Ability to overfill containers

Recommended Posts

Date and time (provide timezone): 1/26/2023 3:11:00 UTC (However this was tested awhile ago, just took a bit to make this)

Character name: Swarles Bridge

Issue/bug you are reporting: Players are able to overfill containers if the vol is changed by any mean other than the script that handles players storing, removing or placing items.

Example: A player has 200 empty water bottles which are just a vol of 20 and can sit in a 200 vol vehicle or crate without issue. However if a player were to right click and fill these bottles, they could exceed their containers limit and have 400/200vol. Theoretically a player could store 2000 full water bottles in a 200 vol vehicle if they abused this mechanic to the fullest extent. I am unsure if there are other scripts that have a potential to interact with vol outside of the current expected means, this is the only instance I have found.

Expected behavior:  A 200vol container should only hold 200vol, a script message should indicate there isnt enough room for the items or to simply drop the excess to the ground

Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate: get 20 vol worth of empty bottles and then fill them in container that you otherwise wouldnt be able to transfer that many full bottles into, the watter bottle will fill without issue and the vol capacity will be over the maximum.

Vehicle license plate number*: N/A

Has been reported before; https://forum.eclipse-rp.net/topic/84105-empty-water-bottles-refill-goes-above-the-inventory-limit/
Pretty sure devs/staff are aware of it, and hopefully they're just leaving it be until they can add a hotfix and/or replacement for refilling water bottles as it completely destroys cooking drugs in private labs primarily.

Personally, I don't think this bug should be fixed for now until there's a replacement but I had to report it as bugs are meant to be reported.

However, for a replacement, they should add a sink in furniture store that supports refilling water bottles through a WIM and costs like $50,000 to buy (could be more, since it'll be up forever and available for everyone) where when you refill water bottles, there's a 0.5s for each bottle being refilled making it 25 seconds to refill 50 water bottles. 🙂
