So i tought a change was just what the Master Doctor ordered and i decided to move to Dantoine.


I have a Medium Generic House (2 lots, Style 2, Storage: 150) on Tat, a couple of factories, a lot of harvesters and some weeks of harvested organic materials, different resourses, a couple of crafting stations, The works.


Iget a Small Generic house (2 lots, Style 1, Storage: 150) and deploy it in a small village on Dant. And i figure ill do the move that will take me several trips back and forth whit my back pack and invetory full (considering even my Safety deposit box at the Tat Bank is full)..


I start whit the storage backpacks i have at my Tat house and by the third trip (when i was trying to hang one of the loaded backpacs on the wall of the Dant house,) i get the error message u get when u try and drop an item too many on your estate.


Now wait a minute, i still havea lot of stuff at the other house, and all the stuff i brought and droped at my Dant house was at the Tat house and it Fit there whit no problems.


So i do a mental stretch (tough thing to do since on the way to my house in Dant a mob poisoned my mind,) and count the items in the back packs. Indeed more than the 150 limit will allow was stored at my Tat house


At my Tat house 4 Characters have Admin rights, and all of them drop and pick up things from the storage back packs at the house.


Some times (while living on Tat) i would get the message that the house was full and the status on the structure indeed told me that i was near the 150 limit (off course i never really bothered to count the items).


When that happened i just took a few things and either sold them or stored them at the bank. But little by little (The odd resourse container there, a few hides here, etc.) I ended up whit stuff that wont fit in to my new (same capacitybut different floor plan) house in Dant.



How this this happen? Is it a Bug? Is it intended?

Any info onthis would be apreciated.

Hi,


sometimes you can store more than 150 items. The Problem is, you may then loose items while transferring them to the house.


Those Items might re-appear if they have room, otherwise they are deleted. Happened to me once and this is what I was told by the CSR.


Read ya.

Definatly a bug. I found this out last night. Made a new crafting station. Picked up the old one and went to drop the new one. Get the House is full message. Go to Terminal and it shows 217 items in the house!!!


Open my bags and count the items and sure enough, 217 total items (including the very few furniture items I have). Reduce the count by taking items out and moving to my storage house and the hopperin my Wearables Factory.


Gonna have to do better record keeping! I can't afford to loose 400K + of good quality ORE and the same in steel

Same thing happened to me, with 190 items... I'm just wondering why I didn't get an error message on each of the 40 times that I dropped an extra item in! It's not like I put them in all at once
