Once Human

Temporary Backpack alert: solutions
Save your valuable items. Read on to find out how:
Like many people I have been receiving alerts that in 2 days I will lose the contents of my temporary backpack. Apparently when you end a season and all your possessions are transferred to Eternalland there is a limit to the number of items and the overflow goes into a Temporary Backpack with a time limit. Once Human has not made the process clear at all but I hope what I have found can help people as confused as I was to save their items before they are lost forever.
If you click "I" when the alert appears your Temporary Backpack will appear on the right. There are options to Withdraw all or Sell all. Unfortunately withdrawing items will not work until you have removed some of your Eternalland Backpack inventory.
To do so you can escape the Temporary Backpack and discard items from the Eternalland Backpack or leave your backpack altogether, then press escape, then the Eternalland island symbol on top of the page then Shop Order then Sell then the island symbol again and sell items - though it only shows some types (eg no tools other than fishing rods, no ammo).
Once you have made space in your Eternalland inventory you can return to the Temporary Backpack by entering Backpack, clicking the Island symbol at the bottom, then a Temporary Backpack symbol will appear on the right side of the page - right click that. When you hover over items you don't want to lose right click to transfer them to your Eternalland Backpack inventory.
There are a few problems I still have with the system. When in Temporary Backpack (on the right of screen) you can see one part of the Eternalland Backpack inventory but not change which section is displayed or interact with any items in the Eternalland Backpack inventory. So to check my Legendary calibrations were safely transferred I had to close the Temporary Backpack, switch to the tools inventory tab on my Eternalland Backpack then reopen the Temporary Backpack. Also not being able to sell items from the Eternalland inventory like the thousands of bullets I have is annoying.

Yeah the eternaland storage is limited to like 500 different items/stacks of items. Once I noticed this I started dropping all my excess trash ores before ending a season
i clean my today you can discard all from the normal game.
Most item that goes there are a Joke for what i need 80000 Dirty Water or Wood and so on.They need to limit what goes there only things that are usefull and no things that you can easy get in a new Game at level 1
I agree. It is really silly that some players are probably losing highly valuable calibrations because the game thinks they want to keep dirty water, copper ammo and ores. Most items are far too expensive to make transferring them with the limited 20000 points viable.
