consolidate all command
after watching the liquid zedball video i realized that there is something missing that would be super useful, basically a command where your character takes a stack of items and consolidates their contents into as few things as possible. obviously this wont affect a lot of things in the game but these liquids, it would be really nice to hit a button and take 8 containers partially filled with water or whatever, and consolidate them into a couple fully filled.

Same thing would be nice for bullets especially when you have a bunch of magazines and want to fill them all.

string is also a big issue when ripping clothing, having to manually consolidate each piece to make a full roll sucks.

at least some (if not all) of this was added to the latest stable build - certainly for thread ("string"), if you right click it you should get an "Add To" option, and can then "Consolidate All"

are you playing on the latest stable? or are you locked to the 41.68 build? (previous stable)

ok - just be aware that when they release the next stable version, they may well remove the 41.68 stable from the betas tab and replace it with the 41.71 stable (they did the same for the 41.68 release and and removed the 41.65 stable) - and that new release may well be very soon

also build 42 will likely not be for many months

also, you won't lose your game - just be sure to make a backup before loading into a new version (it will likely make a backup if the save version has changed, but it's worth making your own to be sure)

anyway, in the mean time, this mod is what you want:

no worries - but like i said - you may lose access to the 41.68 build in a few days or next week (whenever they release 41.73 stable) - and 41.71 includes most the features from that mod

but still - glad to be of help :-)
