[SA] Opening Boxes From Inventory Menu

[Statik (DayZ) 2695]

As of late, I have been finding it quite difficult to use the contents of things like med packs. This is because I have to drop it, wait for it to show up, etc etc.

 

I would be much nicer, and user friendly if it was possible to access the contents of these boxes without having to drop them on the ground.

 

Thoughts?

 

Another *great* option, suggested by Zarni would be to have to have the object in your hands to open it.

Or you have to put them in your hands in order to open them. That'd be better methinks, instead of magically opening a zipped up box inside your backpack.

Wait. You guys don't already move things to your hands to open them? I thought that's how it works?

I believe you have to drop it on the ground to open it... Unless.. does it work in your hands?

Yeah, I always just move the box to my hands and it shows everything in it. I believe you can use the items from that screen too. Pretty sure I did that with a bandage, but not positive. But yes, to just access the contents of the med box, move to your hands in the normal inventory screen. Works like a charm.

Shame on you for not trying it out before making a new topic...

I tried sticking beans into protector box via drag overtop and crashed twice in a row last night, for the first two times.
