Patch notes for Test Center are being kept track of here: https://forums.legendsofultima.online/d/28-test-center-patch-notes

• Fixed stackables not stacking when dropping objects onto containers directly
  - Added prevention for dropping objects to healthbars, this is not intended
  - Added prevention for mounting pets you cannot control over 30 difficulty

We'll try to be more careful about things like this in the future. grimacing
