Subject: Character Stuck in Unconscious State After Disconnect

Message:

Hello DayZ team,

I would like to report a bug related to disconnections during zombie attacks.

When I play and get attacked by two or more zombies, sometimes I get kicked from the server due to unstable connection or high ping. If my character gets knocked out (unconscious) during this time and I reconnect later, my character may actually wake up, but the game still considers them unconscious.

This causes a serious problem: I can't move, see, or interact — even though my character should be conscious. It seems like the unconscious state is not updated properly after reconnecting.

Here are some details:

In-game nickname: Grechka

Server: DayZ Official Server 1218

Time of issue: [insert time and date if you remember]

Please investigate this issue. It can completely break the gameplay when it happens.

Thank you for your support!

Best regards,
Grechka
