Stacking Bug

Post by Kelektra »

Issue:

Stacking items

It used to be that when you were stacking items once you got to max height you would get the "clicking" sound means that you cant stack any higher.

Now if you are on a lower floor and you keep stacking eventually you place something on the stack and it looks like its disappears but actually it stacks on top the stack and goes to the next levels floor. If you take stuff off the stack though the item will not come back down. Its basically on the higher floor now.

Thanks. This shoudn't happen :) The max height setting must be off.

You only get the clicking sound when the client itself determines that the items can't be placed there, there is no way to generate this server side. One of the goals of the recent changes is to have both the client and server be in agreement on where items can be dropped to and lifted from. By default, RunUO used to allow you to pick up items from the edges of patio's using razor, while the client knew that you shouldn't be able to pick up items from that location due to the fence; for the most part, the client and server are now in agreement, but the client check is not as robust as the server when it comes to stacking, as the client only clecks the bottom location, and the server must also check all the items in the stack for height. In the case described, that item should "bounce" if there was no room.
