Forge "eats" gold

Software:Universal Client
Version Number:
________________________________________________________________________
Location
Blaze forge Giza
________________________________________________________________________
Description:
I noticed i wasn't getting paid working as blacksmith for the forge,
went to watch closely, wrote down stocks, invest and my cash.

Gold-ore Stock went down from 13 to 3,
invest did not chance,
i did not get pay,
there was no gold for sale where there previously had been,
no change otherwise,
'cos Blaze had not been on in between.

________________________________________________________________________
Steps to Replicate:
It happened earlier too,
but we were thinking someone bought the gold when no one was watching,
after i stayed to watch and write down invest and my cash (topright),
bug was affirmed.

Was blaze on at the time?
It's possible he was manually removing it

I witnessed that Blaze was not on and nobody was getting to the inventory or funds it produces.

not seeing this in test now (I just worked at Blaze's forge for 2 cycles and got paid fine) and other forges seem to be working as expected too.
Have had a brief browse through the code and don't see anything obvious that might cause that to happen.
If it happens again I need to be around to get a capture of the data that i can run through the debugger. Let me know soon as you can if you see it again...

Worked as blacksmith again for 20 minutes,
concerning the building, all went well.

I guess there was a gap between me running to get more gold and blaze setting to "not sell",
i must have missed that, i thought he'd gone before the change took effect.

I can provide more info from when i kinda stumbled across this. . .

I noticed when i got my first forge i wanted to do a test run to see what profitablity i could get here were my result.

1st test:
a. Invested 1s in the forge
b. bought 10 ore and stocked it and waited for the gold
result: 0ore 5 gold and 1s investment

2nd test:
A and B still the same i still had 1s left in invest ment next

3rd test:
A and b still the same. this cycle actually left me with 8d and 5 gold

So i dont know about the forge EATING gold, but i did learn to thing the forge produces gold at a random rate its went 15 mins without making gold once, and the same applies for wages, dont know if they truely follow the 10min rule but i have never paid a worker at the same time the forge makes gold.
