Gold Eating Tree Outside Kingsman

Tonight I saw a very very odd and unfortunate bug happen to a character named Daxton.

There are two ways to barter...you can drag & drop the item on the character you want to barter with or you can right click and choose barter.

If the recipient is standing next to the tree right outside Kingsmans, and you use the Drag & Drop method for gold to initiate the barter, no barter screen opens, your combat log said you lost the gold, it does NOT appear on the ground and the intended recipient does not acquire it.

Daxton happen to have lost 1200 coins to this bug trying to buy a wand from Falwell while Falwell was standing by the tree.

I tested this using Flyne to barter with Daxton who then stood by the tree and I infact was able to duplicate the bug with consistency.

If the recipient moves away from the tree, the drag & drop method works just fine, opening the barter window, etc.

You can probably see in EFUSL that Daxton lost the gold and Falwell never received it. There were a half dozen other players there as witnesses as well including Dedric Tolle and Shana Marshal, as well as myself and Falwell.

Can this be fixed? and, hopefully, can a DM please kindly return the gold to Daxton (and no, I don't play Daxton).

Cheers!

An old nwn bug. Impossible to fix, always better to use the barter screen when you trade gold rather than dragging the gold to prevent such.

Edit: it's not limited to particular spots, you can feed gold into just about any placeable!
