[incompatibility] partly working with mod "Equip Multiple Utility Items" - loss of EAQS inventory on load only(!)

Open l1m3r opened this issue 11 months ago • 1 comments

First of: Thank you all for a bunch of awesome mods and the lightning quick updates.

What's working

While playing with both mods (EAQS + Equip Multiple Utility Items) they work fine together. The only quirk is when you have equipped multiple utilities and any change happens in the inventory (eat, pick up, fire arrow, change weapon) the equipped items rotate through / switch places.

Problem

When you load a character that was saved with multiple active utilities EAQS empties out both the equipment and quick slots and only equips one of the remaining equipped utilities. -> You loose your current armor set and everything in the quick slots. :-( -> any autosave made by VH while your character had multiple utilities equipped is useless.

Steps to reproduce

Example:

  1. equip a set of troll armor, wishbone, whisplight & some potions.
  2. quit the current world.
  3. rejoin / start any world.

-> Troll armor set and the potions are just gone. Only the utility that was in the normal inventory when you saved @2. remains & is now alone in EAQS's utility slot.

Where I guess/think the problem might be

From the observed behavior I assume this:

  1. EAQS always checks for "active" armor/utilities anywhere in the characters vanilla inventory whenever a character is loaded(!) (for the times of loading characters with EAQS for the first time).
  2. If it finds anything in there it "thinks" this is the first time this character has been loaded with EAQS
  3. and doesn't check if there's already stuff inside the EAQS slots (or if they exist on this char at all?)
  4. thus it writes over the existing slots with a new empty set (except for that utility from the vanilla inventory).

Here is a soft fix. If you restore an old save to where your armor is equiped and then you use Valheim Player Editor to unequip the other item that is in your inventory when you load the save all your items wont disappear.
