SOS -- Not enough room.

When fishing up an SOS I'm finding that if there is a single fish at my feet, and (I'm assuming) too many items in my pack, that I get "You do not have enough room in your backpack for a fish." and my SOS dissapears -- with no loots. This has happened several times already today (argh!), though I'm not entirely sure of what was at my feet each time. Loot drops to my feet with no items already at my feet just fine (it seems). For obvious reasons I don't want to test too thoroughly!

Never noticed this problem before.


Update: It seems it still happens with nothing at my feet. Only sometimes though!

if you dont have room in your pack for a fish its because you are fishing and your pack is full, not trying to fish up a sos, which would end up dropping the chest at your feet.

maybe you are explaining it poorly but ive received that message before and have never lost a sos

My pack isn't full -- I had 100 items in one case. And its trying for the SOS loot, not fish, or I wouldn't be losing the SOSs when the message comes up. An example: I pulled all the pre-chest loot, but got that message when I tried to pull the chest -- and still lost the SOS.

I've made no changes to my MIB-hunting routine. I fish when I have 400 or so MIBs, and separate them into color coded bags of 100. Chests have *always* fallen to my feet, if they wouldn't fit in my backpack. I've lost around 10 already today, I think I would have noticed that.

The chests should absolutely fall to your feet. I'm looking into this. I recommend waiting on fishing them up until this can be verified and/or fixed. Offhand, I can't think of anything in the last patch that could have caused this.

Thanks.

I found the bug. This will be fixed in the morning. It doesn't happen every time, but it's not recoomended to fish up SoS's unless you can carry the chest until tommorrow.

Just wanted to say I've confirmed that all is well.
Thanks for the quick fix!
