Logical is Nonexistant

Post by MadK@ » Sat Oct 06, 2007 3:47 am

Ladies and gentlemen the time has finally arrived. Our legendary friend from over at nwnx.org, Virusman has put an end to the duping bug that has plagued us for years.

However there is one small issue with this fix which means pulling stacks from a chest will no longer merge with existing stacks but they will recombine inside the container/pchest on server reset.

Having said that I would like to thank Virusman for taking the time to lend us his genius to squish this bug.
I would also like to thank Themicles for sleep grieving himself to help me test this fix.

Stay tuned for the next server reset.
:D

Big props to Virusman for doing so much work for a community he isn't even a part of, and to Themicles and Madkat for working tirelessly to test and figure out the fixes.

You guys rock!

Very nice.

Just to clarify (as this seems to be happening with me), if I pull out a stack of 4 potions and I have 4 of them already in my inventory, the two stacks do not combine ever. The only way to get them to merge is to put both stacks in a P-chest, and wait for server reset.

Correct?
Cheers,

And since I can't edit my last post, also to Madk@ and Themicles and everyone else that I'm sure spent a lot of time trying to fix this nasty problem.

I had 2 stacks that wouldn't merge... one thing that worked was to put them on a p-merchant scale. When they throw them back at you saying they don't buy them, the 2 stacks will merge :)

I am extremely sorry to report an unexpected bug has cropped up with the recent fix.
All servers have been reverted and it is back to the drawing board once again. Im sure we can find a work around, thanks for your patience.

That is a real shame MadK@. :cry:

Out of curiousity, what was the bug please? :?
