Hello and happy new year!
I've run into this problem, and I've seen it on another mud running TBA as well.
Problem: Kill a mob. Great, autoloot gives 10 gold. Kill another of that same exact mob and get "seems to be empty." And it is! Because the 2nd mob I just killed is 2.corpse and I'm autolooting from the first mob.
I'd like to investigate - any tips on where things are stacked? I'm running a fairly clean version of TBA (just dropped in my world files and didn't mess around with fight.c or act.items.c).
Thanks!
