I just replaced 6 boilers with 6 Uncommon boilers and now only have 1 boiler in my inventory instead of the 6 i was expecting. When i placed them i clicked the first one and dragged the mouse over the other 5 (this was done in person not by bots). the ones now placed are Uncommon quality as intended.

number 1 (as per attachment pic) was the one that was clicked the others were dragged over to replace the boiler.

when i tried reproducing the bug it did not happen again and I have 6 boilers in my inventory as expected.

They are not gone as they are on the ground. Issue here would be that they should not be dropped on the ground if you have inventory space.

-- edit:

I will move this to Not a bug because there is absolute lack of details about state of inventory when this issue happened, no details if there was any notification in the chat about inventory being full making it quite likely to be caused by full inventory and the only boiler that was given back to you was most likely due to uncommon boilers in your hand depleting causing a hand in inventory to dissapear releasing a single inventory stack making it possible to be given back when you build last uncommon boiler.
