I'm pretty sure this bug has been reported before but it's still happening when ever a clan item is knocked off of a golem none of the other knocked off will show up on the map. |

Huh... it seems like this was attempted to be fixed, but wasn't done properly. Now it seems as if it is clan items that don't fall off a golem whne the limb is destoyed, right now I've got a weapon equipped in a hand that's missing. Golem# 11135, Unfortunate Orchid |

I can verify that, infact I was missing the entire limb. It made me worry about losing it until I found it still mounted on the 'phantom' limb. What I didn't do, and probably should have, was check to see if my golem could still 'use' the crossbow I had on it while missing the limb, if so... It would be a dastardly way to fight with all those armless golems lieing around the place... -Haruna Al Khalid |

Oh, my weapon's still attached, I sent the golem up against the giant again to verify, I can even reload it! |

Yanno, I should have asked this before, but is the messaging claiming you lost items you didn't, or is the messaging correctly noting all items you actually lost (even though you should have lost more)? Kep |

Previously it had been saying things dropped, even when they didn't. When I lost the hand holding the weapon, there was no drop message, and it remained in hand. |

Previously as in... when? Because I haven't made any changes to this section of code in months, since I was never able to duplicate the bug. Usually when I can't duplicate a bug, it means I'm not recreating the circumstances that causes it properly. I need more info to setup a similar situation. In fact, just tell me the full list of items you had on orchid at the time (or send in a message if you don't want that public). We'll start with that. KepLast Edited: Oct 24, 2008, 3:06 pm |

The full list of items I had on Orchid recently? She had an Ouroborus, a Bronze Cannon, Emerald Eyes, and maybe a piece of head armour, but I don't think so. The cannon was in an iron 3 left hand, that got blown off fighting the giant because I forgot to check it for ammo. (oops) The cannon remained in the nonexistant hand, and was still able to be reloaded and fire properly. In the past it seemed as if any clan item fell off at the same time an item that would ordinarily be lootable fell off, the clan item would be returned to the clan, and any other items would remain attached to the golem, even though the limb they were attached to was missing. This phenomenon, combined with the Screaming Iron Mask, led to multiple cases of Floating Eye Syndrome. |

Oooh, and I just got my arm knocked off again, and still the cannon sits in place. If you really want I can leave the current equipment on, and not fix the arm. Considering the cannon is still useful it doesn't strike me as much of a hardship. |

Hm, so the cannon stayed in place despite you not losing anything else from that location? One interesting thing I noted is that the admin panel was showing the arm and hand missing, but still showing slots/resistances/etc data for the arm (but not the hand). I repaired it fully after looking, btw. Kep |
