Title: Items do not stack
Post by: nelliott on March 03, 2005, 05:15:29 am: I haven\'t had time to try booting into Windoze and trying, but on my Linux system, items will no longer stack. To be more specific, I had a full inventory of Tefusang teeth that did not auto-stack. I tried manually stacking them and got an error message that said something like \"Tefusang Tooth does not stack with (garbage characters here)\"

Not a major problem, but it takes a lot longer to sell, and I can\'t carry as many at one time. The notes on laanx.fragnetics.com suggest this was supposed to be fixed with the last patch, so I thought I should bring it up.

Oh, and the darkness problem everyone is describing does NOT happen on my Linux system.

Thanks

Edit: I\'ve fixed this on my machine. I will comit to CVS and update laanx with the fix tomorrow sometime.

Well it is not fixed anymore! Everytime I leave PS or the game crashes, any new items can not be stacked with the old items. So the
slots in the inventory is quickly taken up.

It seems to be like this, also sometimes when I move some items around to another empty slot they do stack, but if I try to place same type of item to slot where is already more same type of item it won't go.

Post by: The Wandering Djinn on July 16, 2006, 02:41:36 pm: Items in your inventory will stack in the latest PS Clients [0.3.015b] but only under the following conditions:

1. Items that were stacked in an inventory slot of your character in PS Client [0.3.014] and have not been moved out of your inventory, will still be stacked in a slot.
2. Items that are of the same type (i.e. iron ores) AND of the same Quality will stack in the same slot of your inventory.

Click-drag the item -for example a Dagger- up to the Eye Icon [Examine] and you'll see something like - Quality: 23.6/50
If you later loot another Dagger, and it's Quality is also 23.6/50 -it will join the Dagger you have already in the same slot.

Then you loot a third dagger and it's is Quality: 27.2/50 -it will go into a slot of its own

You can equip just that third Dagger, and go fight a spawn that isn't likely to kill you, and fight a few rounds... you can wear it down until it's quality is the same as the other two daggers, and then all three will stack in one slot. :)

Is this a bug? I don't think it is... this is too well thought out, I think it is intentional.

Post by: willelmo on July 16, 2006, 03:22:24 pm: Issue happens mostly when you exit PS or when it crash.

For example I had looted rats, PS did crash, I restarted it and again started looting rats, but rat eyes were not stacking, there was eventually 3 piles of them, I put eyes from top left slot to top right slot, that wen't ok, but eyes from 2nd line left slot did not go to top right slot, however when I did put them to top left slot they did stacked to top right slot.

But as my PS often crash when I exit I can't be sure if it is just effect of crash that causes this.
