Exult Forum

Items still dont stack as they did with the DOS engine (e.g. money, regs, lockpicks etc.) I beg you to implement this =)

Also, keys arent auto-added to the keyring when dragged into the inventory. And When dragging an item onto a char, its placed into his backpack, no longer into the belt bag...

Yes, I noticed the same problem autostacking money.

You mean that if you put one stack of coins on top of another, they don't join? I'm pretty sure that was working for me a few weeks ago, but maybe it got broken. In any case, it is supposed to work.

They do join if you stack them manually, but if you drag piles into your backpack, they don't automatically join together; you have to do it yourself. In the original it stacked your money or lockpicks automatically, now you get lots of little piles! Anyway, other than that no probs so far!
Thankyou for your work (as ever!)

Personally, I used to play with the belt bag holding important goods and the backpack holding stock crap. I haven't tried Exult (I intend to sometime within the next few days) yet, but I get the feeling they meant to stuff crap into the backpack because the team may feel the way I do: cramming @!#$ into your belt bag where you hold the cool goods gets annoying because you keep having to reorganize.

Speaking of the belt bags...

Exult (BG) doesn't always let me keep a bag on the belt. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Mostly the bag goes in the backpack.

By the way...

I remember the original BG never allowing me to have the belt bag. SI always did, but BG never did. Exult works about 25% of the time for me.

This probably depends on if you're wearing something else in that slot. Because of the way the original BG works, the 'shield behind back', 'weapon behind back' and 'belt' slots are one and the same in BG. (So if you have a weapon on your back, you can't use your belt slot)

wjp: hm, I think I have to include this in the next FAQ update...
