Hiya all, I tried to upgrade L25 gloves (leather working), and didn't have the money... oops lol.
As a result, the gloves were eaten by the leatherworking chest. I've attached the picture below. To all crafters, please make sure you have enough money...
This is on Bombardin Leather if we can fix it. If not no worries, it was my fault.
Yup, on occasion, I have lost crafted items due to lacking in the upgrade requisites. The last time something like this happened, the server was laggy, so it was likely the crafting scripts didn't fire properly. Best advice to all crafters, always make sure you have enough XP and gold to upgrade your items and try not to do any heavy crafting when it's laggy.
IIRC there is a timing issue to do with the container being cleared before the item transfer completes properly, which means you never get the item. Netrom lengthened the delay before clearing the container so it usually works, but I would guess when the server is laggy it can still happen.
