Enkis can't count

Doing the Smelly Jelly quest.  Orchibaly wants 4 jars of jelly.  I go see the various people to get the ingredients, get the jelly made, even get an extra jar because a cook is so generous. Go back to Orchibaly, try to give it to him and I'm told I have too few jars.  He wants 4, I have 5, and that's too few?  He should be a tax collector, not a baker!  What do I need to do to give him the jelly?

I think you have to have exactly four

drop one of the jars so you have 4 in your inventory, somtimes you have to have the exact number for things to work, then pick up the 5th jar cus you might need it for a diffrent quest

[bilbous]

or just use the give context icon and give him only 4

4-5=-1

Theres the problem.

Duh.

The problem is: You received 5 (an additional for you); unfortunately the quest dialog is not able to take 4 out of a stack of 5. You have to do that manually.

Instead of using the quest dialog, "/give" a stack of 4 jars. That solves the quest.

Ok, that worked, thanks.

Still seems odd though, as other quests where that was an issue at least told you so. I'd get a dialog "you have too many of this item, you must give it manually".  This one, the error is specifically "You have too few..." and tells you to come back when you have enough.

A bugreport about this issue already exists. Now you just need patience until any developer tries to fix it.
