Problem With Picking up Backpacks on Sloped/Wilderness Surfaces?

Recommended Posts

Short story: Shot a bandit, went through his stuff, found backpack, somehow equipped backpack, my Alice falls on ground, put new backpack down..

and no option presents itself to pick up the Alice. It was there on the ground, but the game didn't recognize that. Then, I couldn't pick up the other backpack...

now I have no backpack.

Yeah, it looks like a lot of stuff just bugs out on any sloped terrain, which is why I always drop stuff on the flattest ground around and drop something worthless like a food can first, then add stuff to that pile as it doesn't seem to bug out equipment if you're just adding it to an existing pile.

Things also appear to bug out if they are dropped or spawn close to/partially inside a wall, which is why so many backpacks bug out when they spawn in deer blinds.
