XEEN: Some objects yield nothing on looting

[darkstar]

In Vertigo's tavern, in the Yak temple, and in some other locations I noticed that searching some beds (maybe also other objects) shows the "the party found" dialog, but there's no loot on it: 0 gold, 0 gems, and no item/armor/weapon popping up.

Does it happen consistently with a particular bed or object? I tried myself on various beds in a new game, but couldn't replicate the problem. If you can replicate it, a savegame from just before searching would be helpful.

try the attached savegame. There are a few beds in that room, and while it's not consistent (sometimes all of them work and give either loot or the "there is nothing ..." message), I can reliably trigger the behavior with a few tries. I attached a screenshot too

oh and in case it matters, I'm always searching with character #4 (Zippo)

Update: In Lakeview, there's a similar bug (or maybe it's the same?) where the message is "$CHAR found:" and then nothing. See screen04.png. Attaching savegame (savegame 002). Just enter Lakeview, and enter the house immerdiately to the left.
