Crafting via the recipe book can delete items if picking up items while crafting
The bug
If you pick up items while crafting, and then try to use these items in the crafting recipe, those items will disappear.
To reproduce
- Place a crafting table
- Fill your inventory with a random item that you won't use (for example, cobblestone), and leave seven slots free.
- Fill these seven slots with seven stacks of iron ingots
- Throw two stacks of iron ingots on the ground near the crafting table
- Switch into survival mode
- Shift-click onto the iron block recipe in the recipe book while interacting with the crafting table
- The crafting table now is ready to craft 49 iron ingots
- You pick up the remaining two stacks of iron ingots, and an additional 7 iron ingots were left in your inventory
- Shift-click onto the iron block recipe again
→
The two stacks of iron ingots will disappear and the crafting table now shows a non-functioning recipe

Created Issue:
Auto-crafting feature makes items disappear
This bug makes your items just disappear if you decide to craft using the auto-crafting feature when SHIFT-clicking AND you don't have enough space in your inventory to hold all the items needed to craft what you want.
I demonstrate how to replicate this bug in this video.

I was able to reproduce this in 20w45a. Also, this might be related to MC-147729?
This actually should be fixed in the newest snapshot (see MC-147729)!

Duplicate of MC-147729 which was fixed in 20w46a.
I'm able to reproduce this in 1.16.5, but in 21w05b the missing gold nuggets are thrown out onto the ground as items when you click the recipe in the recipe book. (That behavior still feels buggy, but at least your items aren't deleted.) I believe this is the same issue as MC-147729, which was fixed in 20w46a.
MC-147729 does seem very similar now that I read it closely. (That describes picking up items that you'll use, rather than ones you won't use, but the underlying cause could be the same.)
Apologies for the duplicate report. I didn't see that one because I only searched unresolved issues.



Confirmed. I've rewritten this ticket to include steps to reproduce, and attached a shorter video of me reproducing this bug.
This issue also affects 1.14.3pre2. I've attached the images from my duplicate issue (
MC-154078) as I think it's the simplest way to reproduce this bug.Affects 1.14.3pre3
To clarify on reproducing this bug:
I cannot find a way to reproduce this without creating an empty space in the inventory. If shift-clicking the recipe does not create an empty space, the items on the ground will simply top up any stacks you have, which then seems to correctly(?) prevent shift-clicking the recipe more. Also, the type of item used doesn't seem to matter.
Still in 1.14.4.
On a server the console also gets spammed with "ERROR Can't find any space for item in the inventory"
This issue is still present in 1.15-pre1.
What is even more surprising that it is still UNASSIGNED!
IMHO, item deletion is a serious bug and should be prioritized.
Confirmed in 1.16.1
In 1.16.2 Pre-3
Fix for this issue here: https://github.com/PaperMC/Paper/commit/01b1971a43f56da6418f3f623dc972f46dcff373
int j = this.c.firstPartial(itemstack); if (j == -1) { j = this.c.getFirstEmptySlotIndex(); } // Paper start if (j == -1) { this.c.player.drop(itemstack.cloneItemStack(), false); break; } // Paper end ItemStack itemstack1 = itemstack.cloneItemStack(); itemstack1.setCount(1); if (!this.c.c(j, itemstack1)) { AutoRecipe.LOGGER.error("Can't find any space for item in the inventory"); }Affects 1.16.4 Release Candidate 1
Isn't iron blocks instead of iron ingots in "The crafting table now is ready to craft 49 iron INGOTS"
It is still a little buggy because the iron ingots that will be in the inventory won't teleport to the crafting grid
