Hi, I am sure you already know about the issue but can you PELASE fix the inventory sorting bug, that only lets me move stuff from my inventory if I have it on ‘‘No Sorting’’. Any other sorting by type, weight, etc stops me from moving anything. Server is 1036 PVE-C, English Language.
Seconding how many people (players and supposedly game creators) know about this, but there has been no proposal for correcting the issue.
This is a data corruption issue in addition to a programming bug. The reason I state that is for often newly created characters on differing servers, the inventory seems to work just fine “for a while”. As we play the game, and objects such as coin purses, sorcerer sachels, supply materials and other things are opened it eventally causes the bug to present itself. After that time, it seems that it remains with your character for the remaining time you play on that specific server.
I have been wanting to connect with the devs but I don’t have a way to do so. Using the forums feels like talking to a brick wall that doesn’t talk back. They need to clone the save game of the reporting users, place this file onto their development boxes (single player or private networked server), change their required internal ID to replace our IDs, (not sure if it’s a funcom ID or steam ID). Then they can explore the issue as we have been experiencing it.
It would take a competent developer less than a day, in my opinion, to understand what was going on in the internal tables of this system if they had everything presenting itself locally and repeatably. Then they can make use of their tools for blueprints, game logic (comparing the current version to the pre-bug version would be nice) and resolve how to do two things as follows.
- They need to stop introducing the ordering mis-match into the data tables that manage our inventory.
- They need to clear the corrupted internal sorting and restore the data tables to a pristine state (like a new character).
Things I have tried as a player to clear this include: dumping all inventory out of my player into containers within the game (a vault perhaps). Changing the sort order in the UI and picking up and returning all items from that container. Picking up and restoring all items without changing Sort Order. Picking items up with one sort order and changing values and placing them back into the container.
I have not tried killing my character with no items in my inventory, as I’m quite sure that characters usually have no items in their inventory often enough (vs partial hot bar or backpack being preserved).
What else can we do as players?!
The devs should understand that once this problem manifests for a player it is SUPER ANNOYING as it reoccurs dozens or hundreds of times per day in gameplay. Almost makes players think about quitting. I know of players who are exasperated by certain bugs (a different big) and are just about to switch what they play.

Thank you for the elaborate reply. I do hope they fix it, but then again, they probably focus on Dune , the new game …Conan has such huge potential, but then again it is a business, they need to make money so ..sure. I can move items from my inventory if I keep it on ‘‘no sorting’’ but I am baffled how games like V Rising have such great inventory management and chests for different materials and etc., while none of that is present her where we have so many resources.
Anyway, thank you again!
