beta5: auto-ID in stores, and inventory not refreshing

#1 Post by greycat »

I went into a store with un-IDed stuff from the Trollshaws. I used the keyboard to move over to my inventory, arrowed down to an un-IDed potion, and hit Enter. The game auto-IDed it for me as a giant potion of something or other, and then asked for confirmation before selling it. Free ID!

I went down to a stack of 2 potions of slime mold juice and sold those. They did not disappear from my inventory list inside the shop. I went down and I think I sold them a second time, at which point they finally left my inventory. I wasn't paying close enough attention; I'm not sure if I successfully got double gold for them or not.

Went into the weapon store and free-auto-IDed an iron greatsword I'd found. I sold it, and it did not vanish from the inventory listing inside the store. I left the store and went back in. Now, finally, the sword was not showing up in my inventory.

It turns out that I do indeed get to sell each item twice, getting the gold for it both times.

The bug occurs for me using either the keyboard or the mouse. If you leave the store after selling the item once, it will be removed from your inventory. This bug also occurs while selling. If you select to buy something and you select no the money is still being removed even though you don't get the item... Also, if you use the keyboard to select a letter that doesn't have an item associated with it, the last item in the list will be selected.

There's an even weirder bug that comes up occasionally: if you are selling a bunch of stuff it will sometimes sell something you did NOT select and it remains un-ID'd AFTER it's in the shop.

not a problem, this still is in beta, and even though it is harder to test things out due to some problems (like loading) those playing now are really just guinea pigs as you try to figure out what is best and what works best.

albeit those guinea pigs can talk and give feedback which is pretty good ;) and that helps you to make a better game :P

Aargh, my lvl 11 archer (who cleared all starting areas except the lowest lvl per dungeon so to be utterly prepared for the bosses) doesnt load..

I hope you guys give prio to this in the next beta as i think my willingness to test the game will drop dramatically if i can't load saved games.

I think this is fixed in the next beta as dg said he removed his hack at something, so it should work (dg, if you want I can test beta 6 before you publicly release it to see if load works)

I will also check my drivers and see if there are any updates too. (ick... 116mb of dl stuff, only 2 files though) [EDIT: still cant load though]

but yeah, at first I felt the same way with loading, but then I realized that the game wont progress to where we like it if we dont help. so I stayed :)
