Issue description
I had a particular short sword deleted from my inventory when transitioning from level 3->2 after returning the troll idol (when the first Akbaa cutscene plays). If the short sword is placed in Level 2 prior to returning the troll idol, it will STILL be deleted when transitioning from Level 3->2, but only after I've returned the troll idol.

Played on 1.2-dev-2019-07-22
Steps to reproduce this issue
Only happens with a particular short sword that I believe I found in the Goblin City, currently had 35/50 condition (sorry, I don't know which one it was). Can provide a save file for replication -- it's the sword I currently had equipped.

Can you please attach the save file? Which versions of Arx Fatalis did you use in this playthrough (not just when the sword disappeared but before too)?

A file was uploaded. Save file for replicationicon_open_new.png This comment was attached:

Save file from right before the bug occurs. If you take the troll idol to Pog and then transition from level 3->2, you can make the currently equipped short sword disappear from the inventory. If you transition otherwise, the short sword remains in the inventory. Curiously, if you drop the sword in level 2, go back to level 3 and give the troll idol to Pog, and then come back to level 2, the sword will also be deleted.

Sorry, forgot to include the version number in some of my bug reports. I played on 1.2-dev-2019-07-22 for the whole playthrough. I've also attached a save file.

So the sword (short_sword_0010) is actually from the human outpost on level 1 (area 12). It's scripted to destroy itself whenever you go to a new area after advancing the troll quest: 
  1. ON RELOAD {
  2.   IF (#TROLL_QUEST >= 2) DESTROY ME
  3.  ACCEPT
  4. }
 I don't see why this sword would have anything to do with the troll quest though.

I guess this area gets cleaned up after the trolls restore access to it from the Human kingdom, but the sword disappearing if the player has picked it up is still a bug.
