SDBs only hold 998 items? No - The word Stacks is missing from the description - so as you were!

From the Encyclopedia entry

"Storage Display Box - For the pragmatic showoff in everyone, a box with hidden depths. Not only can you display your prized possessions, but you can tuck 998 of the exact same prized possession behind it, for safekeeping."

I hope it means 998 stacks

  • i think the item cap is around 60k items, in stacks...it would take a while to fill one with meat or rocks or dead glitchen.

    wait, the glitchen go under the flower bed...my bad..

  • I think one of the devs posted in the forums that amount, up to 60k items, in stacks, iirc.

    1000 stacks of meat, 60 in a stack...you get the picture.  It will take ages to fill one of them up.

    Esp if you do like I do and hug the meat a lot, which makes it un-stackable and kind of warm n clammy.

    ..Off to go hug some now...

  • So far I've managed to stuff almost 20,000 planks into one.  No problems.

  • Up to now they held 1000 stacks of whatever it was.  I had a full meat SDB with 60k meat in it.

    We can't know for sure if they will work differently when things come up for real.

  • @Marla: yes but that was before the reset. The Glitch Encyclopaedia now says 998 items, it's quoted verbatim above

  • Well, also, I think that it means 998 in addition to the 1 you are displaying, for 999.  My guess is it will be 999 stacks, or continue to be 1000 stacks and someone subtracted 1 from the total too many times before writing the description.
