Hungry Recipes

[Twigg 3]

Due to the extreme rarity of the items involved, I'm forced to request that the GM's test this for verification.

 

I've been holding onto a Supreme recipe for a while now, just to determine what to do with it. As with most "Rare or better" items I leave them on my person for the duration of the day, at the end of which I transfer them to an alt. for safe keeping. .. While in my inventory, I keep them in a separate group.

 

Earlier today, while dredging, I was oh so fortunate enough to pull up a Supreme dirt. I promptly did with it what I do with all rare items. I tossed it into the group in my inv. and carried on. This makes the second supreme item that I've seen not belonging to another player, and not an hour prior to making this summary I found that it was not where I had put it. In fact it was not in my inventory at all. I had put it in the group with the supreme recipe and then it was gone but the recipe wasn't. My only conclusion is that the recipe ate the dirt.

 

If the GM's would test this that would be great, until then I'm afraid that "Da Wife" is sending us more and more hungry pieces of paper marked "Recipe" only to nibble on out blocky toes in our sleep. The only recourse is to make a new grouping just for things made of paper.

 

Sincerely;

Twigg

did you do anything such as leveling or flattening dirt tiles or borders?

if so it was most likely consumed during this since it just uses any dirt in inventory, regardless of rarity or wether or not its in an inventory group.

Ah, Arium; you bring up a valid point. While I can't be certain that I didn't to anything of the sort I was kind of running about like a mad man for a while. So it is entirely possible that I did. And yes this would explain it,

Thank you for reminding me of this.

Leveling, flatten, and anything else that automatically uses things from your inventory will happily use rare+ materials, presumably to ruin your day.

Yes, sad but true. I've even tried putting a rare dirt in a backpack in inventory. It will still use that dirt. The only way I've found to safeguard a rare dirt is to drop it in a pile so it's not on my person at all.  Same with bricks, planks, nails, etc. for things where you don't have to put the items in the crafting window, just have them in inventory, like house walls.
