Suicide button

When i was looking through some topics,i saw that people wanted to die. In-game of course. I immediately thought of a suicide button,and maybe with gore setting there would be different suicides like:

Minimum gore level (all levels): Creature just drops dead on the floor
Maximum gore level (Industrial and Space): Creature shoots himself through the head,brains all over the place.

And of course many other. I think that adds some variety to the game. And a super rare chance of people that think ''how will my suicide NOW look like?''.

And of course,it's just handy.

I don't know the good section for this,so i placed it here

:/

Honestly, I think that if someone wants to kill themselves, do it the practical way. However in early testing we might include this as a feature--if at any time a creature gets stuck or glitched and can't get out of its stuck or glitched position, you can kill it. There are probably going to be a lot of bugs at first.

But later on I say no.

As for the gore control I opt for it to be included, not just for preference, but also performance. (More blood = more lag!) But more in the form of a slider, or with more options--possibly under an "advanced options" menu?

You cant say that later versions WONT have any bugs. Look at Gran Turismo 5,took almost 8 years or something and still has bugs. Fallout New Vegas,1 or 2 years in production,LOTS of bugs. So suicide will be handy. Else it would be some boring waiting untill you die of age (?) or carni/omnivores or something.

QFT. When we declare Thrive out of beta, we remove it. After that, if you really want to die, do it yourself. I'm worried having a big SUICIDE BUTTON!!!! would encourage people to kill themselves, which isn't a good idea.

...If there is a glitch and you can't escape, you could always quit without saving.

Or we can just include a /reset console command placing the creature on flat ground nearby, and if any of these people come asking on forums, we reveal them the secret.

Idea is good. Debug console solves.
