Thanks for the response! The items should move off they are not doing fast enough, the arrows will only show up if you are near enough to one when you hit the action button.
The drink one works by simply mashing the button as fast as possible, is nothing happening when you hit the button ( does it seem like your presses are not registering? )
I haven't seen anything stretch like that unexpectedly so I'm not sure what that could be. Does it happen every time for you, or do you have to do something specific to replicate it?
