    Chocobo race coffer's not always working.

    I have heard multiple people report this and I've not only seen it happen to me but to others as well. I actually ran through a coffer directly behind a person and I got the first item the coffer was supposed to give instead of them. This is DEFINITELY a bug and should be looked into. Someone else posted this before and it was moved to "not enough information" without any reasoning. Every bit of information you need to know is in the fact people are moving through the coffers and they are only sometimes giving the item. This happens regardless of if you were the first person to hit it or the last person to hit it or if you ran directly through it without turning or turned into it. It also happens regardless of if you are sprinting or not and if you have any abilities or debuffs active or not. There is no single way to say any one thing is triggering it except that the code that determines if you hit it or not is faulty. This needs to be looked at and fixed not just filed away as if you don't have enough information. You have all the information anyone without developer access can possibly give you. Now please get this fixed.

    Your precious template that gives you nothing more than what I just posted:
    Time: Anytime
    Frequency: anything from never in a race to every single coffer
    World name: Leviathan (as if that matters it's happening on ALL worlds)
    Character name: It's over there on the side but if you can't look then it's Myriad Kuronami
    NPC name: N/A
    Monster name: N/A
    Class/Level: BLM/50 but that has nothing to do with Choco racing
    Party or solo: doesn't matter
    In-game time: doesn't matter
    Area and coordinates: Chocobo racing... yeah
    Steps:
    1. Start race....
    2. Sprint to coffer...
    3. Go through coffer...
    4. Get no item....
    5. Rage...
    6. Fill out bug report

    I've had this happen to me quite a few times. The prime example I have is being behind a group of NPCs. that got an item (I know I was directly behind him because sprinting wouldn't let me go through him) and I got no item at all. I know the NPC got the item because he immediately used it.

    I've also had this happen numerous times. I know a lot of people are noting that if you're switching lanes, it won't allow you to pull from the coffer but I've actually had instances where I've gone through it, had the animation and sound effect play, and not gotten the item.

    That said, this is a hiccup in the chocobo racing experience and I'm excited to see it fix because racing is off to a phenomenal start.
