Bug - Fixed Inventory not updating quantity of item drops after combat properly?

Noticed this on the latest build, after combat if a tattered scrap falls mafia doesn't appear to increment its count of scraps, reporting the same number before and after the drop. However on the following combat adv, even if no scrap drops, mafia will report the correct amount of scraps.

LOG:

> inv tatt

tattered scrap of paper (209) <-- Correct amount

> call farm 1

inv tatter (pre adv) = 209 <-- Still correct

I know the second part happens because Mafia notices your combat item count and updates it respectively, but I don't remember entirely why Mafia gets out of sync in the first place.

One other thing to check is your scrap collection in the relay browser Veracity, see if it stays in line with what "inv scrap" says. Also I logged into another account with a slightly older Mafia version (r8696) and found the same problem:

So... what's different between what fxer is doing (or has set) and what everyone else using KoLmafia is doing? Because despite the code parsing the inventory update, for some reason it's not processing it. One question... fxer, are you using self-compiled versions or downloaded pre-compiled editions?

Just using the daily builds, I guess I'll try it with some other item drops and see if they give the same result

One more question... which OS? Trying to see if we can find SOMEthing that's unique about your case. :)

Vista with all the latest patches, I have KoL on a dropbox folder so I suppose I can try the exact same setup but from an XP install as well

I've been playing with this a bit further and still have the same problem, tattered scraps drops aren't tallied until after the next combat adventure. Interestingly this is also the case with inkwells for me, from this combat:

[790] Haunted Library
Encounter: writing desk
You acquire an item: disintegrating quill pen
You acquire an item: inkwell
You acquire an item: snifter of thoroughly aged brandy
You acquire an item: llama lama gong

The gong/brandy/pen registered as drops in session results immediately, but not the inkwell. I tested this a few times and all the drops except tatters and inkwells appear to register immediately. Does that help narrow down what might be happening at all? Does it have something to do with those items are combat usable?

It's clearly something to do with them being combat items.
Strange that it doesn't screw up, ever, for me.

Just tried it on the fantasy airship and the photoprotoneutron torpedo doesn't show up immediately but the other drops do, so I guess it is all zones.

So here is some weird crap, on another account I used build r8728 and combat items showed up immediately. I updated to r8772 and they stopped registering. I went back to r8728 and now that build would not register them immediately either!

I just tried r8728 on my account where I first noticed the problem and it wouldn't register combat items right away, no matter what build I used.

Is that any help?

Fixed in 8830, we assume: this was an issue only for those who run with the WOWbar enabled. Unlike me.

I have not seen any problems as of lately, so I would agree that it is fixed. I use the WOWbar (horrible name, but that's just my dislike of WOW that comes through) so should've been affected.
