I played Dayz while i couldn´t connect to steam, so steam was active, but with a red Chain (or what it should be).

I joined a server and lost my connection after about 20 sec.

When i joined the server again, i saw myself there, disappearing after a few seconds.

I waited i lost connection to the server, logged back in and kill my duplicate.

Next time, i joined a server, i was a freshspawn again.

I although had the problem, that food and water had no effect on my status after that strange suicide.

This char died and the next fresh spawn was ok (food + water were effective, again.)
