Hey, I don't know if anybody else has seen this bug but I ran into it last night hunting on Tatooine. When harvesting a creature, I would get a message that says something along the lines of "One or more resource containers has been left on corpse". When I'd recieve this message, I'd then have to loot the creature to get my harvest. I had plenty of space in my pack so I'm not sure what was causing this to happen. I'm also not sure how much meat and hide I left rotting on corpses. I'm sure I missed a ton before I noticed it.

So... as a solution, I edited my harvesting macros. I figure other people here might want to do the same to prevent accidentally leaving behind some of your harvests.

Instead of just using /harvest hide, /harvest meat, etc use:

/harvest hide;
/pause 1;
/loot;

You have to use the pause in there or else the /loot happens before the /harvest for some reason.

Upright,


That's an interesting bug.


The only one that I've heard of that's similiar is when you try to harvest a material off of a critter that doesn't give that type of material - like trying to harvest hide off a Nightspider (which only gives meat) for instance.


Thanks for posting this info!

I noticed that /loot was happening before /harvest when I created a macro similar to yours without the /pause. I didn't think to include a /pause so I just removed the /loot. Thanks for passing on the info!
