You know, the one where your weapon drops without pressing the drop key.. ya that one.

At the moment, you just need to "know" how many slots the item you want to pick will take.
If you don't have that many slots left, what do you want to have ?
An ingame text :-sorry, no slots left. Drop an item first.

Not that one.
For no apparent reason or combination of mouse and keystrokes unrelated to the drop weapon command, my character will drop weapon. Perhaps it is having an unsheathable weapon, but no. Comprendez?

I think you just accidently hit G without realizing it, I do it all the time.

That would be a consideration, except I've mapped drop weapon to P.

I suggest if you have the strength run around with a flamberge for a while.

I used a flamberge for quite a while and never experienced this "bug". Have you tried mapping switch weapon and shield to something other than your mouse wheel? My guess is you're accidentally scrolling the mouse wheel, causing you to drop unsheathable weapons.

My guess is you're doing something wrong.

not sure it's the same bug - but sometimes you spawn without some items that must be in third or fourth slot. I've experienced this with archer and thrower chars, and my slot distribution is (bow\arrows\twohander or throwing\throwing\polearm). And if I choose (1slottwohander\bow\arrows\arrows) then sometimes I spawn without any arrows.

Definitely not the same bug, I know which one you refer to.

I suspect my mouse:
logitech M570
Using buttons 1,2 as normal, button 5 kick.

Might be it's the bug I get.

I'm typing something in chat and write a word with the letter "g" in. Even though my chat bar is up, it drops my weapon. Kinda lol anyway. Same goes for L and opening the log.

That sounds like just about the most annoying bug ever.

It's more hilarious than annoying. I don't usually type unless I'm safe.

Although when I don't notice it and are about to enter a fight and I realize my weapon is back at spawn.... priceless xD

I get that same problem zapper, though more often it is L opening the chat log while I am typing with the chat window open. It must be a spike in ping making the server see your input of "L" (or G in your case) but skipping the packet of information saying "this guy is typing a message."

Probably not something that can be fixed. Rarely happens, but it's annoying when it does!

I was annoyed by it in the start, but after I started imagining it as a fly flying into my eye and temporarily blind me, it started being fun :D

Typing/chat/opening windows is entirely client side, so it cannot be lag related. Does it happen when you type in team chat/chat or player2admin/admin2player chat? In the former case it's definitely an engine bug, in the latter it's just modding limitations.

Both actually. And it's pretty rare, but happens often enough that I'm used to it. Mostly happens when I run while typing.

Shit I figured it out...
drop weapon on P... so what.
Sheathe weapon on Z - unsheathable weapon gets dropped.

sigh.
