Bug Description:

Specialized Storage Containers remain in the opposite state they are found in after each use.
If you access a Closed container, it will be left Open after you access it.
If you access an Open container, it will be left in the Closed state after access.

This behavior affects the Mining (now Stones), Wood, Hides, and Foliage containers, possibly also an Arcane Curio Cabinet (not tested by me).

Bug Reproduction:

An earlier Battle Pass introduced several special new containers, which are designed to hold only certain resources. Each time you access them, their state changes to the opposite of it’s prior state (Open or Closed). This is not consistent or desirable, except perhaps for role players.

The Large Chest will always close its lid after use, but remain open while a player is accessing it. Please close these containers once access is concluded, so they are not all flipping and flopping all over the base.

This issue has been reported before, but was not acknowledged by the team.
See here: Storage containers remain in open state

It would also be nice if the Foliage container also accepted all seeds, as it would be natural to store plants and their seeds together. If you want, I’ll make a separate issue for that request.

Chitin is not accepted among hides, even though it is a raw resource from animals. I can understand why refined resources are not desired. Resin is not accepted by the Wood container. Glowing goop is not accepted as Foliage.

As author of the previous post about this.
It’s definitely a bug, and it’s still bugging me.

The exact same issue troubles the bazaar item Arcane bookcase. The problem is that the open/close animation plays when player accesses the container, but not when they close the container inventory window. Leading to effective “desynch” of the open/close state of the item.

I hope this following sequence explains it a bit better:

  • container (special container, arcane bookcase) is visually closed.
  • Player accesses it with interact (E) button. The animation plays and the container visually opens and remains open.
  • Player closes the container inventory window with esc. The container STAYS visually open.
  • container is visually open.
  • Player accesses it with interact (E) button. The animation plays and the container visually closes (because it was open to begin with)
  • Player closes the container inventory window with esc. The container stays visually closed.

I was just desiring to report this since it wasn’t added to AoW.1, but looks like I was beaten to it :stuck_out_tongue:
Took this in preparation and everything…

But, oh well, at least it’s been received finally. Here’s hoping for a tidy base once more :smiley:
