing drops on the ground, and items lose no durability.
* The chest is placed on the nearest free spot within 2 blocks of where you died, preferably on solid ground.
* If there is no free spot at all, you simply keep your items.
* With an empty inventory, or in Creative mode, no chest is placed.

|-
| Creatures and raids || Cannot damage it

|-

Open it with Use and take your things back.

=== Who can open it ===
The chest belongs to no player. It counts as part of the world team, so the normal team rule applies (see [[BlockFactory:Teams and Raids|Teams and Raids]]): every player '''without''' a team can open it, and in the current version members of a founded team get the message that it belongs to another team. In a world without teams, other players can empty your chest, so go back quickly.

== Respawn ==
Where you wake up depends on whether your team has a powered '''Cryo Capsule''':
# '''A powered Cryo Capsule of your team''' (the nearest one). You get the message "''You wake up in a cryo capsule.''"
# '''Otherwise the bunker''': the world spawn lies at the first cryo capsule in the bunker.

There are no beds.

=== Cryo Capsule ===
{{BlockFactory Building
| name = Cryo Capsule
| image = BlockFactory_Cryo_Capsule.png
| epoch = 2
| size = 1 × 2
| energy = Electric
| power = 100 kW
| health = 250
| research = Cryonics
}}
The Cryo Capsule is unlocked by the [[BlockFactory:Research|research]] '''Cryonics''' (2 × Knowledge Scroll II). It is crafted by hand or in a [[BlockFactory:Fabricators|Fabricator]] from 10 Steel Plate, 5 Glass and 5 Electronic Circuit (5 s).

* It needs a constant 100 kW from the [[BlockFactory:Power|power grid]]. Without power it is iced over and does not count as a respawn point.
* Only capsules of your own team work for you. Players without a team share the capsules of the world team.
* Powered capsules show on your team's map in the team colour.

== Radiation ==
If a burning or hot [[BlockFactory:Nuclear Power|nuclear reactor]] is destroyed, it explodes: players within 12 blocks take 200 damage, and buildings nearby are damaged or destroyed. If the world setting <code>Radiation</code> is on (off by default, see [[BlockFactory:World Settings|World Settings]]), the explosion also leaves a radiated area with a radius of 18 blocks for 20 minutes. Players inside it take 4 damage every second.

== Tips ==
* Keep spare weapons and ammunition in a chest near your capsule, so you can go back armed.
* Armor and a Shield Module help you survive the first hits; see [[BlockFactory:Weapons and Armor|Weapons and Armor]].
* In a fight, fall back towards your [[BlockFactory:Defense|towers]] instead of fighting in the open.
