Version: .32? Whichever version just came out with the Day/Night cycle.

Description: Okay, so this is a little complex, but basically you can take anything out of a merchants (any kind of merchant, though I havent tested this on Traders with their stacks of items) inventory without paying for it, if at first you fill his inventory up. Before this version if you filled up their inventory with things you've sold, and you had one of their shop items on your cursor, then clicked anywhere in their inventory where it wouldn't pick something else up, the item would just disappear, that is no longer the case and enables this bug to happen. You can even do this with items you cant afford.

1. Have enough stuff in your inventory to sell to a merchant and fill up his inventory.
2. Pick and item you want to steal and shuffle stuff in his inventory around to where there is absolutely no space for the item to pop back into.
3. Once you've done that the item will be stuck to your cursor, now close both the shop window and your inventory.
4. The item will now be stuck to the screen and the game will seem frozen, all you can do is move the camera.
5. Open back up your inventory and the item that was stuck to the screen will snap back to your cursor, and you can place it into your inventory free of charge.

Edit: I feel like one time I did this, it may have actually duplicated the item, so I received one and it was still in the merchant inventory. This is unconfirmed though.

Consistency: Happens every time I try it.

Severity: Kind of game breaking if you can get everything for free, haha. It's never made me crash or anything.
