Minor inconvinience when picking up multiple objects

[Kraehe]

Hi, pretty new to the game so I don´t know if this has been the case for a while or is new.
The issue is, if I pick up, say, two oxygen canisters. The full one from the recycler and the empty one from the oxygen generator and then try to place the full one back into the generator, this only works if I have been holding the full one it in the left hand.
As soon as I have something in the left hand, placing anything from the right hand becomes impossible without freeing the left hand first.

Rightclick just places the left hand item. Not sure if bug or feature, either way slightly annoying. Especially in stressfull situations.

What you describe -- juggling items between your hands and doing it under pressure -- is pretty much the essence of the game.

I believe it's a bug, it was fine (right click accurately places item from right hand) when I bought this on winter sale, but the 1.0.0.7 updates kinda messed up the functions of left click and right click. In the previous update (1.0.0.7.b) it was worse (see https://steamcommunity.com/app/1315980/discussions/1/634541741925509865/). I guess they tried to fix it for the current 1.0.0.7.c but didn't quite nail it. At least the item on the right hand is not dropped now, it was a nightmare scouring the zero-G lights-out tin can for the dropped item.

Oh, you're right. The left and right hand should behave completely independently. I don't notice because I usually stay in perpetual zero-g (to scavenge the components and prevent them being damaged) so one hand is almost always holding a handle to move around.
