Type of bug: I think it'd be lua, correct me if im wrong

Description of the bug: When you drive or move drugs for a long distance the contents of it will float in the air for all players that were in the area already to see.

How to reproduce the bug:
  1. Plant drugs
  2. Transport them a long distance (preferably big leaves so they are easy to see)
  3. Congratulations

Time stamp(s): Any time you move drugs.

*Errors: N/A

This could be because the Contents of planters are separate props to the box itself. The water tank thing could be fixed by having planter attachments as a "Bodygroup" on the planter instead of as separate props but this would make it so you couldn't see how much water is left in your tank. Overall I don't know if this is entirely fixable.

The issue is close to what Benji said above. The attachments are all clientside models, which relies on the entity data being transferred to the client. However when entities move further away a lot of the data transfers stop for efficiency reasons. This is why this can also happen with area portals around doors.

I've looked into this before, and I don't know how fixable it is.
