Morguescreen

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-09

Overview​

MorgueScreen is a UI screen component that presents a player's character death history (obituaries) and player encounter data (e.g., with multiplayer participants). It inherits from Screen and provides tabbed navigation between two sections: "Obituaries" and "Encounters". The component manages scrolling grids of historical records and integrates with Morgue, PlayerHistory, and TheNet systems to display local and networked data.

Usage example​

-- Opening the morgue screen from the main menu or pause screen
TheFrontEnd:FadeOut(function()
    TheFrontEnd:SetScreen(MorgueScreen, prev_screen, user_profile)
end)
