Description

Crafting arrows doesn't work properly.
Loading the bow with arrows is resulting in one shot with 5 arrows at the same time.
Arrows stuck in a tree can't be taken over the UI-View.
Splitting the corrupt arrow-stack results in problems with rearranging.

Steps To Reproduce

Take a stack of five feathers and a stack of five sharpened sticks. Dragging the feathers over the sticks is resulting in a stack with 5 arrows but only one feather is used, four are left.

When loading the bow with this 5-arrow-stack your "magazine" is invisible.
Now when you are shooting on a tree, all five arrows are fired at the same time.
Stuck in the tree they are not visible in the UI when you're standing in front of them.
Take them by focussing with the crosshair, you get the stack back, but the problem remains.

Rearanging the stack with "split" and "combine" makes things more worse.

Hello Mow and thank you for the report.
I have tested this both on our internal version and on the stable version, but I was unfortunately unable to reproduce these issues. The issues could be related to server performance, but in case the issue occurs to you once again and you come across any info that could help us, please post it here.
Regards,
Geez

I call it the miraculous multiplication of arrows:

First-person only server:
I placed one sharpened stick on the ground, dragged a stack of 20 feathers above it and got a stack of 5 arrows. Oh, and it consumes just one feather! The catch is, if I try to load these arrows by dragging them above the bow, the background of arrows turns red. So I can't load. It might be though, that the bow was already loaded by a former try and I just can't see the magazine as stated above. I haven't tried to shoot because I thought I can't load anyway.

I can reproduce the error every time.

Cutting some branches. Splitting them into thirds.
First thing that goes wrong: If I choose "sharpen a stick" the game creates 5 sharpend sticks instead of one. If I choose "sharpen all stick" it creates allso the five, what is to be expected in this case.
If I drag a stack of 5 feathers on to this stack of five, it creates 5 arrows, but uses only one of the feathers. If I drag one feather on a single sharpened stick, it also creates five arrows .. wow.
Could be nice, but if I drag the stack of five arrows onto my bow, the bow is only loaded with one arrow. And the "magazin" is not shown as mentioned.
In any case I'm not able to load the bow with 5 arrows.

Hello mow.
The arrow crafting inconsistencies are known and have been acknowledged in #0028482. But above in this ticket, you are describing that you have been able to load 5 arrows and shoot them at the same time. Has this issue occurred to you since the report?

Geez

Perhaps I interpreted the wrong way what was going on, and the mess of different arrow stacks in my bagpack suggested that I fired 5 arrows at the same time. Sorry for that, but I have no proof that it was so.

No worries. I will keep the ticket open for now in case the issue with splitting/combining and firing multiple arrows has occurred again.
