Bug - Fixed acquire won't buy coffee pixie sticks without already having tickets

[fxer]

[2011Jun28 10:55p] <REDACTED> just say 'acquire' won't buy coffee pixie sticks unless you already have the required number of game grid tickets in your inventory

 

[Veracity]

Working as intended.

 

[fxer]

also previously calling use(pixie) would buy the sticks if you had tickets in inventory but now fails, is that the new permanent outcome?

 

[Veracity]

No. That would be a bug. Unrelated to the "not a bug" in the original post, which was asking for something which was never previously possible.

 

[Veracity]

Actually, no. That is due to a new preference which you need to set. Go to Preferences/General and check "Buy items with tokens at coin masters whenever needed."

I went back and checked because I was positive older versions would buy tickets if necessary.

buy didn't work in the old version, but that was expected. I don't remember the revision, but I'm pretty sure someone had added at least the pixie stick as a special case so acquire would work. Edit: Ah yeah, r8510

OK. Try revision 9532.
