This is not a complaint about the online memory leaks/lags. I’ve already submitted a bug report, but I’m tired of dealing with this. Every time I start a new Legacy Offline character, some of my stash tabs go completely to shit; now it’s the ones tagged with Weaver’s Will. It wouldn’t be so bad if we could actually search for items that aren’t where you think they’re supposed to be.
Has anyone taken a look at how the offline stashes are stored? The characters are stored in simple JSON files, are the stashes the same? It’s one of the easiest file formats to parse, so I’m at a loss as to why this problem continues to come up. Just last week, I had to re-apply tab changes I made to (4) different characters; makes absolutely no sense.
UPDATE: I thought I’d fixed the issue by creating a blank category and moving the Weaver’s Will tabs over. This worked great, until I restarted the game and all of my tabs were in the wrong locations. This is frankly just beyond stupid at this point.
Are you playing full offline or the “fake” offline one? I’m playing full offline and I haven’t had an issue with tabs yet this season.
Do you have remove only tabs from previous seasons? I know you’re playing offline, but you can still create seasonal characters and some people do for the fresh start. I don’t have any and haven’t had any issues, so that might be something worth looking into.
I haven’t checked the stash files (no reason to, really) but I assume they’re JSON files as well.
I assume whatever is happening with the stash isn’t an easy fix, which is why it’s taking so long.
It’s also possible that the changes they’re working on for the stash makes this a non-issue and they want to release everything together. Although, if that will take much longer (I expect it will be part of next season), might as well just release a fix for it soon, since it’s an issue for many players.
I’d like to see a proper post mortem dev blog about issues with stash tabs if they ever fix it, because it is silly. Issue, that causes game to freeze for sometimes over 20 seconds and prompts windows to ask if i want to terminate or wait for this process and that issue isn’t fixed for weeks now. We are getting close to one month on sunday…
