[Fixed] Cant' place full huge tub

Recommended Posts

Push works, pull works, place:

 

[19:05:30] You are carrying too much to pick up the huge tub.

 

 

This doesn't make sense, given we can place FSBs and BSBs full of stuff :)

it does. neither bsb not fsb you can take into inventory when full. Huge tub you can when its not empty. in your case its full, too heavy for you to handle so you cant place it.

Of course from *code* view on things it does make sense. While from *game* position, it doesn't.

 

Still a bug if you can place one heavy thing, but not the other.

The confusion here is from the fact that there are two "Place" commands.

  • The Place command in the main menu attempts to pick up the item and then drop it in the specified location. This is available for items you can pick up.
  • The Place command in the "Move" submenu moves it slowly along the ground from one place to the other. This is mostly intended for items you can't pick up, but would push around.

For something like a huge tub, both options appear, because you can pick them up. If it's too heavy to pick up, you can try the second option in the Move submenu next to the Push/Pull options.

Maybe change the Place in the submenu to another verb? Or have the pickup place attempt a move place if the first fails?

Imo this should somehow be addressed, so as a result there is one place command. May be branch in the code,

 

if (canPickUp) {callPlaceFromInventory()} else {callPlaceTheOtherOne()}
