Quality of Life - Potions

[Supply Side Jesus]

There are buff potions in the game, such as +10 strength, please make them consumable form the backpack instead of asking to equip them, use them, then equip healing or mana potions back.

Yeah, this would be good. Yesterday I needed to drink an owl potion, so I could see at night, but it required me to unequip other potion, then re-equip them and it felt unnecessary. The same should be possible for food because hotkeys should only be used in order to avoid accessing the inventory.

You can equip four potions and then sort them on 'E'.
You can also directly consume them by pressing 'W' + 1/2/3/4 for each slot.

How? What do you mean?

There are 4 potion slots in inventory, check section "UI Player equipment": https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2913924981

I read this guide and still not getting it. If I try to drag and drop potions onto the bar, they get dropped on the ground. The only way I found to equip one is to RIGHT-CLICK one in the inventory while stats page is displayed. Very incontinent if you ask me.

So what do you mean "4 potion slots", I can find only one, assigned to W.

Similarly, very inconvenient that I have to equip food to eat it and not just consume it out of backpack.

I found it. It is on the paper doll screen.

Not an easy to find unless you know it exists.

Also consuming via W +1/2/3/4 is not great, as you do so blindly. Why not have 4 slots on the bar so you can see it?

it is very unintuitive.

Yeah, the hotbar for potions would be better because often during combat I tend to mistap on the keyboard and change my potion. Already happened to me that I almost died because accidentally I change a health potion for a mana one.

Actually, it would be nice if we could have more freedom how to rebind keys. I would probably put some of the potions on my mouse keys as they are unused at the moment.

Of the opinion food and potions should be part of the same UI and one can cycle through either food or potions. Main reason why one would want this is it's rare to need four potions but there were definitely times one may wanted more than a single food item equipped at once. This way one could decide if they go heavier on food or potions in any ratio they prefer.
