Remember inventor filter settings on death

Rational: I keep certain items locked to the bottom of my inventory using filters (see picture below). Unfortunately when I die (because I got run over by a train for the twentieth time ;)), the filter setting in my inventory is lost.

Suggestion: Please remember the inventory filter settings on death.

Additional Info:
  • Note that the filters on the player hotbar are remembered on death.
  • When I drop all my armor into a chest, the filters are obviously no longer visible, since the armor provided the extra space. If I reequip the armor however the filters come back. So the inventar filters are already remembered during armor reequipment.

Sounds more like a bug than a suggestion.

I believe bug also The filters ARE transfered, just the inventory size isn't see below

Player Respawn doesn't respawn with the same settings

Code: Select all

data.raw.player.player.inventory_size = 90
after dying and respawning the player only has inventory_size of 60

@rseding related possible bugs I noticed
LuaPlayer::create_character -- transfers quickbar filters but not main inventory filters

that can't be right, I've always died and respawned with a full size inventory. is this a recent change?

If you lose power armor on death, I imagine it would change.

This is correct. my earlier post was wrong about the bug though because I totally forget I had power armor on.

Inventory filters do transfer, However why you respwan without the armor those slots are not there so there is nothing to set the filter too.

Storing the filters in the power armor itself would be awesome but the code is currently not set up to handle it that way.

In fact having anything that "extends inventory size" actually contain the inventory (items and filters) and when opening the player inventory all those inventories are combined into one would be even one step better!

So a workaround would be to have the filtered inventory slots at the top - the ones you don't lose when power armor is lost.
