FicusWatkinsiana Posted October 27, 2024 Report Posted October 27, 2024 So I have my inventory button bound to TAB because I'm used to it there from other games, however I've noticed that once I have my inventory open, once pressed again, the TAB button wont close the inventory and instead takes on a function more similar to when you use TAB on a website or text application and will jump around outlining inventorys and items (I've added a screencap to help illustrate). I've had a look through settings and can't seem to find a work around, maybe I've missed something but if not would there be a future possibility to edit the default TAB key bind? 2
M1zrakh Posted October 27, 2024 Report Posted October 27, 2024 Very well I understand you. I myself encountered this problem and even contacted support (who knows, maybe they will help). But unfortunately I received the answer that currently it is not possible to to use the Tab key for that. The Tab key is dedicated to changing between UI elements in the game. I even tried to find a solution in some game configs, but so far without success. I really hope that such an opportunity will be provided to us in the future 1
Krougal Posted October 27, 2024 Report Posted October 27, 2024 Yeah, I've taken to using the tab key for inventory in many games too.
Thorfinn Posted October 27, 2024 Report Posted October 27, 2024 Well, this is a first, at least for me. Welcome to the forums, @FicusWatkinsiana and @M1zrakh Ultimately, you will probably be able to use TAB to close it as well, instead of having to use ESC. The plan is to get rid of the crafting grid and move everything to immersive mode. Not sure how that's going to work, but looking forward to it. Upshot is the way inventory is done is a temporary measure, and TAB is too standard in the various libraries as a means of navigating fields. Once they write whatever is is they have in mind, there will be no need of fields. My only concern is that immersive might become quite boring. Imagine having to lay down seven sticks on the ground in the right pattern to make a ladder. Several hundred times. I hope you can at least set down stacks of sticks and pick up stacks of ladders. 3

Thank you very much for your reply. This information is inspiring and I will be looking forward to it. In the meantime, I have already gotten used to the E key and am playing the game with great pleasure. I am very glad that I recently discovered such a wonderful project with such a nice community on the official server 2
