why can't i seal any barrels?

[Deepwoken]

Exactly what the title says. I can't close barrels even when i have the correct ratio's of stuff.
the friend i am playing with can, but for some reason i cant.
i've tried replacing the barrel, putting the logs in first, putting water in first, reopening the menu, reloading the game, etc

clip of me spam clicking seal with the correct amount of oak/water:

does anybody know what the hell is going on? It's really annoying and i legit don't see a reason as to why it shouldn't work.

Welcome to the forums! Are you using any mods? Sometimes mods can interfere with standard gameplay processes, either by causing code to function improperly or by making changes to the processes that you may not have been aware of(like adding extra steps to make it harder). If running mods, try disabling them and testing the vanilla game on a fresh world to make sure everything functions properly, and then add mods back one by one, testing as you go, to figure out which is causing the problem. You could also double-check mod descriptions to make sure they aren't making vanilla processes more complex.

I would also check your game version. If you are playing a release candidate, those are unstable and usually contain several bugs. If you aren't playing a stable version of the game, it's likely you've encountered one of those bugs, in which case you'll want to head to the bugtracker on github to report it: https://github.com/anegostudios/VintageStory-Issues/issues

Thank you! Glad to be here!
Tried it out and didn't really seem to make a difference though. We did end up figuring it out eventually though! Turned out to actually have to do with the hosting service we were using for some reason.. if the server was up for too long it would just brick any barrel interaction for lord knows what reason. Weirdest bug i've seen happen yet pff-

Weird. Did you try rebooting the server? I think there've been some odd issues on the server my friend runs, but a reboot usually straightens things out.

yeah, a restart fixed the issue so there wasn't anything to worry about really lol. Support people weren't any help as to why it happens. But it is what it is
