Cabinet Glitches?

I just came back from a couple days break from being really busy - and I'm sitting here checking out the storage cabinets, thinking they are going to work like the storage boxes. Well, first of all... I put a cabinet in my house, one on both floors to see if that would affect anything. In the downstairs cabinet I planned to have all my cooking supplies, like ingredients, sauces etc.

- I open the cabinet after getting all my stuff into my inventory to put into it and the cabinet floats up to the top of the screen and gets stuck there in an inconvenient place. 

- When trying to add all of the same item to the cabinet - only one stack fits in each slot. (If this is how they are meant to be, I suggest making it act like the storage boxes and putting all of them in one instead of making people use up multiple places for one sort of ingredient or item). 

- "Back to World" and various other features are unusable when the cabinet is open and there is no way to close it. The "Done" button does NOT show up. To exit my cabinet after messing with it, I am forced to reload the game. 

- When changing the style of the cabinet, the new cabinet seems to 'float' off the ground by a few inches until the game is reloaded. 

In an attempt to remedy the situation, I uninstalled and reinstalled my Adobe Flash, and cleared all cookies and cache on my browser going back "to the end of time" for all pages that I frequent. It doesn't bother me much yet, but I didn't know if this was happening to anyone else.

  • Bags can be put in cabinets, btw :) That may help.

    As for floating cabinets, you might want to submit an in-game bug report.

  • Some of the cabinets are wall cabinets, some go on the floor. Only one stack per item is how it has always been for regular cabinets.  As Millie said, bags would help this issue.

    where I expressed my disappointed that the cabinets didn't work like SDBs grouped together

    Bees! said  
    "And if I have more than one bag of a resource it will take up more than one slot" - this is by design. cabinets are not meant to be infinite storage. if you're a hoarder, storage is supposed to be a challenge."

    But later says
    "ahh, we've talked about doing something like that - a display case made of several SDBs, counters with storage slots, etc."

  • This should probably go in bugs, fyi.

  • I believe the floating cabinet is a known Bug.  These do work like the cabinets in the old house.  I have 3 of them and they are filled mostly with bigger bags as was the cabinet in my old house.
