Small items get stuck in map

[gyrotim]

I have encountered a problem where items such as knives and swords got stuck in the ground. I tried time and time again but it was impossible to pick them up so I had no choice but to leave them there. I do hope it's possible to fix this glitch.

Is this in shadow warrior?
I had a problem with rocks in a workshop map
Is it like there's a sword on the floor and it won't pickup at all and just making grab sounds?
Or maybe you loaded a really old save
I'm not sure if these are related

Nope, I just got the game a couple days ago. A sword got stuck at the bottom of the incinerator without actually being incinerated in the shadow warrior map. It just stayed there and I couldn't do anything. Same thing happened in the frostbite map, a small knife got stuck in the wall of ice at the cave.

That's odd as I've never had knives or swords ever get stuck
Wall of ice cave sounds like the curse of the digrocks
In a workshop map I made rocks out of the same rocks the ice cave is made from
After the recent game update I was unable to pickup my modded rocks at all so I fixed my rocks
Devs know what I'm talking about=curse of the digrocks returns:)

Is anyone else having these problems?

Can try setting the physics option higher in the main menu options?

Still I'm unsure I'll load up frostbite later n see if the ice freaks out on me too
But ice cave never had knives get stuck on me
Swords etc allways burned in the fire in shadow warrior too

Ya might be on to something but I'm not sure yet as I'm not sure if there's a new bug or not!

It's just a physics bug, the nodes on smaller items can more easily pass through other items when placed at sharper angles. The less nodes there are (like on the edge of a knife) the more easily they can pass through other items. I just hope they fix this bug.

nothing wrong with swords and knives in shadow warrior on my end even the very tip of a sword wont go inside the floor etc and they burn in both fires just fine
pile of swords was ok too

but frostbite this is a new one=

something with the landscape(is why i use terrain in mods) and i could put that tray inside the walls
that never used to happen only bullet shells use to do that?
the cups n trays etc dont do that anywhere else exept for digsite/ice cave rocks and landscapes(not terrain as no collision headache on terrain)
landscape is hard to work with without that happening when making a workshop map?

the rock bug i had was different as it was a mod that lets the janitor pick rocks up:)

Other than that in frostbite everything else in every level seems fine:)

Another problem I want to address is that limbs can get stuck through the disposal bins and send them flying around the map. It's infuriating!

that doesnt sound right
unless your client joining a server that has really slow internet or if make so much mess that the red server saturation message appears

I don't join servers, I only go solo.

Yeah sometimes, if you have an arm in the bottom of your bin and overfill it or if you slam a bin onto an arm, they'll get stuck in it.

You need to calm down and get used to the game instead of keep raging.

If something gets stuck in the map or on/in something just mop it until it frees itself.

Until you have done this they will not be able to be picked up, do it and they should eventually be free and I can't remember anything that ever got stuck competely.

People don't have 100s/1000s of hours in this game for nothing, you have to be patient and learn how it works.

Exactly
But something fishy with the frostbite cave floor
after the game update though:)
It was fine before the update:)
Everything else is fine=works properly:)
I rarely see a single object get stuck!

That doesn't excuse the glitches in this game, limbs getting stuck in bins is simply annoying. That being said, I enjoy the game when it's working properly.

There are some items that will get stuck once in a while. It's just the physics of the game. When an object gets stuck there are a few options

A. If you can whack it with the mop, it sometimes gets unstuck
B. If it is stuck in the ground and you cannot see it, let it go. Some items once they are so stuck in the ground will sometimes disappear but not always.
C. Use the welder to burn it up. If you can see the item, whacking it doesn't work, then try burning it.
D. If something is so stuck, sets the sniffer off, try saving then reloading the map.
E. If nothing from above works, when clocking off do the extra paperwork to get extra points if the stuck item will count against you. The extra paperwork covers some lost points %

Don't get too wound up about a stuck item. If you are OCD or perfectionist then I suggest you relax. Some game engines will allow clipping and developers sometimes have no control over the engine. Enjoy
