Contents waterproof locker dissapear

[Zephides]

Like the title said.

I made a waterproof storage to hoard quartz, because we all know we need lots of those! Then I made a new waterproof storage for copper and was kinda planning to do so with materials I need the most until I can make a proper base for myself.

However in the short timespan of just a couple minutes, the contents were no longer there.

Does anybody else have this problem? I just started a new game and it was practically the first thing I build.

Same here, I built a Waterproof Locker because my inventory were getting full. Turns out that the Waterproof Locker isn't safe to store things in. I just hope regular lockers fare a bit better.

Just came here to report the same, few minutes and the container is empty again.

Happens to me as well, every time i swim away to harvest materials and come back everything is gone from the storage locker.

I just made a simple base with lockers for the time being. They seem safe so far to use!

Well, at least only your "contents" disappear. I had lockers floating around different areas of my base for different reasons pre-update. The update deleted all the lockers. Thankfully I didn't care about the stuff inside. Guess I know not to ever use these things again.

Same issue here, every time I swim away for a bit and return, the waterproof locker deletes anything in it.

Is it confirmed that this affects regular lockers too?

[Inaya]

I "assume" when folks are saying storage lockers above, they are referencing OP's comment on the Waterproof Lockers. As for my own game, I can confirm issues with the Waterproof "floating" Lockers (original ones disappeared after update for me; and, like others on this thread, new ones empty contents from time to time).

With regard to all other types of lockers, I have had no issues given large distances away (other major cells), time away, contents, or any other factor. Base locker, base wall locker, hand bags, Seamoth and Prawn storage, Cyclops storage, locker and wall locker on Cyclops, etc. - existing and new all seem to be fine. For me at least, seems to be limited to Waterproof Lockers.

Warning: I just lost items from the Luggage Bags too. Went on a trip to Aurora and stuffed items in the bags and puts the bags in my inventory. Once I was back in my base, the items were no longer there.

This wasn't an issue before the update.

Same here, base lockers seem to work though

Very interesting. Must be an inconsistent issue. I did the exact same thing (had to go to the Aurora yesterday because dumb*** me completely forgot about repairing the reactor. Pure coincidence, but I happened to do the same thing with the luggage bags as well. Already had 2 at base with stuff before the update; then grabbed 2 more after the update - no issue with contents on either set. Definitely not consistent.

After looking back through the last year though, it seems the locker contents disappearing is not a new thing and has come up after at least two updates in the past year (not including this one).

I'm also having the same issue with waterproof lockers. Contents disappear after a short time.

[King Lömpi]

the same as me. Also happen with the suitcases / bags. So i loose my Dino-Teddy, that i find in the aurora cabin. :-(

Normally regular lockers are fine, but today I installed some bulkheads in my base and something happened where all my lockers became completely empty. Over 20 of them, mostly full, the free-standing type. The one multipurpose room had been fine for a day and a half before the stuff went missing, the other mp room had just been filled with lockers, and the lockers with stuff.

Tom, if you are able and don't mind using the console since you lost it to a bug, you can use "item arcadegorgetoy 1" to get your stuffed animal back :)

Ativan, bulkheads can cause a couple of different issues, but I don't remember seeing that one before. That's a pain. I know if you use too many bulkheads, they can get stuck open or shut (and have to be deconstructed to pass thru). And it's a small number too, like 6 or something. I think I have 5 in mine and have been okay so far. Not sure if this could have caused your issue as well.
