Inventory - Clunkiness

[RJIII]

Hope this is considered constructive criticism I am truly loving everything about this game - the inventory UI is not good, It feels like an unfinished part of the of the game. Trying to scroll through a list of unorganized items when the crap is on the line is frustrating at best. I get the idea of foraging through your bag for stuff in a pressure situation might be a part of the game but this unorganized list really doesn't convey this situation. This is the wish list area so below I will be annoying and say what I think:

Inventory

1. Should be split into clothing and usable goods

+Separate clothing system that makes the user aware of whats being worn, how much heat he/she is retaining, and condition of items

+Graphical interface of the main character wearing the clothes to visually represent warmth state

+Usable items in a separate window from clothing so they can be easily accessed without accidentally making yourself naked in front of a wolf.

The mechanics of this game so far are heavily based on accessing the inventory, consuming products, equipping objects, and being aware of ones physical state... It should not be a chore

Totally agree. The UI is very placeholder (as mentioned in the ReadMe). It'll improve a lot. Other than having a quick cosmetic layer, the core inventory functionality has been pretty static for months. It's definitely part of the next list of improvements.

Thanks for the feedback!

One thing to keep in mind is that we've offer the quick slots so players can enable things they might need in a hurry: 1 - Flare, 2 - Lantern, 3 - Weapon, 4 - Decoy (i.e. drop food to distract wildlife).

These are really the only things you need to do "in a hurry."

Things like starting fires or laying down a bedroll can be easily done from the Survival Panel.

Everything else should certainly not be a chore, but quick access is not typically paramount outside those cases.

Clothing is my big issue, get it out of my food,flare, and tool section... not just by a pull down which wastes actual survival time... make it a separate interface. I don't need to search through my existing "worn" clothing to find a candy bar.
