Does it still exist on AQ? I don't see it. I see it in the glossary but...

..signed maybe I'm just old and can't find it?

I made a bonus box recently, and a little present icon shows up next to it.

When you edit a box you give it a parent box. That is now what makes it a bonus box.

I don't see the bonus box icon listed under attributes. Didn't there used to be one to choose? Or am I remembering that wrong?

Yeah, I know that. I have one bonus that I listed quite a while back.

What I mean is......didn't you used to list a bonus box by just adding a traditional box and then going to attributes and choosing the bonus box attribute.....the little gift box?

Maybe I'm just remembering this wrong?

I don’t recall if that was the case (just choosing the icon in attributes) but now, you go to restrictions, and then dependency - and give it a parent box.

That is how it used to be.

This is how it is done now. Then it doesn't even show up until after the boxer has logged the parent box. It is even possible to do a string (series) of boxes done like this. However, then if one of them goes missing you won't be able to find the following ones.

OHHHHHH.....

Thought I was losing it when I was looking for the bonus box attribute and not seeing it. I have only listed one bonus and that was a long time ago.

So if I put a parent box # in that space I see on the restrictions page it will automatically make the one I am listing a bonus?

okie dokie then....thx

My sentiments exactly, seems to be a ritual as of late. Whenever GT introduces new stuff in the system I ignore it because I can't remember what it is that I'm looking for once I start looking. So I just get (pleasantly?) surprised when I eventually stumble upon it.
