Epic fail haha. Thats why I droped my Mini Trash Can somewhere in world.

I ditched mine because I didn't want that to happen.
No big loss, was just like some cloths or at worse some bandanas i was going to sell. Would be a nice safeguard incase it turns into a bag full of resources you drop by accident.

[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]One simple reason why they dont work like that.
they are newbied.
meaning if u are close to dying you could then put items in your newbied trashcan run to pits take the item / items out asap.
The mini trashcan will never work like a regular trashcan for that reason.
We do not want newbied bags/containers.

Ah ok, that makes sense Odium. Now that you mention it I can almost remember that point coming up before.
Is there anyway it could be made to empty when you die? This way it can still be opened otherwise to recover accidental deletes?
if playermobile hits<=0
empty trashcan
Look at that, I'm pro!

[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]==0 would be more correct, but
!m.Alive (where m is playermobile) would be the even more correct
Altough should it poll for the playermobiles hits every 1 seconds then? :S dont make sense ;/
it could probably trigger if the mobile dies but not sure its good to have something extra trigger when a mobile die sounds like it could crash the server in so many ways - things like pacllamas dragging etc would have to be looked up and what if one person have multiple mini trashcans lots of erhm issues. (not even sure its doable in a easy and smooth way) as items dont regulary read never(?) check for the owners status.
or maybe it could be triggered in the playermobile script when the mobile dies it empty the mini trashcan but even here lots of issues could come up with multiple traschans or no trashcans. as it needs to empty all mini trashcans the player have equiped.
Something for malik or nasir or maybe evenshade to lookup, when time given.[/COLOR]

I'll pass.
As Odium said, it sounds a little touchy to add an OnDeath trigger to empty it as I would imagine there would not only be ways around it but doing things like holding it on your cursor while you die may cause issues.
I think the much easier fix is like 10gp mini trash cans that aren't newbied and can be opened. That way they have the timer like normal cans but couldn't be abused in any way and it wouldn't need checks.

Ooor people could just stop trashing items by accident
At least you can't trash newbied items.
