IMO inventory system shouldn't be +rows/+columns and instead work similarly to i.e tarkovs, where each new inventory expansion instead creates a different box of its own. So a bark backpack might grant you an extra 3x3, a leather one a 4x4, merchant robes might grant you two small 2x2's, etc.

Obviously all part of the same "inventory" ui to prevent a floating mess of windows.

Though if this is done, rotating items in inventory will be a mandatory addition

Just need the Salem style inventory. Everything has some bulk value, so you're somewhat limited in how much you can carry, but there isn't a fixed limit on the number of different items/stacks you can carry. It's been asked for before, even before Salem.

Just need to be aware of that "trap" of allowing an inventory that is so large it lags up the client, even possibly the server communications. (Ways around that by caching locally, etc)

I hated Salem's inventory. It was annoying, confusing, un-intuitive, boring, and made backpacks feel unrewarding.

It looks more like a bedside cabinet, for me... :roll:

IMHO that'd be the best way, it creates quite a reasonable gameplay of space (?) management.

If I remember correctly jorb has stated somewhere that he does not really resist the idea of some even larger backpack.

give me a fuckin farmer backpack that limits movement to walk and I cant ride a horse on but gives an extra 5-5 space so I can finally farm in peace

call it the Agriculturalists' Bulk Crop Depositing Equipment

Haven cupboards can only fit 32 arrows, or 64 clovers, or 64 nettles, or 64 apples, or 64 dandelions. That military backpack could contain all that combined several times over.

Isn't arrow a 1-slot item as well?
Anyways, I disagree with the word "only". It can fit much larger items. 32 quivers of a size that allows to fit 30 arrows in each (and that's almost a thousand arrows), or 16 shields, or 64 axes, or 64 pairs of clogs.

Maybe slots and items could be divided into smaller parts? So that a dandelion and an axe are not of the same size. 2x2 slots for each current slot, for example/ A dandelion would be 1x1, while an axe could be 1x3 or 1x4, or 2x3.

I think a mountaineering backpack would be cool. Expanded inventory, but at the cost of L9 + R7 , maybe even L7 or hands.
