Container not picked up after jettison when a cargo container comes within range of scoop #64

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
    Type: Defect
Severity: Medium
 Urgency: Medium

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Fill all holds with cargo.
2. Attack pirate and win battle.
3. Attempt to ‘pick it up’ when asked.
4. Jettison 1 container when prompted.
   o Realize that you are not prompted again to pick it up after making room.
     . I suppose the game can guess that if I made room, I want to scoop
     . I suppose the game can guess that if I did not make room, I want to let it drift
   o Realize that you have one empty cargo hold when you reach the destination.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Container not picked up after jettison when a cargo container comes within 
range of scoop.  The container that you are intending to scoop up is not added 
to cargo hold after you make room.  

The same problem occurs when boarding the Marie Celeste, but it is easiest to 
reproduce with a battle.

I thought the same would be true when encountering a trader who wants to sell 
while I already have a full hold.  However, I notice that no trader tries to 
sell (only buyers  hail me) when I am full.   I guess my hull is transparent ;) 
 that leads to the next issue report..

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
      Dark Nova: 1.2
Android Droid X: 2.2.1 
 System Version: 2.3.340

Please provide any additional information below.
Note: I cannot set the severity or defect/enhancement flags.  Please change 
them as you see fit.

This seems like a potentially high value issue.  If the user doesn't happen to 
have any cargo holds available during a rare encounter, he may miss out on it 
altogether.

The enclosed screen capture shows the resulting empty cargo bay as I continue 
my flight to the target system.  In the previous screen I had attempted to 
jettison some cargo so I could pick up some valuable machines.  The cargo I 
selected was jettisoned, but the floating container was not added to my hold.

Thanks - this is a very difficult one to have picked up.

Did you actually experience the same issue with the Marie Celeste? This went 
through extensive testing and I tried to recreate but it worked fine.

The Pirate and Trader plundering is now fixed.

Marie celeste scenario works perfectly.  I finally hit that situation last
night with a full cargo load believe it or not!  However, I could swear that
my credits went DOWN when the cargo jettisoned.  That seems improbable so it
was probably just the end of warp charges.  However, if you do test the
scenario again, watch the credits at bottom left when you click plunder.
Dismiss this crazy talk if it remains the same.
