Hot Key Functionality

[zifadel 48]

My suggestion is this: interaction between items on your hot key bar.

 

Example:

 

Currently, to reload a your Mosin, you would need to go into your inventory and manually load from the inventory screen. This is cumbersome, and while realistic, removes you from the immersion of the game world.

 

What if instead of requiring you to go into your inventory, the hot keys can interact with each other. For example, if I put my .762 ammunition pile on hot-key 2, and my Mosin on hot-key 1. If I hit 2 on my keyboard, it will allow me to click 1 on my keyboard to load the Mosin.

 

This would still require an action by the player to reload the gun to maintain realism, without requiring them to lose their field of vision while opening their inventory.

 

Could similarly work with the M4. Click 3 for bullets, then click 2 to load them into my ciip, then click 2 then 1 to load into my M4.
