I got just rolled over by a Train and my Inventory space is back to base level size, if I invest one more point into the skill it increases by 10 slots (my setting) but nothing more.
I'm getting a similar problem, except I noticed it with reach distance. My reach distance resets after death and I can't seem to be able to do anything to get it back.
This is still happening for me, if I change armor, vanilla or otherwise, or die, I lose my inventory bonus, and I imagine the reach bonus as well (I have far reach, so I can't check in my current game)
happened to me just now when I died by train twice in quick succession, rather than the 8 previous roadkills. All bonuses are lost, and do not restore when some other bonus is purchased.
Happened again to me. It'd be great if we could reset the skills for one person (rebuying restores just fine) without having to reset everyone on the server.
