I’ve come across a potential bug or unexpected behavior of .consumableList.

For example, we have the following lists:

animal
  pig
  cow
  chicken
  zebra
  crayfish
  jellyfish
  worm

output
  [x = animal.selectMany(5).consumableList, x.joinItems(", ")]

For example, x is a consumable list with 5 items like so: cow, cow, pig, chicken, zebra. The output will then output cow, cow, pig, chicken, zebra.

Then, to select the items from the consumable list, we can use x.selectOne. Outputting it:

output2
  [x.selectOne] [x.selectOne] [x.selectOne] [x.selectOne] [x.selectOne]

The expected output should be any combinations of ‘cow, cow, pig, chicken, and zebra’ e.g. cow pig cow zebra chicken.

However, it throws an error Looks like your consumableList ran out of items. This is the list in question: cow, cow, pig, chicken, zebra, and outputs an undefined.

I believe it is because consumable list takes ‘unique’ items. In which, the items in the list have only ‘4’ unique items (cow, chicken, pig, zebra), but it has 5 items (cow, cow, chicken, pig, zebra).

I think the correct behavior of a ‘consumable list’ is to be able to deduct an item from a list and prevent it from being selected again (consuming it), instead of creating a ‘unique list’.

Here is an example generator with the said problem.
