Weight and Item Counts
  • Recoded the handling on Weight Limits and Item Count Limits to address a number of outlier issues with incorrect calculations for players
  • Fixed a number of issues where the Stacking of items into containers would not correctly respect Weight Limits and Item Counts
  • Fixed a number of issues where players would incorrectly receive "that container is full" messages when attempting to move an item despite having sufficient carrying capacity (especially when at boosted capacity from Camping Skill or Strength Potions)


Total Weight and Total Item Count Determination
  • A player's Total Weight and Total Item Count will now only consider the contents of their Backpack and Equipped Containers (Quivers/Satchels/etc) and not the weight of the containers themselves (unless otherwise noted, as some Equipped Containers will ignore Item Counts for their contents)

  • Single-clicking a player's Backpack will now show the player's combined Total Weight and Total Item Count for their Backpack and all Equipped Containers (Satchels/Quivers/etc)
  • The Status Bar for a player has been updated to correctly display the player's Total Weight and Weight Capacity

Weight and Item Limit Buffers

Players are allowed add items into their Backpack/Equipped containers beyond their carry capacity (and be subject to Stamina penalties) so long as they dont exceed buffer limits of:
  • Total Weight Capacity by 50
  • Total Item Capacity by 5

Players will be prevented from adding items to held containers beyond these limits


Exceeding Carrying Capacity
  • If a player has exceeded either their Total Weight or Total Item Limit and moves, they will lose 10% of their Max Stamina (min 2 Stamina) for each step taken and will receive a system message telling them their current Total vs Capacity

  • If a player has exceeded either their Total Weight or Total Item Limit and is at 0 Stamina, they will not be able to move and will receive a corresponding system message as such
  • Overloaded players will not be able to Recall/Hike/Magical Travel (similar to current handling)

Container Item Limits
  • While a player can have Total Item Limit above 125 (due to Camping Skill or other bonuses) they are still restricted to placing at most 125 Items into a single "nested" container on the player (including worn Satchels/Quivers/etc)
  • This limit is to prevent the player from creating a movable containers that would exceed limits that other players can lift, or secure/lockdown in a house
  • The exception to this rule is players can directly have over 125 items on the main layer of their Backpack (because this container is not movable)
 
There may be an issue with this :

  • Total Weight Capacity by 50
  • Total Item Capacity by 5

I was at 382 stones and was trying to pickup ~1700 gold and it wouldnt let me until I drank a str potion
 
Also noticing an issue where when I port out of a dungeon my weight goes up past my limit where prior to using the moongate it was below the limit.
