Bucket "in use" status cleared please?

[SumBum]

Can I get a bucket cleared so it can be used, please? I will PM whatever details are needed.

Same problem. I have bucket that was used on ship to clarify honey. Ship was stolen, bucket is still in use. Not only honey and water is lost, even when i have bucket where this should stay, but also bucket is not usable anymore.

Both of you (if both still have the issue), PM me the full character names, or the full location name of where the buckets are.

[SumBum]

Thanks, Echoman. I was able to figure out where the bucket was last used and clear out the project so it's currently not a problem for me.

I think I have found a Quick Fix to this!

If you repair the object, for even One hour, it looses it's "In Use" Status! Woop!

[Doug R.]

That might leave unintended consequences behind the scenes though.

[EchoMan]

There is one occasion now which confirms that the (in use) state did not disappear when repaired.

[Shoomph]

Weird. So it only works in Certain cases?

[EchoMan]

I still haven't seen it work once. Three confirmed cases of it not working by now.

[Shoomph]

O dear. I'm so Embarrassed.

I thought if the tool was still in your Inventory, it would still show "In use".
But I dropped the tool and yes, it still says In Use. It just doesn't say it if the tool is in my inventory.

I'm so sorry!
Damn.

Can I get a Drop Spindle cleared?

PM me the location name or your character name if you are in the same location.
