[0.980] [BUG] Items lost in trade

from Elemental Forums


I had three weapons lost in trade. Two weapons were lost trading to henchman#1, a staff and spear. Another one, a bow was lost to henchmen #2 during trade.

 

This did not happen every time. Henchmen #1 had the Ice spear equipped, so obviously the trade worked at one point. Henchmen #2 had two different weapons prior to losing the bow.

 

One thing that was in common was the fact the ice spear was equpped during all three occurences.

In Beta 5, henchmen cannot wield bow weapons and some staffs (the ranged weapon type) as well as cloaks.

These items disappear when given to henchmen or bought by them

Derek Paxton said he fixed this issue, but he did not have time to include it in Beta 5 (it will be in Beta 5A)

Yeah I think I figured out the exact issue. You can not trade any weapons (maybe armor) that you can not intially equip a trained unit with. For example Ignis Bow which is a quest only item disappears when you trade it since you can not train a unit with it. Which makes perfect sense because henchmen are technically trained units. Most likely a simple oversight bug.

Actually, Ignis Bows are unlockable with the Arcane Weapons technology; troops can be trained with them, just not until the late game.  Still a bug.
