Summary
Don't Starve Together servers can enable a valuable setting for new and veteran players alike, allowing ghosts to revive themselves at the spawn portal for the world. By enabling revives in this way, players can explore with much less worry, as they won't have to rely on another player to restore them. Portal reviving works great for gamemodes such as endless, which tend to sustain over a longer time than typical survival games.
