Steps to Reproduce

1. Play Bone Chill
2. Have bad ping/packet loss
3. Pick up Snowskulls
4. Throw them rapidly
5. Refill as needed
6. Pay attention to the Snowskull count in your inventory

Explanation

In Bone Chill, if playing on bad ping, your Snowskull count can become desynced between the client and server. When this happens, this makes it so that even when ping returns to normal, it becomes impossible to pick up more Snowskulls, despite it appearing that you're holding less than 12 Snowskulls. Additionally, this can make the Snowskulls sometimes fail to count down properly when they are thrown and remain at the same number they were at.
