guige strap issues

Post by Yemin » Sun Feb 15, 2015 7:23 am

On one of my characters Xand his guige strap is misbehaving.

You sling your shield over your back.
You stop using a rose tinted steel heavy shield set with aquamarines.
There is already one in there.

I used to be able to fix this by just unslinging or slinging a couple of times regardless. but I'm having real problems with this item now all of a sudden.
I trained up double-edged bananas because the uber-plantain of doom I scored from the beehive quest was the best weapon in the game. Now it's being treated like a bug and they have gimped its damage! That's not fair! My character is ruined!

Are you making sure to use the keyword 'shield' in full when dealing with this item?
A goblin, a trickster, a warrior? A nameless terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. A most feared being in all the cosmos. Nothing could stop, hold, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.

I was in way of that I have an alias for it. But I managed to get it back to the status quo of multiple slinging / unslinging for it to begin behaving normally again.

The guige strap works on a QBIT that you can break, but repair fairly easily. The ways you might break this are if you were to:

Code: Select all

put shield guige
and then...

Code: Select all

get red guige
(using any keyword for the object other than shield or its type of shield [rondache, heater, etc])

...because now it will remove the object from the guige, but not remove the QBIT which tells it that something is inside of it. You should be able to repair it by simply doing...

Code: Select all

get shield guige
