I was just hitting A fast to get my Cursed Cannonballs out of the Cannonball Barrel because someone was trying to sink us and we had many Anchorballs, disconnected from the game, and lost them all (how ironic).
Perhaps start saving peoples' Inventory please? Even if it only gives it back when you reconnect to the same server, that'd be fine. I joined the same server as I was with someone and still had a few left in the Cannonball Barrel thankfully.
This is the most disappointing error to ever exist. Almost got our Ship sunk to an error that is triggered by trying to save yourself in a panic. GG.
If I was playing solo you may as well say the Server itself sunk my Ship for trying to save myself. That just doesn't sound right.
