Hatchet= You don't have enough room to store this item

[Ingway 4]

So i just started to play with the 1.7.1.2 patch active and what do i find? A hatchet right in front of the barn i was in, i try to pick it up... what's that? Not enough room for it? But dosn't it occupy the tool slot?

Well they probably changed that now, since it's also a melee weapon... let's get rid of some of this shit... alright now i can... still nothing? But i have like 6 slots avaliable... it can't be that heavy can it?

So yeah, to the point, i can't pick up the hatchet, and the one i had on me vanished from the tool slot, and yes, the server was updated to the 1.7.1.2 version, is anyone else having this problem?

I had one on me before I patched. It disappeared. Yet to find another. Maybe it takes the primary weapon slot?

I was empyting the primary weapon slots... not the secondary, and i had lots of space on the bag, an alice pack, couldn't get it...

Same problem.. I also had a hatchet on me.. New object, remove old one. Tried up to six of the primary slots empty, then tried 5 backpack slots empty... No luck..... Didn't try dropping my pistol, as I really like my g17 and didn't want the building to eat it. Figured 5 pack slots is enough to take a pistol so.... Would be nice if we could still keep that small hatchet for campfires and no attacking though... I'd hate to have to decide between a hatchet and a pistol...or worse yet, a primary weapon and a hatchet...

Melee's fun, but survival depends on being able to start a fire to cook food!!!!!

so i'm not the only, saw somone on dallas 22 complain about it... i guess that's because my chracter isn't "fresh", because i saw some people comment on how they can use... i'm wondering if i change my toon to a new one will fix this.

You need to choose between your primary AND the hatchet.

I just droped my CZ to see if it would work, and worked.

And, i dont know if you noticed some shotgun shells named Hatched and crowbars..

They will be needed after some time using the hatched/crossbar.

It's like something to repair after some time of usage.

And i think you can brake some small buildings too. I just destroyed one

I will drop the hatchet and come back to my cz, but you will need to decide between your primary and the hatchet.

Not an easy decison huh ?!

PS: in the image, i just killed a zombie with it. It's pretty simple btw
