I’m back again with ‘bag of holding’ and ‘affinity’ problems. I’ve been fighting this for days. For testing purposes, I have some small items that I try to put into either a pack I’m wearing or in pockets in my shirt or shorts. The items will go into the pack with no problems but I’m told that they will not go into any pockets. This is driving me crazy. I’ve tried adjusting bulks and affinities but none of that helps. I’ve included the source if anyone would care to look at it
