Quivers not working correctly (POL097-2007-01-04)

[Xandros]

I realize that the following is a mix between bug report and feature
request:

It seems the core can't correctly handle the quiver items (e.g. 0x2b02)
introduced in UO:ML. Or spoken in a more general way, the core
probably can't correctly handle any containers equipped on a layer that
is not 21 (the layer for the character backpack).

The quiver is equipped on layer 20. After equipping, items inside the
quiver are no longer accessible to the character, e.g. single clicks,
double clicks or dragging don't work anymore on those items. When
the quiver is not equipped on the character, the items inside are
accessible as usual.

It would be great if something could be done about it, not only for
UO:ML support, but also generally spoken to make containers on
different layers possible (e.g. for people who make client modifications).

No, this IS a bug, thx for reporting it. I never thought of the init checks for the quivers with them being equippable. Will have to look into that.

If you put arrows in it, does it allow you to use those as if they was in the backpack?

Actually, checked this already.

I doubt we will have another 096 release after .6 or .7, so unsure if this will make it to 096, but.....

Already getting set to test the fix for quivers (actually, any item equipped to paperdoll that is a container like them!!) for allowing to drop into, and drag, etc as "legal" items like the backpack.

Next will be to add support in core combat for containers on paperdoll too.

Ok, this is actually plated for 097, sorry. But it is addressed now.
