So I think it should do the same on trades. You should bea ble to trade one stack of items that can overflow the recipient's Inventory, but only do it once, and only with 1 stack. Let's say recipient is holding Bronze Bars. You brought him some more, but he doesn't Quite have enough room. You dump your bars on him and he gets overburdened he can't move. Trying to trade with him again gives you the "Too Full" message and he has to sort his stuff around.
Oh, and trading with someone who has an empty disk out and ready, the items do NOT automatically go in the disk if you would overflow. You have to move them bit by bit, trade a little to him, he moves them to disk, repeat again and again and again.
It just makes building a pain in the butt. I don't get how you would exploit it, as you'd be rooted from being overburdened (just like you are if you have a bunch of copper and tin ore in your disk and you craft bronze bars that go in your inventory), so you can't really take them anywhere, you're stuck with them, and if you can only do it once (further attempts result in the "full" error), I fail to see how this could be exploited.
This would really help when you have two people trying to help each other build building materials, as they are large, bulky, and take a Lot of resources to make. The current system makes this a real pain to do, becuase A). you can't tell how much bulk they have left, B). the system is kinda dumb, like I said above, if you have 100 bulk left, you give someone 100 bulk so they can give you 200 bulk, it still errors out for some dumb reason, and there's no option to put what they are giving you straight to your disk if you have one present.
