Stack slots on hotbar#1123

There should be a way to do something similar to the old hotbar with the new one : adding multiple items to the same slot, and then being able to switch between them by pressing the number again, or by scrolling within the slot.

This could be done by dragging an item onto a slot that already has an item, and holding it for more than 2 seconds. If you just drag it there, you’d replace the item, but by holding it for some time, you indicate that you want to stack these.
We could also imagine that by clicking on a stacked slot, it would unroll everything it has in it, and you could rearrange the order of the items within that slot.

Then what’s the point of hotbar? Just make it wider. It takes a full space in inventory, it should remain the same on hotbar. However, if the item was to be teleported after use(breach repair, for example), I would NOT be against it. As of the stack slots, downvote, sorry.

This gives us a way to bring back the old hotbar, because a lot of people - myself included - grew used to it. It’s not about being able to fit every item in it, it’s about being able to sort items of similar type, or that you use in similar ways or often at the same time. Think of it as a hotbar in a hotbar.

I’m really not sure what you mean when talking about “teleportation”…

Also, it would be an option, you wouldn’t have to use it if you don’t want to. And it’s weird for you to apologize for having a different opinion than mine.

Teleoprtation means that when you use a stack, a stack from inventory appears in the slot. For example, five module repair kits. You use them up, whatever stack of repair kits you have in inventory replaces it instantly.

Hot bar in hot bar… I am aware that it would let you put EVERYTHING there, however it allows you to put different items in it, and you might confuse them. Breach fix and hull repair.

Sorry was for downvote, not disagreement.

You can’t put breach replacements or module repair kits in the hotbar… As for refilling the hotbar slot… That’s how it works already, right ? When you use a medkit, you don’t have to go to your inventory and re-equip medkits to that slot…

I would like the hot bar to take the item as it is in many games if its on the hot bar it dont take bag space.

Then stack slots would really not work at all.
Honestly, it works in Minecraft, but I’m not so sure about Volcanoids. It doesn’t make as much sense. I think I like it the way it is, your hotbar isn’t “part” of your inventory, it’s only the way to interact with the items within it.
