Presents

These presents that cannot be opened, which platform are you using? Mobile? – Ferretwings (talk) 21:03, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

Oops, sorry, I see that it is for mobile. We have reports that they no longer drop. Are they still obtainable? Also, the reports state that they actually break and disappear when placed. Do they do the same for you? – Ferretwings (talk) 21:05, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
The Extroardinary: yes I found this bug on IOS and they were invisible for me. And it was the current version. It seems they were pretty random when or when not dropping that type but it always dropped the same kind until I reloaded — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theextroardinary (talkcontribs) at 17:11, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
Do they appear to be same as Present (Furniture)? – Ferretwings (talk) 14:04, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
yeah but they are invisible. I can’t remember exactly what they acted like but I don’t remember being able to place either blocks or walls (can’t remember which). It confused me. I got these presents that “opened” rapidly and dropped nothing and was inconsistent when they “opened”. I checked the tooltip (I believe they were all blue and I THINK I got them more common then normal presents) and it said something like “tap to open (down) right click to place” “can be placed”. Then I finally got over it and started trying to build stuff. I was confused when it would not let me place blocks/walls (Again I cant remember i think it was walls though) in certain positions so I tried with both the joystick thing and by using my finger. I finally swung my hammer around (if you hold your finger in the very center of the joystick with a hammer it auto selects walls. It sometimes fixes on blocks too and slopes them when trying to destroy a wall.) and random particles (dirt) were coming out of air (along with destroying the walls that I had placed). So I swung my hammer all around and then kept building occasionally finding another one and having to break it. I finally realized it was the presents and was fascinated. I keep finding glitches that sometimes contradict this wiki. Like for example one time the wizard was selling music boxes and they didn’t dissapear and when I tried to record I remember it taking forever (I was in the mushroom biome). One of three things happened: it dissapeared, it turned into a random item, or it didn’t do anything and dissapeared when I reloaded. I know I got a bit off topic here but I wanted to share this and these memories are a blur but about 80% accurate. This also proves that these bugs could be looked into a bit more. (I was on IOS the presents were current ver. And the music boxes could have been anywhere from 1.2-latest but it was sometime after they removed them I’m sure.) – TheExtroardinary (talk) 16:49, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
You can use the Time cheat (by editing the system date and time) to retest this, if you're not sure. That's supposing IOS can change the time. Murrayzero (talk) 16:57, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
will do (later). This is not the same IOS device tho. And yes I can change date and time. Also one time Also on the latest version I got a random item from a present, which leads me to think it still happened but is EXTREMELEY rare. It was something silly like dirt or some weak tool but I forgot. It might be someone accidently put a random thing at an extreme rarity at the loot pool when fixing the glitch.

I did a tiny bit of testing with the date and time change and nothing was out of the ordinary. Except for a hilarious death. But I got normal presents. I will preceeed to do more in depth tests later. Theextroardinary (talk) 22:38, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
Ok I realized partially what happened. So I got the presents from present mimics. In the latest version. BUT! There is something that kept happening to me. Every few months I got a new update. It was the same update every time. And it was the latest one. For some reason it did not know I was already in that version. And this kept on. That may be the cause for the present mimics dropping them. And I got quite a few. That basically explain everything. I do not believe that present mimics drop any type of presents any more but I am not sure. Theextroardinary (talk) 17:22, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Are you the one who made this edit: https://terraria.gamepedia.com/index.php?title=1.3.0.8&curid=55702&diff=892042&oldid=839305? If so, may I ask where you got your information? – Ferretwings (talk) 21:38, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

ok so I don’t really know how discussions work but yeah it said it on another page... it just confused me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theextroardinary (talkcontribs) at 17:13, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
I checked the History section on the Zombies page, and there it was. Thank you. Good catch :) – Ferretwings (talk) 14:06, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
