Seems to be a one off

~~Start day
Go outside of house
Press [P] (keyboard) or Right Joy Stick (Xbox controller) to enter Farm View Mode
Stay in Farm View Mode for a few minutes (more than a days length? 10min?)
Press [Esc] (keyboard), [P] (keyboard) or Right Joy Stick (Xbox controller) to exit Farm View Mode
Observe

Expected Result: Player has all their tools and nothing is missing from their Inventory
Actual Result: Player is missing some of their tools from their inventory
Repro Rate: 33.33% (1/3 attempts)

Steam, PC
v1.1-1226

Path: Improbable (average user is unlikely to encounter this issue due to uncommon user path)
Severity: Low - if encountered, issue is game breaking, user unable to progress in game.
Work around: exit game without sleeping/saving. Re-start day. All tools are back. Progress lost.~~

#

Annoying if encountered, but game isn't forever lost. However, if the user saves their game with their tools missing, they might have an un-playable game from there on out

#

So, this has a potential to be a high impact issue.
However, again, the user path is improbable. Aka, not many people are gonna be sitting around in the Farm View Mode for more than a few seconds or minutes.
It's a risky one

#

I only encountered this once, so for now the Repro is 1/1 100%

Not sure. I kinda freaked out and didn't want to lose my progress so I exited the game without sleeping and reloaded the save to get my tools back

#

I'll see if I can repro second time

#

Although, even if they DO re-appear, I think whilst the severity could be lowered, the issue is that - if the player doesn't know that their missing tools could be found at the blacksmith, they could still believe that their tools are missing and the game is broken. It would be hard for an average user to search for the needed information, find it and implemented. They could just as easily re-install the game in hopes that it would fix the issue

#

Considering how much effort it would be, I think the severity would still be pretty high

#

But fwiw, I've got a timer over here and I'm seeing if I can get a repro after 10 min of waiting in Farm View mode

#

oh i agree. just curious if theres an answer for if someone runs into said issue and it hasnt been fixed yet

#

Fair enough. But yeah, the work around is also just exiting the game without sleeping/saving, which is what I did. I think that one is more intuitive of a work around

#

Compared to going to the blacksmith I mean. Anyways, just shooting info

Work smarter, not harder, my guy 👍

#

No repro after waiting 16 min. Gonna attempt to play around with it a little bit

#

Ok, I can't repro it again.
Attempted for the 3rd time and after waiting for 30min, everything seems to be fine. Might have just been a one off.
Disregard this ticket

Downgrading to Low Severity
