Thread: Warning about retrieving resources from vendors (bug)
I have noticed a problem where if you have an almost full inventory, like 58/60, and you try to retrieve multiplestacksof identical resourcesoff a vendor at the same time (by shift clicking to select multiple items, then clicking retrieve). Lets say you are retrieving 8 stacks of 1000 resources and only have two spots free, you will end up with one stack of 2000 resources and the rest will disappear. This has happened to me twice before I figured it out, the first time I lost 10k of ostrine (which hasn't showed on my server in 60 days and I spent about 2 weeks looking for it) and the second with 6k of Diatum copper, which is also rare on my server. Needless to say I wanted to put my foot through my monitor I was so mad.
So I guess it would be advisable to only retrieve one stack of resources at a time to be 100% safe.
Anyone else have this problem? Any chance the devs would reimburse me if I created a ticket?
Multiple-retrieving any type of item when it would put you over your maximum inventory limit will make the items disappear.
Resource stacks are individually retrieved, then subsequently combined into larger stacks. You can see this happen when you have one stack ofa resourcein inventory and pick up another stack of the same. Your inventory count will increase by 1 then drop down to the original value shortly after, as the resource stacks are combined.
Yea, I lost 4 Krayt tissues this way, and I will not hold my breath for the CSR's..
So yea if you are gonna select multiple items use caution
Well doesn't soound too hopeful for me then. I posted a ticket, but won't get my hopes up by any means.
If this happened to you, you should bug it.
Lost pile of Desh like that. Another day or so without vibros then =(
Sucks to be pisspoor MWS.
