voted stacks- simply because lazy... I’m sure most of those that pick it will pick for the same reason

personally bundles/stacks wouldn’t be a make or break thing tho, I’d still play either way if it’s a decent server it makes not a lot of diff

thats still a stack where as i think that having each pot fill a space makes the game more challenging with having to manage your inventory and bag space better

ill show you what i did, all i did was make a script item to look like a bundle

when the player uses the item it runs this script in 00Default

it then just works exactly like a pot bundle, and looks much better than stacking pots imo :)

the number in the UseIterm(#) is just the shapes number in the itemDB

very nice think i will copy your method if you dont mind scripting is easier for me than attempting to change code XD

Bundles always felt unnecessary tbh but I would understand the nostalgia side of using them

not at all, and yeah thats how i started, alot of what i did was through scripting untill i got my head round a few bits, i could probably code the bundles now, but this works and if it isnt broken...

Personal preference, Bundles are better aesthetically but stacks are more practical.

Weight is the balancing act for me for inventory management.

Voted for bundles as adds an extra element of gameplay rather than being able to carry endless pots and RT's

Stacks doesn't mean unlimited potions unless you make them infinite which is stupid.

Is about how many Sun Potions you can carry on you which gives an huge advantage on both PvE and PvP.

If im not wrong, i believe that 1 Sun Potion is like 15-20 weight and doesnt stack (usually).

It doesn't matter, stacks or bundles as long as the server is tweaked to suit the playstyle with whatever you make. Need more server playtesting if going with bundles.

Bundles only for a low rate, stacks with various limits for rates above that. I liked the idea on OSkool HR server where you get bundles in drops and they break into a stack and those are pots that you can't buy in shops.
