Player Ragdoll Physics
🎮 **Make death more real! **
🎯 Core Functions
This mod revolutionizes the death mechanic in Elden's Circle! When you or any human-type NPCs and enemies die, they take on realistic ragdoll physics instead of simply dissipating and disappearing.
✨ **Featured effects:**
- The body will maintain physical reactions after the character dies
- Dust particle effects will still occur, but corpses will persist until the loading screen
-Imagine it is like the soul leaving the body!

🎪 Physical Properties

🐛 Known issues
🔧 **Seamless Coop in:**
- Other players will not be ragdolled, but will be frozen at the last frame of their death animation
- But it won't disappear
🎁 **Item drop problem:**
- NPCs that drop items may take a few seconds for the drops to appear.
- Corpses may be kicked or slid into inaccessible areas, making it impossible to obtain items
👻 **Soul Summon:**
- Human type soul summons, phantoms and intruders will have a ragdoll effect
- But it will disappear quickly after death (game mechanism)
💰 **Rune location:**
- If you die and are not resurrected for more than 10 seconds, the rune may appear at the ragdoll location instead of the initial death location.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
