PC So, encumbrance is turned off for A17.2?

Although the inventory slots display the "encumbered" icon, no matter how much I carry I don't get the encumbered debuff and my speed never changes.

Bug or new feature? (I'm guessing bug.)

 
I have that issue among others in my dedicated server but not on a single player with the same map and settings with no mods on a fresh install so it is a multiplayer problem I would assume????

 
This is a new SP RWG map, but I didn't wipe and reinstall. I'll be honest, I'm not in a hurry to fix this one. :)

 
Very new install, solo player on navez, no encumber at all. and all the other bugs ( like stamina issue even with skills)

 
I have the same problem, played with freinds on dedicated private server, they did NOT have the issue, but i did...now I am playing solo, same problem...I have also had stamina issues, only solution is to go in and then out of God mode to solve stamina issues...does not help with the No encumbrance issue though...has to be a bug.

Same, I hope they remove it entirely its a stupid system. WHy give us a bigger inv int he first place (that starts out smaller than it was in a16) if your going to make us turn into sloths for using it. Its bad enough armor slows you down so much and wrecks yoru stam regen when moving so badly that I rarely ever bother to use it. Both were pretty bad decisions imo.

Dont get your hopes up, its a bug. I agree that wearing armor is annoying early-mid game. But when you have 5/5 sex rex and 5/5 cardio with improved fittings on every piece I am sure it is no problem, and intended to be that way. It does make wearing armor all the time pretty intolerable until then though.

I notice that cloth armor has no encumber on it now in 17.2 so there is that now I guess. Not sure about leather.

 
Having the same issue where there's no encumbrance, also problems with food and water, can't drown underwater, etc. Validated all files, not using mods, started multiple new maps, no debug menu or god mode on of any kind.

Did notice that sitting underwater at one point actually gave me the Drink buff for stam regen, but couldn't reproduce it after a second attempt.

Personally, I like the encumbrance system. Adds a layer of choices and difficulty, having to decide early on what you're taking with you or leaving behind. Not saying it's perfect, but it does put you in a position where having to decide if something is worth the movement loss. Since we don't have an actual weight system to contend with (which i wouldn't be against, but it would be more problematic), the encumbrance system is a generally good addition.

What is the Stamina issue?

I agree that this system creates the need for more inventory micromanagement - makes us check our slots and drop items every once in a while, so that we don't get the debuff. I want a inventory "progression" system, but something more intuitive, or a simple hard-capped backpack system.

 
Its been reported, confirmed, and added to known issues list now.
Looking at how it's described in the Known Issues list...

"Player Killing" modes : "no killing" & "kill allies only" cause some buffs and e.g. falling damage not to work
...it's not just limited to the Encumbrance buff not working, and the work-around is to switch the "Player Killing" option to a different setting.

I'll give that a shot. Since i play solo, changing that won't hurt me any. Thanks for the work around. :)

 
Hi Ghost.

once and a while i just notice, that my stamina disapperes rapidly even though I have SexTRex lvl 1 or 2 and Cardio, I go in to debug and God mode, then back, and the stamina is normal again, I guess its related to the bug in this topic, I hope they fix it soon, i miss being vulnarble to encumarance etc =)
