Damn! I really did do a search , but I didn't get these results...


If your playing multiplayer, heres the reason.

Client tells to server it activates tractor beam. Client displays graphic of tractorbeam picking things up. Server adds the item to clients inventory. If clients inventory is full, nothing happens. So your client thinks that your ship stores more than the server thinks it stores. The result, and Endless tractor beam from your ship to the loot until you go out of range (but only you can see it).

Alternatively, you can use the Search Forums link above, and set it to search ALL forums. This should fix all of your future searching problems.

The search tool on this forum isn't too rebust really, half of the time I can't even find my own posts even with 100% surely exist keywords.
