I think that would be so freaking cool, I also think dead players should be able to turn lights on and all that.

Well since dead players can see where the ghost is it would be cheating. You might as well all be in discord or steam chat and ignore the in-game chat.

But they can throw cups to the room/where they died

I dont want this a feature. It would make the game too easy.

Given the recent change that ghost players can throw non-tool items at the players. I would adore the spirit box allowing us to continue searching for the ghost. But at the same rate, it can be dangerous as it would encourage death runs. Where a player is purely killing fodder to find the ghost.

"Dude, where's the ghost?"

"E"

I think they are attempting to make sure death isn't completely boring, without making it too appealing, while also trying to make sure the dead can't troll too badly or make the game too easy. It's a tough balancing act to fine tune, but I'm pretty sure they will generally try to avoid the dead players being able to interact with any form of evidence related tool, spirit box included.

Would be nice to see the player able to interact with a non-evidence tool though, like perhaps instead of doing spirit box, dead players can interact with ouija (when there is one) and you would have some indication that it's a player responding rather than the ghost. First thing off the top of my head is making it so the dead has to actually interact with ouija and move the cursor themselves (since it's hard to type on VR) but while they do you can see a faded manifestation of their character model. Making it the slightly tedious ouija board would also mean it's hard for the dead to give useful info quickly, though they can still sometimes crack the case. Say they were alone in ghost room when a hunt started and the ghost went mach 5 for them, they could still pretty easily spell out "revenant".

I think this is also a good idea but dont expect any content to be coming at any time soon
