I think you should add a delay (like when you are resting) when you logout so that you cant exploit logout to avoid dieing.

Yep I already thought about that and I mainly agree with you. That would prevent "cheaters" from going through deep dungeons by running/logout , and also unrespectful players waking mobs near you and disappearing suddenly coz they are scared of what they just created, leaving you in the middle of a deadly mess.

Only bad point I see with that is that sometimes ( well, too many times...) I get frozen or I loose connection and I wouldn't like having to wait to login again  to be able to save my life quickly.

An intermediate idea would be that mobs remember you during a while (even if deconnected) so that they still chase you when you login again. Dunno if it's possible to implement.

yes, that can be done, it currently requires each mob have its own AI object with proper settings (or as part of my AI project reworked along with many other things).

That doesnt have to be a problem. THe delay might be done so that the char stays on the server for the delay after logout, than if you just loose connection you can login direct.
