Magic Bags

Post by Diilicious » Sat Sep 17, 2016 8:47 pm

Does anybody know why my magic bags constantly glitch out?

I run a fairly popular store in burrowhome, the stuff i put in it sells out almost as fast as i can keep it stocked. and keeping it stocked means genociding all the medium sized animals on the island for their meat.

as im not a strength build, even wearing all strength runes I cant really carry a whole lot, so i have loads of magic hunting/mining bags to decrease the carry weight to 40% and since i am almost near cosntantly emptying and refilling the bags they eventually glitch and will weigh more than they should when empty.

this wouldnt be a problem again if i were a strength build, but not being one -every pound is a precious balancing act and i dont have the storage space to put them anywhere.

So when a bag that should weight 0.2lb empty, suddenly weighs 2.2 or 5.2+ when empty it gets very problematic.

why does this happen, because any DM can tell you how often i have to ask for replacement bags and its out of hand now and i dont know what to do about it.

I personally think this is fine as it is.

Ignore Phoenix. I, for one, can testify to the nightmare this bug brings.
Pls fix asap. Lots of love.

I will have a look at it soon. Any clues as when exactly it starts to happen? Which situation you have in the bag, which actions do you take on them?

this happened to me after fiddling with a crafting station, when i accedently opened up the bag (was an empty magical mining bag) then it started to weight 10lbs.

I've checked the code, there is a (necessary) delay in there to set the weight, which can cause an issue when you remove items too quickly. I've pushed a fix live just now. Seeing the DM activity in this thread, I expect a server reset won't be taking too long. ;-)

Is it or will it ever be possible when unloading magic bags to unload them by stacks instead of one item at a time?
