So, I finally got me a loot bag, figured out how to set what to pick up, but one problem. When I use [grab,[claim the normal loot,gold/tokens, ends up in my main pack,as usual, but not in the loot bag. Am I missing a command? I got the bag set for gold,tokens,organics...I'm at a loss here. please help :(

Day two, I tried a few things today and still it doesn't operate. Did I just waste a mil gold on garbage? I'm going to go through Daat99's script and see if I can sort it out.

If you get just some residual gold and tokens in your pack it's not actually loot; it was the "reward" for using the grab command. It doesn't land in the bag because it didn't exist when you grabbed. It is added to your pack after that step.

I will swap the bag for gold if you feel you have been cheated.

Alright,correct me if i'm wrong, but I was under the impression that using the command [grab, [claim put loot in the loot bag. If that's not the case, how does the loot bag operate?, or is it a blessed bag to safely store loot?...As a side note,Daat99 has a very useful website, I haven't spoken to him in years.

The commands do put loot from the corpse(s) into the loot bag. Long before the arrival of the loot bag, the command gave extra gold and tokens to the player and that function hasn't changed. Since that code pre-dates the loot bag, it deposits that extra gold and tokens directly into your pack.

I have worked with Daat99 and Hammerhand in the past, even on the newest version of tokens / keys / checkbooks / ores / lumber that we don't use here on WP. I didn't use this name of course :D

I hate to be the bearer of bad news,but the loot bag doesn't do anything, regardless of action or command. the extra loot does go into the main pack,per the script. If it's blessed,and it's contents stay with me upon death, that's fine, but like you said earlier, It has command based abilities....I'm glad to see you guys still on the run uo scene, I never got to work with hammerhand, I dipped out after runuo 2.0 hit the scene and had to re-write a lot of my scripts to adapt from 1.0.

As a side note, I would like to thank you and the faceless others for keeping this game alive, I threw away my Excedrin bottle years ago :D

You're the first person to report a bag that didn't function at all. Just wondering -- is the loot bag in your main pack? I think it has to be there to work properly.

C'mon man, give me some credit, I'm only mildly retarded. :lol: I'll download steam and see if it's a razor problem, at this point, I'm more curious than anything.

Alright, apparently for some odd reason Razor isn't allowing it to work properly. I tried Steam and it seems to work. I don't fully understand what role razor plays with functions, but as memory serves me correctly, this isn't the first time I've had problems, but odd things usually only happen with multiple clients. What a pain. :roll:
