Just logged back in, ran 50 meters across a log bridge and down through the gate to the storage area. The moment i get to the storage area actions freeze (only was logged in 30 seconds). Perhaps this is not just coincidence. I think the baskets are messing something up.
Yes, thanks DDT. The programmer who needs to work on this is with his family right now (in a small village without a net connection). He will be back in action in a few days and he'll work on this until it's resolved.
