Minimap indicators whenever your inventory changes?

[itsrachelfish]

Haven't dug too deep into this one but I'm curious why kore always displays minimap indicators when your inventory changes. Dropping items, adding items into storage, picking up items, changing your equips, etc. There might even be a few more cases where this happens but seriously, what?

Code: Select all

eq 44
You unequip +4 Yggdrasil Crown (55) - Helmet
You equip Mitra [1] (44) - Helmet (type 256)

I wouldn't put it past Gravity's developers to actually be sending these packets—they really like backwards code—but if anyone knows an actual reason for it I'd love to know.
