pickaxe vanished

[HolyLight]

welcome to the new world.

Village has lost a total of 2 steel pickaxes, and a normal pickaxe within the past few days due to this bug.

Yes the tears are flowing.

EDIT: Others who i spoke with who have had the same problem, It has ALWAYS been the pickaxe they have lost.

This is most likely because the pickaxe is the 'heavier' of the tools. Thus when you have 90% of its weight reduced in the toolbelt it is not a big deal, but when you move it to your hands you now get 100% weight on the pickaxe and 90% weight reduction on the 'lighter' sifting pan. Thus causing you to drop the thing you just put into your hands which you do not have the weight limit to carry.

well how about tools all weigh the same..
or
weight limit is ignored for an object coming from/to your hand/tool belt slots
or
you have a hidden system slot that holds an item coming from the hand slot and will keep it there until weight allows it to transfer to the toolbelt
or
your hand slot and tool belt slots have the same weight value... so lvl 1 belt gives hand slot 50% weight, leather belt gives 75% weight to hand slot and fine leather belt gives 90% weight reduction to hand slot.... this way the tool weighs the same when going from hand to tool belt and doesn't get dropped.
or
a dropped tool makes a noise, and items dropped in shallow water have a 50% de-spawn timer instead of just vanishing on impact.


see there are lots of options for fixing this problem....

Or

you learn not to carry 99.50% OVER your max carry weight.
