Inventory and Hotbar
Last checked · Checked against the development build
How many items can you carry in Stillskin Forest?
Eight different items. Identical snacks stack in one slot, ammunition is held as a reserve on your guns, and headlamp parts are fitted on pickup so they never take a slot. If your bag is full, a new item stays on the ground with a 'Your bag is full' message.
The hotbar
Number keys select a slot (LB/RB cycle on a controller). The selected item lifts with a 3D preview; guns show magazine and reserve, and the coloured strip shows durability, turning red below 25%.
The backpack
Press B or Tab to open the backpack: item cards with rarity, descriptions, stats and ammo, plus equip, use and drop buttons and the settings. It frees the mouse and blurs the background. On a controller, the D-pad navigates it.
Dropping and sharing
Press G to drop the held item. Dropped items keep their wear. To hand something to a teammate directly, hold E on them; see Co-op survival.
Up to two guns or melee weapons from your bag are shown holstered across your back.
