Lock toolbelt items

Post by Req »

Suggestion to lock / reserve a toolbelt slot for a certain item. For example slot 1 (upper left) is always red belt. of course you as a player should be able to lock as you want. As for now the items hop around and can even be put in items and not the belt if you deselect it.

You can middle click an empty slot in your toolbelt to set a filter on it, or middle click a slot with an item to set it to only take that item.

And Ctrl+middle click to unlock!
Very frustrating in the first time.

I'm always amazed when games use the term middle click to do something.

A scroll wheel on a mouse isn't really for clicking on things.... ;)

You can still get mice with a dedicated middle button if you don't like clicking a scroll wheel. The Logitech MX-700 has a button just south of the wheel for this purpose.
