Title: [0997G] Interacting with items on floor doesn't register them as seen
Post by: bwross on April 02, 2013, 05:58

The problem here is that using the special mod packs/skulls or scavenging exotics/uniques (with MSc) from the floor without ever picking them up doesn't register them as seen in the player's history.  There are a number of potential problems... certainly this affects getting the badges for seeing these items.  But it might go further than that... if scavenging a unique isn't registered this way, then it might be generated a second time, even though it's been destroyed.  Something that has just occurred to me is that if equipping from the floor also bypasses registering the item, then there's a chance that a lucky player might be able to dual wield GCBs.

Fixed for using from the ground, but not for scavenging yet, as that is a separate issue.  It seems like that might be a little tricky with the way we refactoring the item tracking.

Just make sure you're on a gun kata build.

Definitely...

Better yet, how about a Malicious Blades build, dual-wielding Butcher's Cleavers!  :D
