Inventory Bug/Glitch

TheAngelEclipse

IGN: TheAngelEclipse

Bug: Going to try to keep this short and simple, but I was sorting through my chests and once I had a double chest of iron leggings/boots I said "Free iron armor at spawn", and at this point I had glow-stone, stone bricks, stone, tools, and some other items in my inventory along with the leftover armor I was going to give out (because it didn't fit in my chests). After typing /spawn my inventory was cleared aside from my pickaxe, axe, shovel, sword and 41 chests (all in the first 5 slots of my immediate inventory). None of it was too valuable from what I remember so I'm not going to do a refund request but I wanted to report this bug in-case it were to happen again.

I'm not quite sure why, if this was a glitch, that my *entire* inventory wasn't cleared, only the top part you can't see without pressing the "e" key, and the last 4 slots of the immediate inventory. I didn't unfortunately have any screenshots of what I all had, but I know it wasn't that big of a loss anyways. The materials are easily replaced, I have tons of glow-stone and I was giving the armor out anyways. If you have an easy way to see what I had before it happened, I wouldn't mind it back but it's not worth the bother, otherwise.

Time/Date of Report: 12/13/2014 - Around 3:20pm CST

Steps to reproduce: Not sure how you'd "reproduce" this but I'd think if you were trying to, you'd put a bunch of stuff in your inventory, type /spawn and see if it's still there? I did type /warp creative and then /home town to get back to TownsA where my items were last seen in my inventory, they weren't there. I also relogged and checked all my chests to see if I was just lagging really bad, the last 30 minutes I was working on my organization. The items have still not reappeared..

Evidence: I didn't anticipate this happening so I didn't have any screenshots of what I had before they disappeared, but here's a screenshot of the afterfact. I marked the spots I believe my items were in, not sure I got the top half all correct but that is approximately where everything was.

I attempted to recreate this and did not encounter the bug again. Maybe you should test it and take a screenshot on either side?

I also suggest trying to click or right click on any place where an item was, as often times glitches like this are lag. Otherwise, it appears to have been resolved.

I did try placing other items in the spaces where my items went missing from, nothing happened. I'm not sure if this is able to be re-created as I stated above, it might just be something that -happens-. Also, I wouldn't say it's "resolved" as my items still haven't showed back up although my main purpose of posting this is that in the case it were to happen to another member - you'll have evidence that this has happened before and is a reoccurring issue.

If anybody else knows anything about this or has it happen to you, please comment and let us know. Thank you for looking into this, regardless.

Did you check the chests where you got the items from?

Hmm, another one of those bugs. I have not personally experienced it, but it seems really familiar.

1. In skyblock, I had a bug, where if I placed an item into a hotbar slot, it would not register it. - resolved
2. In towny, if a tool breaks for me, it reappears after a certain time with minimum durability. - still a problem

There are probably more, but they have one thing in common. The server/players connection staggering at times.
Yours was probably a one time 'inconvenience' and I find it really improbable to happen again. I am not even sure there is anything the admins can do to prevent such incidents in the future.

You might want to check for any recent rollbacks and/or lag during this time period.

I myself was experiencing miniature rollbacks...

Has this issue happened again? This is most likely a fluke in how the system is supposed to run altered by lag, or another conditional situation.

TheAngelEclipse

No, I haven't seen this happen since. I guess it was probably a one time thing as you said.

For a lack of a better spot, I'm going to put this in resolved/denied. This is only because of the method of when this happens it's not precipitated by any actions, etc. Much like a rollback, it's an unfortunate part of Minecraft. However if you, or anyone else sees this issue happening with increased frequency, please feel free to post another bug report.
