    Nah not really, i think to make it lag less they could make if the same person dies twice the first gun that he dropped will despawn and drop at the new spot that he died. And maybe the guns despawns after err 20 seconds? And for that part impossible to pick up certain items would be solved by this. When you pick it up the server will check for what item it is, if you haven't unlocked it you will instantly drop it and pick up the weapon you dropped at first.

    this could use the same system as the dead bodies idea if both where implemented.

    Yeah, but is that even possible? I don't know anything about coding servers, but I'm pretty sure you'd have to code it so the server could somehow link dropped items on the ground to a player who is now all the way across the map. The "checking" thing doesn't make sense to me, it would have to be constantly checking player profiles for this to work.

    And that's only 2 out of the 4 issues, what about the other two?

    Here is a video of it
    The ammo problem will be solved by the same way. The server will check the inventory of an player that died and it will drop the same amount of ammo that the player had.

    Thank you for politely proving me wrong, but I still don't know how you'd pick up the items in the first place without making it really easy to accidentally pick one up. For instance, Q might work, but that's already used to reload weapons.

    I think if you crouch on top of it for 2 or 3 seconds that would be a good way to do it. I believe this is how they did it with the bomb on minestrike
