Moving Items Directly To The Cart | Thwarting Your Encumbrance Limit

Moving Items Directly To The Cart

This bug allows you to go to a dead body, or shop that you are stealing from, and move items directly to your cart instead of "Remove"-ing them to your arms, then showing the Inventory and moving it to the cart.

Go to a shopkeeper that you can sell to, click "Sell," and then click on the "Wagon" button. This will show the wagon on the left side of the buttons. Now click on the "Exit" button. Done!

This bug will be reset when: (a) you load a game, (b) you click on any of the upper tabs. You can look at your inventory, but don't click the tabs.

This bug has been seen in all versions up to 1.06.200 (which I am currently at).

Thwarting Your Encumbrance Limit

Your encumbrance is directly tied to your STR. However, when you place an item in your cart, it marks it with a weight of zero. If you then "remove" that item to your arms, it always goes, even if you are over your encumbrance limit. When it gets into your arms, it again has a weight, so you cannot move it right back to gain a "wagon of holding."

Of course, now you cannot pick anything up, even an end of quest item (Here's your gold -- but you cannot pick it up!). This is obviously only good at certain times.
