<p>In the Bang! Gold Rush extension, the players who had been killed previously keep on playing as shadow gunslingers. If all players but the sheriff and renegade are killed, the dead outlaws have no aim any more, as if the sheriff stays alive they don't win, but if the renegade stays alive they still lose. What happens then? What should the outlaws do? Who should they shoot?</p>

I'd guess they still keep the same goal: kill the sheriff.

But as it doesn't matter who wins, they may just help the one they want or take revenge against the one who got them killed.

They still have the same goal to kill the sheriff as on their turn they are back in the game and in the situation you are describing it is temporally a 3 player game again when it is a shadow players turn. Which means that on an outlaws turn if they kill the sheriff then the outlaws win. It doesn't matter that they where a shadow player because during their turn they considered alive and in the game just that they can't gain or lose life.

Here is a section of the gold rush rules which points out that you are in the game at the start of your shadow turn and that you leave the game at the end of your shadow turn.
