recycle bug

[mebreasta]

if u have a saved filler number say 10000, u can put that into the recycler instead, and it recycle the amount listed without removing the items, just thought this should get fixed

"saved filler number say 10000,"


What is that?

[mebreasta]

Google chrome has those catches fillins like when ur producing 10k of something it saves the number so u can double click and click the number instead of typing it, well in this case of u do that it dosent reset it to the max of 100, and u can recycle the whole 10k but it dosent remove them from the inventory so u can do it over and over again

Didn't work for me with Firefox It simply recycled all the stuff I've entered via prefillment form.

DId you try using 1000

in _theory_ the most you should be able to recycle at one time is 100

I tested it by clicking the field. In google chrome a list of available amounts is displayed. Conveniently, there was 1000 available and surprise it STAYED in the field without auto correcting it when I clicked it. I checked the recycler history, the last 200 items where shown to be from that 1 click. Unfortunately, the history only holds 200 items.

I would consider this a hidden feature since it does not cause any apparent problems.

I've recycled 500 bronze masks back then, and they dissapeared. So far I agree with Pangloss, it's just a convenient feature Oh, also, after I clicked it after using the pre-fillment form, I've received a page error. After that I've reentered the game and found out that all 500 got recycled.

I tried it too -
Bronze Masks - 1000 - It did remove 1000 from my inventory.

So I would say too, that it is s feature - a short-cut if you will - had I retained the 1000 Masks, it would be a bug.

Firefox here, recycled an amount larger than 100 via pre-fillment form. Got a not-found error/crash page, returned back and the items were recycled. The reason there's a limit of 100 is to make it take less of a toll on the server and avoid any large amounts which can crash the game for everyone else. Say 1000 or 10000 isn't enough to crash it, but what would happen if you were to recycle 1 mil at a time? Scary thoughts..

I bump this thread and confirm mebreasta's post. If you recycle more than 5k of items the page crashes, you get the recycling loot but the items stay. Tried this several times with different items, had the same result. If not treated this bug can disbalance and ruin the game.
