Originally posted by kingtommy Actually, you BENEFIT from using a preset. To be nice, Mu built it so that when swapping presets you wouldn't lose more than 1 bootleg DVD at a time. So if you plop them in one-by-one, you could lose any number of DVDs. If you use a preset, you'd lose 1 or 0. No more.

So i been using my preset... and i had two dvds taken...

Okay so there are three spaces... the big one is where the leprechan was... and the small is where the survival was...  the other space was empty cause i  sold something and i can't remember what 

 

also...  Leperchaun in the hood was protected... i didn't think that protected dvds could be taken...

I aint bitching moaning or nothing sorry mu... just worried that something might not be working right... sorry if i have messed up and missed something

 Edit: someone stated that protected dvds can be taken but not put in the bin... sorry...

The Warden busted you popping in a bootleg DVD! He confiscated it and threw you in isolation for 4 minutes!

The Warden busted you popping in a bootleg DVD! He confiscated Prince of Persia and threw it into his bootleg bin. You've been sent to isolation for 22 minutes!

There's 2 things here we should have clarified:

  1. Leprechaun DVDs have their own confiscation mechanism DIFFERENT than most DVDs. Notice it has a higher rate of confiscation and it gives or takes cash -- so technically, it's not a normal bootleg, which sort of exempts it from the "2 confiscated" rule. We'll look into if it makes sense to change this.
  2. Protected DVDs CAN be confiscated, but they DON'T go into the bin. This means they can't be stolen because they can't be raided and they can't be bought out the bin. Basically, they're yours until you sell them to someone else.

turn on my computer and loaded my preset crime cell and again one of my dvd's were taken and i did not touch any dvd's (so basically if i dont clear my cell when logged off, people can raid my cell, but if i clear my cell and logg off then load my cell when i logg back on, i lose dvd's...something is serious wrong with this game) and im losing my money i paid for shit in the first place.......

The only thing wrong is that you're not taking the time to properly read.

Glad I didn't waste a lot of time chasing down a phantom bug. You really need to read man.

Yes, you're getting ripped off. Doing so was on my agenda this week.

So DVDs are getting removed without you touching them?

Apparently you're touch every single one of them. Cell presets are there just to remove the tedium of remove/adding every single item manually.

But don't be confused. Swapping cell presets is the same as removing and adding items one by one. It's just much faster, and requires one click instead of one hundred.
