Inventory disappeared on after knocked out

Just outside my house I've attacked a rabbit and it turned into march hare and quickly killed me. I've respawned but for some reason I was completely invisible. I've entered my house to get some food and my invisibility ended. But when I came to where my inventory should have dropped there was nothing at all. Not that I've lost anything significantly important, but it still seemed strange.

I've tried going to providence and back, logging on and off and it did not help.

Was that some secret ability of march hare or just some glitch?

Items dropped to the ground despawn after X amount of minutes, so there is a chance that you were too slow.

This invisable thing happens from time to time after KO, i guess it is some client/java thing that not reload the textures.
You can simple fix it with closing client and reload it.

March Hare is not the reason for it.
That you get a March Hare from a simple Rabbit is just bad luck.... or good luck, if you have enough biles ;)

Decaying items on ground are intended.
It based on time, how long they lay around.

You can also perform a player animation and it will come back. Performing a stomp will force you to show up again.

I was back in a minute - it' was really that close to my base. I know about item decay but I expected to be able to pick my stuff up.

i always figured that was a nice feature: when you need to pick up a ***** of things, it's easy when your character graphics don't get in the way :)

I wonder if there's a way to toggle this feature on purpose for the sake of making Salem cinematics without having your character constantly centered

It seems that was a single glitch since I've been knocked out by another march hare today and my inventory did not disappear this time (though it got stuck in the walls and I couldn't retrieve most of it).

it could be, if you ask very nicely. Probably not even that hard not to render your current character, but then you would need to be using a second character as 'camera'.
