I've seen reports of this before, but unfortunately you have provided us no information whatsoever that we could use to reproduce the issue. A reliable test case is really important for this one; without that we can't make any headway.

I really have no idea. Along with the update I recently added a new optomized crafting system using DT's Tooltip library. I'll try and get you an exact instance of when this bug occurs and reply here if/when I do.

You need to stop posting duplicate issues on this. I've deleted the other two instead of marking them as duplicates because they have no value whatsoever. I thought the original was an honest mistake but the second one apparently wasn't.

Me? I haven't made any other bug report posts about this except for this one. >_>

If it's being duplicated by more than one person then it's a bug that should be addressed, whether or not the method to reproduce it is included.

If this were just a false claim or a minor glitch then I don't think it would have arisen more than once in the bug reports.

A bug that can't be reproduced usually can't be addressed. But I was specifically referring to the fact that there have been three such bug reports from F0lak.

Like I said, I only posted it once. Perhaps Chrome mucked something up?

Anyways, I'm still trying to find out what this all about. So far I've noticed that refcount 5 doesn't lag, but everything else that's come up has.

Lummox, is there anything you can tell me about the conditions under which this particular BUG message comes up that might be able to help me narrow down the possibilities of the exact cause?
