Drop items

[Weylon Santana]

I was going to ask this in the chat, but this is the place
@jcsnider, is it your intention for the intersect to duplicate items for each party member?

 

For example:
A monster drops 90 gold (https://prnt.sc/11nntg9)
If you have two party members drop 2 lots of 90 gold (https://prnt.sc/11nnqvn)
If you have three party members drop 3 lots of 90 gold (https://prnt.sc/11nnnql)
etc..

 

Or is this a bug?

I was testing this with some friends and we found it in the latest version (xxxx.111)

I think it might be a leftover from Leafling's code changes that were spliced into intersect.

 

If you turn on loot ownership and hide items unless you're able to loot them it should at least stop showing it for people other than the owner for a while until it becomes free game.

 

It could be a bug depending on what you want I suppose. Might be worth making this behaviour an option.

for me that would be a bug, it doesn't make sense. if a boss drops 1 rare item, and has 4 members in the pt, will he drop that rare item 4x?

I don't know how much made it over, but the original code would roll separate rolls for each party member. So every party member has a CHANCE at getting the drop.

Would be nice to make that a toggle. Otherwise people in party's will have a massive advantage over solo players.

I will mark it as the best answer, I do not see it as a bug. It's nice that everyone has their drop while partying.

What I would worry about is 1 player opening 4 clients with 4 different accounts and dropping items insanely into his main account.
