The mystery of the vanishing items...

The title isn't a joke at all, it actually sums up the nature of my problem pretty clearly - Items in 'safe storage' containers have started to simply disappear... Individual items mind you, not the entire contents of the container(s) in question.

 

In the past, I had a more extreme version of this issue, where items were disappearing from the inventories of companions (the worst example of which was Willow's unique rifle 'Beauty' vanishing... While she was using it!). This hasn't happen in the current game yet, but then again, I only have ED-E so far...

 

The only location this bug has manifested so far (as far as I have noticed anyway) is an interior with containers that are linked to an 'auto-sort' system (The mod in question is the latest version of "Afterschool Special").

 

In all current and former iterations of this bug, the primarily affected item category is weapons (if that matters).

 

I'd really like to find a way to fix this *before* I loose any 'unique' items...

well known bug in the game's design

 

when a container gets overloaded - sometimes when any containter in a cell gets overloaded - items vanish

 

but if you talk all, you get the lost item.

 

usual cure is to unload loot

I have the old CIMS version of 'Afterschool Special' - I don't have that 'sortomatic' thing...

Since your issue only shows when using auto sorters, there might be some script interferences that make your sorters behave abnormally. Maybe try using the mod solo, with only it and the official content to see how things work.

Thankfully the problem seems to have resolved itself (for now at least), and I only lost a couple of guns that were easily replaceable. Whew...

 

Hopefully it was just a minor/one-off type glitch and in turn this thread won't be needed again. It never manifested outside of that location either, so it seems I won't have to worry about how bad it got under that previous install.

 

Thanks for the help,
