I have an R2 droid with L6 Med, Droid Repair, F&C Station and 10 item storage (I'm pretty sure it has armor also).

I called my droid (customization fading message), opened it's storage compartment (8 items already in there) and opened my inventory.Then I drag1 item over from my inventory to the droid storage - good. I drag another item over from my inventory to the droid storage - I see it drop in the window and nothing; it's gone from both windows (both items were resources - lost 5k of tat fiberplast -ouch, good stuff too).

1. I was not in a house; I was waiting in a starport.


2. When I tried to group with my droid, he gave me a 'low power' message (I know he needs a battery, but does that affect the ability to store items?)


3. No message displayed on the screen, nor was there any messages in my spatial tab indicating that I destroyed, deleted or transferedthat resource.

Does anyone have an idea of what might have happened? Thanks for your help, DEs.

Strange, I know that when I place resources in my factory it dissapears from my inventory but it doesn't show up in the factory, not instantly anyway.

But, you should be carefull when mixing stations, I think I saw a report on a bug when mixing craftingmodule with storage module.

Have you tried logging out for 5-10 minutes and coming back. Something similar happens to me with items in backpacks in a house. I'll ddrop something into one and it's gone, not in my inv, not in the backpack. Also, if I try to examine something in the house backpack it suddenly disappears as well. Thought my scout character had lost almost 100k of organic materials this way. Logged for a bit (don't remeber how long, I was steamed) came back and it was all in there....course soon as I did anything other than pull it into my inv it would disappear again...

Ya that happens to me all the time when I try to put items in a pack in my house. It dissapears or you can't open the pack, etc.. etc.. but come back a little later or re-log and it's there and all good to go..

=) Probably the same type of thing with the Droid Storage

Mr. Moo

Yeah, I logged out last night and logged in this morning; it was still gone. Waiting to see if the server reset (did we have one today?) brings it back.

Just thought I would toss this out to see if anyone else was having or had this issue.

Thanks for your responses.

There is definately a slight bug with the way resources are displayed, or if you prefer , not displayed in some cases when dropping them in the ingredient hopper fo a factory. What i discovered though, is if you click the "change view" tab in the UI for the hopper, then change it back, you can see them, otherwise you will only notice the green bar for the item count/capacity increasing as you put your resources in there. the same problem may be happeneing with storage modules too, might try it, i surely hope you didnt really lose those resources , it would just mean one more thing to tack on to a long list . provided the situation can be produced every time in the same way...perhaps ill try this when i get off work tonight.

cheers.
