Thanks.

Works in 2.04, so Steve's fix (4150) or my fix (4494) caused the problem.

Tried SVN.

I can't frob the bottles OR the purse, even when leaning in. This is worse than 2.05.

If I noclip up to the items, I'm able to frob all of them.

Purses in 2.04 didn't have a frobbox_size. The Creeps purse is frobable.

The 2.05 fix to 0004150 gave them a frobbox_size of 10. The purse is NOT frobable.

Changing the frobbox_size from 10 to 1 in 2.05 makes the purse frobable again. Any higher frobbox_size makes the purse not frobable.

However, even with this change, neither the purse nor the bottles are frobable in SVN.

Since the only place this can be fixed is in SVN, I have to focus on that.

The frob blocker "bureau_frob_blocker11", which the purse and bottles sit on, is meant to keep the player from frobbing items in the upper left drawer.

Since the drawer has a frob controller in it, the frob blocker is unnecessary. Unfortunately, all the prefab desks are built this way.

blocker11, unlike the other frob blockers sitting on the desk surface, has a frobbox_size of 12. In SVN, it looks like this is what's keeping the purse and bottles from being frobable in SVN. When I remove the frobbox_size spawnarg, the items are all frobable.

So the trick will be to figure out why SVN cares more about the frobbox_size setting on the blocker than it has before.

Summary:

2.04 works.
2.05 fails (can frob bottles but not the purse).
SVN fails (can't frob bottles or purse).

2.05 is fixed by reverting the general "frobbox_size 10" change made on purses.

SVN still fails after reverting the 2.05 change. It appears that changes made to idClip::Translation() are causing the problem.

I had to revert code I had committed to fix 0004494.

The true fix for 0004494 was to revert the frobbox_size changes made for 0004150.
I wasn't aware of 0004150 when I worked on 0004494.

By reverting both 0004150 and 0004494 fixes, the problems in The Creeps and Accountant 2 go away.
