Description Claeyt 2014-03-13 10:15:40 CET
when manually dragging and dropping a dead cricket from a box to my inventory a cricket violin also popped up in my inventory.  A townmate of mine and I tried to duplicate it and after about 50 tries or so he was also able to get one in that way.

>A townmate of mine and I tried to duplicate it and after about 50 tries or so he was also able to get one in that way.

What does this mean, more precisely? That he got a cricket violin after picking *the same* cricket up and dropping it fifty times, or after picking up 50 dead crickets from a box, or perhaps something else?

I have encountered this bug as well: when moving crickets from container to inventory with Shift-click, a cricket violin appeared in my inventory. I could not reproduce the bug, though.

I'm actually fairly sure that the real nature of this bug is that the violin drop event is not triggered when a picked-up cricket goes directly to a backpack/pocket, rather than to the main inventory (or to the cursor). It is then subsequently triggered when the cricket is put into the main inventory.
