Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. There is a longstanding bug with 7 days where a player's death backpack will fall through the world, not get created at all or encounter a similar glitch but the map marker does not get removed.

Describe the solution you'd like This is probably a request for CPM rather than CSMM but I can't seem to find a place to give suggestions for CPM. If it's possible, I'd like to see a player command /clearbackpackmarker that edits the player.xml and removes any tags associated with the player's own node. I've had a search of the discord but only found discussion refencing le/lce but that's not relevant here as there will be no entity in-game; the problem is there's no entity to match the node in the XML.

Describe alternatives you've considered The current suggested solution (found here: https://community.7daystodie.com/topic/32317-a21-phantom-backpack/ ) requires the server to be shut down, an xml edited and the server restarted. As that's disruptive to the players currently online and requires manual effort by server admins, it's not an ideal solution.

Flying to Texas and threatening FP until they fix their f'ing game is appealing but I can't afford the flights.
