Inventory item size

Not sure if this has been brought up before, but I think the looting and inventory management would benefit from not having all items take up 1 grid square. It doesn't make much sense for a rifle to take up the same size as a medkit or a can of beans. Look at STALKER, DayZ and Tarkov as an example. Having items take up different sized grid squares forces the player to be more strategic about what loot to take and what to leave, rather than hoarding dozens of items. The inventory grid could even expand based on backpack size and quality. I'm sure this will change later in development, but I think it's worth giving feedback and having a discussion about during this early stage.

I think stacks for medicals and food would be good, and maybe more storage in the attic cause i feel like the box just isnt enough

I'm pretty much ok with stacking for crafting items, but especially stacking meds and food will most likely not happen since you could take way too much of these items with you without caring about inventory space and therefore it would make the game too easy.

For Storage, once again, the whole Attic is a Storage not only the box. You can Place items everywhere in your Attic in they will get saved.

Items like ammo and cold meds should be stackable in the inventory, I am more talking about the fact that currently everything takes up 1 grid square. Bigger items like rifles should take up 2x4 grid squares,or pistols 2x2 for example. Otherwise you can easily horde an unrealistic amount of loot including poor quality weapons dropped by the enemies
