Hans the Butcher & Meat in a Pack

Not exactly a major bug, but still.

Returning from a hunting trip, with four portions of rothe meat (three stolen from a hunting spider, mind you), I talked to Hans. I was carrying the meat in a backpack, so I could drop it easily if I needed to run. I offered the meat to Hans, he said thank you, gave me the gold and I got my experience, but I was still heavily encumbered. I checked, but my pack was empty. Only thing I could do was to drop the empty pack and pick it up again. This solved the problem.

I'm almost certain this is an issue with the way that Bioware's code calculates the weight of containers.

Dang.

It doesn't matter too much when it happens like this, but if I happen to be below my Encumbered weight limit, carrying only one portion of rothe meat for example, this could be annoying, because I would only find it out later, when I'd take some more things to carry.

I can't understand how the Bioware engine can still be so buggy, especially the inventory, FIVE years after the game was released... *sighs* Oh well.

:(

All you need to do is log in and out, its happend to me many times.
