Armour and certain items such as maps not dropping upon death

ok so let me get to the point
This bug has been found by myself and my friend and its annoying

everytime we die certain items like armour and maps dont drop upon death and its frustrating because its a complete waste of resources everytime one of us dies and it has to be remade so to replicate this bug there needs to be 2 players in  the world or more and one member has to die then the armour and or map wont drop please fix this its taking away the fun from the game at times much appreciated
