Bug Report: Trade Window Exploit to Bypass Contraband Detection #1592

Description

@51812180-gif

Issue Description:
When players initiate a trade, a container/trade window pops up. If contraband items are placed into this trade container but neither party confirms the trade, the system fails to detect these items via script monitoring. Players can then enter specific mission zones while the trade window remains open. When the player cancels/closes the trade window, the items return to their inventory. This method allows players to bypass contraband detection systems.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Initiate a trade with another player
  2. Place contraband/forbidden items into the trade container
  3. Do NOT confirm the trade (leave it pending)
  4. Enter a designated mission zone/area
  5. Cancel/close the trade window
  6. Observe that contraband items return to player's inventory without being detected

Expected Behavior:
The system should detect and prevent contraband items from being carried into restricted areas, regardless of whether they are temporarily stored in a trade window.

Actual Behavior:
Contraband items can be hidden in an unconfirmed trade window, allowing players to bypass detection when entering restricted zones.

Severity: High - This exploit allows players to circumvent security measures designed to prevent contraband trafficking.
