Custom text is not saved on a piece of paper in container

[Maris]

How to reproduce:

1. Join (any) dedicated server.

2. Get a Sheet of Paper. It doesn't matter if there already is some text.

3. Put Sheet of Paper in a bookcase OR put it on the ground. Not in your inventory.

4. Write some text using a pencil.

5. Go to another location (at least 300 tiles from this place I guess).

6. Go back.

7. Try read your text. It's disappeared! The Sheet of Paper is in the same state as it was on step 2.

 

P.S. I lost huge text that I wrote for my teammates.

This could be replaced with re-login on the server or restarting the game in single.

You have to write on the paper in your inventory, then drop. Otherwise the change won't hold.

Yup. But game probably should not allow to write if item is not in your inventory at all.

I was not able to replicate this in SP at all. How exactly did you achieve that?
