''A note about implementation: the containers as they are implemented now, can not be equipped or dropped unless they are empty. Also they do |
|||
not have an user visible slot unless they are equipped by the user. This affects the behaviour regarding several of the questions below. |

Expected: empty containers can be placed in chests. |
|||
;are there weight or size limits for stackability? |
;are there weight or size limits for stackability? |
||
There are no hard coded limits. Items do not have useful weights so they can't be used. Containers obey allowed slot limits like any other item. |
|||
;can they infinitely stack (bag in bag in bag, like we used to have when corpses were equippable?) |
;can they infinitely stack (bag in bag in bag, like we used to have when corpses were equippable?) |
||
Technically there is no practical limit, so slot restrictions should be used. That is, it's not a good idea to allow placing an item with a bag slot to a bag slot (or a mutual loop either). Putting a keyring to an item with a bag slot should work fine. |

;if you die can a whole bag/keyring be dropped? |
||
Expected: empty, non-bound containers can be dropped. Containers with items can not be dropped because it would be impossible to pick up the container, or take out any items. Items within containers can be dropped normally at death. |
|||
;can they be dropped into a corpse on the ground? |
;can they be dropped into a corpse on the ground? |

Expected: yes, when empty. |

Expected: should obey the normal binding rules. |

;can they be traded? |

Expected: yes, but only if not bound and empty. |

;do they expire if dropped? |

Expected: should expire normally. |
|||
;is the number of non empty containers per character limited? |
|||
It is not at the moment. But hendrik thinks that would be very useful in order to prevent people from filling their bag with containers. With a limited number of non empty containers, there will be incentive to get larger containers as replacement for smaller ones. |
