maybe you click on one of your items beside the weapons (like energy drink or adrenal to revive ko people)
Example I couldn´t talk to anybody, cause was trying to cure fatigue and since it didn´t had a mouse over icon.
and that small white block to show it is active is so unnoticable.

Only a hint. then it prevent other functions from activation.
Medkit and Lockpick do have a icon. but some other stuff don´t.

Equipped items count towards weight carried

I ran into a bug yesterday with an item i couldnt pick up,and started to play with character capacity.Ive noticed some odd things about it....

Most common one is,you want to pick up a 2lb object,but your char only has 1 lb free,so you put down a 1lb obect...You should now have 2 pounds free,but you often still cant pick up that 2 pound object.You often have to open up more than the weight of the new object before you can pick it up.Its like some of the put down objects weight doesnt fully clear from your inventory...

Another is,often you can put an item in your inventory by dragging it,but it wont go if you use the arrows .....According to the arrows,you dont have the capacity.....but according to the drag method it fits in just fine :P

Tempest that is exactly what I am referring to. That is the exact bug.

I have gone as far as to clear an entire inventory of items into a container from a character. And it still will not even let me pick up a single item i just dropped!

Is this happening for you guys with a specific item every time?

Not that i noticed,but theres usually a lot of items in inventory when i run into it and i didnt specifically test to see if i could pick out any of them that might be the cause. It also seems sporadic,can go thru an entire map and not run into it.

i was thinking about seeing if it was caused by being wounded..if perhaps there was some penalty to capacity ,intentional or bug ,that messed with the total one could carry.

I can say that I checked my carry weight and I was overloading my characters at one point. But it still happened where I could take all my inventory into a container and not pick a single item back up.

I left the map and returned later and I was able to retrieve items. Also draggin items manually over to the my inventory indiviudally seemed to take care of some this too.

If anyone having this issue can upload a save showcasing the example illustrated above, where you can put all the items from your inventory into a container but can't take any out, it would be very helpful. The devs can fix bugs a lot faster if they can see it in action. A save from before depositing the items into a container would work best.

Thanks!

Strange enough the transfer button to my pack doesn't work but dropping the desired item directly onto the first row of my items sometimes allows me to pick up items.

It seems to happen when you are nearly overloaded.

I just had a data pile (.10 pounds) that wouldn't pick up and I was 20 pounds from full weight capicity.

I have save of the cant pick up item bug.Its a data pack once again,this time on a dead raider.It weighs 0.10 , the char has 1.10 free.Iget no message about why i cant pick it up,no interaction at all with the item is possible.

unfortunately ,i only have a save from the after point,the before point save is before a very long combat,where the raider and zoms are still alive.

Ive played with the save a bit,after a couple of loads i got some interaction with it,but still cant put it in my inventory.

Before the save reloadings,i couldnt pick it up and or drag it,now i can.
Before the save reloading i couldnt select it and try to move it via arrow,now i can.

But as i said,despite having many times the needed capacity,i still cannot put it in my inventory.
