whetstone stacking bug

[open shoal]

Whenever I use a whetstone it increases the amount of material drop % and time, as it's intended. But whenever I use 2 whetstones I don't get any drops whatsoever (from the hills giant at least). I think this happens because the drop % increase stacks and that the max drop % is either 100 or the standard 8 bits (128) and the stacking then causes the % to overflow into the negative % as bit overloading does with java. It could be because of different reasons but this is my main theory. This would mean that if you use 3 whetstones you get drops for the first 2.5 minutes, none the following 2.5 minutes, and nearly 100% drop rate the last 2.5 minutes (on hills giants).

I think you should fix this by increasing max drop % so that you could get multiple drops for 1 kill, but it's most likely easier to just stop the code from letting the stacking happen.

On Android, latest game version.

using multiple temporary items only increases duration
not effect

then i must be a very unlucky man to not get a single drop the first 2.5 minutes

whetstone increases chance for an enemy to drop materials to 75%
if yuo don't get anything in 2.5 minutes something is wrong

thats why i think theres something wrong

It doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong you could be full on nats or be very unlucky

The best way to tell is looking in your stats page when you use whetstone as it tells you your drop chance

If I wasn't extremely unlucky, it might have been fixed. Just tested and seems to work as intended now.

How do I mark this as resolved?
