Author Topic: [40d11] F/D duplicate in inventory for duplicate items. Same item?  (Read 442 times)

Forbid and Dump ordering affects items that look the same in a unit's inventory.

I am designating held equipment for dumping for my wrestlers, and one guy has a mountain goat leather armor one in his right hand, and the other in his left.
When i forbid or dump any one of them, the order extends to his other one.

I checked if the same thing applied to other items in other wrestlers, but it did not duplicate. While the items i did find did not seem to differ in terms of name, they did differ in terms of which kinds of splattered goo was on them.
About now i'm thinking that the problem items exact duplicity and 'bugged' nature may not be coincidence.

Now I'm thinking that PROBABLY what has happened is that my wrestler has grabbed ONE item SEPARATELY with both hands, and won the item. This way the SAME item is referenced from the two entirely separate item entries in the inventory menu.

It would be better if the item displayed:

mountain goat leather armor, Multigrasp

rather than:

mountain goat leather armor, Right hand
mountain goat leather armor, Left hand

It gives the illusion that there are more items in the character's possession than there really is.
