I haven't ever been able to put things in unlocked barrels...how did you do this?

You used to be able to do that, however it was removed for database reasons.

Thats kinda funny since I still use Unlocked Containers as storage. Place the container in your inventory and drop the items into it from there. After you are done with that drop it in your house.

Atleast that is how I have and am still doing it.

You can still use the Unlocked containers, but now you have to pick them up in your inventory and drag items to it just like a backpack , then drop it back in your house... You can open and pull things from them when in the house, but it will not let you drop things into them...


I used to have about 20 of them in my house and they look geat in teh house as opposed to backpacks, but when they added "Live Creature Habitats" the unlocked containers bugged out and I think they may be related...

We dont even have the option of doing that anymore cause we dont have anything like that to use for storage and even if we did i have to go through my house and give away stacks of resources that are outdated cause as a former crafter stocking up for a return i have 2 banks and 2 houses full of mostly crafting supplies


Want i want to know is do devs up the limits on there personal houses or just give themselves more lots?

I actually have trouble placing items in unlocked containers. I get the "You do not have permission to access Unlocked container. " Yet i can remove the stuff in them. I am sometimes able to place stuff in them and sometimes not. I stopped using them because i dont want to get things stuck in them.

Oh I love TH's reply! It had nothing to do with the topic of this thread. That's just as disrepectable as the forum changes. Dis-ed and Dis-ed again. lol

But the big problem with the "live Creature Habitats" is that absolutely anyone can just walk into your house, select "Release Creatures" (or whatever the command is) and destroy your decoration (if you place one of those tall wooden torches dead in the centre of one it makes a nice high tech looking lamp that actually provides light). I'm forever crafting new habitats just to put down in my house where some git's walked in and randomly destroyed them just for the fun of it.
