Help please. My entire starship seems to have ended up in the overflow bag.

peterconnorfirst

Hey devs.

My starship, a Fleet Dauntless, seems to have ended up in my overflow bag (just says “starship” on black icon with Starfleet insignia).

-> Can’t be taken out cuz I get the message that my inventory is full (which isn’t; I also have free ship slots and dry dock slots).

-> Ship in overflow bag also can’t be discarded (and probably shouldn’t; fleet ship/gear).

-> Now, reward containers of any kind can’t be opened because there is something in my overflow bag.

-> Bug puts character progression on hold.

Please assist.

Thanks.

Woah...that's...umm...WTF?!? How does the code even do this?!?

Thanks for reply coldnapalm.

I’m surprised as well. On my other toons there weren’t any issues aside from duplicate items. Those can be freely taken out of the overflow bag so that general game play is not interrupted.

In the other thread somebody also experienced that problem with the fleet dauntless starship so I conclude it seems be limited to it.

Atm I can’t do much as to put the character on hold as the inventory would soon drown in reward container which can’t be opened. Hehe, at least I have 12 more slots now.

For a min I thought the item in the bag is just the admiralty card of the fleet dauntless but it really seems to be my main ship in use. The icon in the bag is the same you see when claiming a new ship.

Hope devs sort it out soonsh. I love the fleet Daunless verry much but don't seem to be able to handle two of them on the same toon.

I also have the same issue on my main character. When I logged in last night there were multiple items in overflow. Predominantly the items were all gold items that you can not have more than one per character (tribbles etc) I deleted dups and attempted to retrieve the "Starship" and got the message inventory is full and it can not be deleted. So I have the same inventory issue of not being able to open certain items because something is in overflow.

"Overflow" is a nice idea except it doesn't act as an overflow should. With 54 free slots in my inventory, one would think I have enough room... For items to end up in overflow, it would require to get 54 items, let them all sit in my inventory (which, obviously, wasn't the case for this character), and them get a 55th item that would spawn an overflow...

I don't see how more than 54 items would suddenly appear in my inventory when I haven't done anything to explain such an avalanche of items. It was fine still up to a few days ago.

Why can't I even open the overflow?

I have the same problem with my main character. I've tried 'discarding' it as well, but it doesn't do anything. Filed a bug report...

Thanks for replies peeps. Helps a bit hat knowing that others have this problem too so I’m hopeful Cryptic acts soon upon it.

I refrained from trying out any workarounds for the time being. Theoretically it should be possible to dismiss the actual ship you fly after putting out the gear and then simply claim the copy in overflow bag and putting the gear back on.

However this is too risky for my taste. Could easily be that cryptic’s fix solution would issue a game-wide deletion of all duplicate items which then would delete the copy of our ships but with all the gear right along with it.

Sadly there is nothing about this in todays patch notes, not even under known issues.

I hope cryptic realizes that this bug renders any toons who have it useless because they are blocked from progression.

Hey everybody,
I have the same problem with the dauntless
(common nameless star ship item in overflow bag that can't be deleted nor transferred to inventory).
I didn't file ticket in game but rather on arc. The ticket gets actually registered , and hopefully ...........solved

Same here. My Dauntless got copied to my overflow bag and I can't open any boxes. I probably have over 50 unopened now. Several people have said the same thing and they also appear to have a Dauntless ship in their overflow.
