Mod Request: Inventory Bags
My idea is having craftable bags that you keep in your inventory. The bags act as an in-inventory, portable storage device and reduces the weight of items you have transferred into the bag by a certain percentage(adjustable in an .ini). You access the bags by putting them in the hotbar and use them, then their storage UI(like a storage box) pops up, allowing you to take things in/out.

Not super realistic, but would be really useful on long treks and help with carrying so many resources. Anyway, hope someone could make this. I would do it, but I know absolutely 0 about modding ARK.

Why do that when you can just increase the weight you gain per level? Make it 30 instead of 10. Personally that mod would feel weird to me. If anything that idea would make your weight heavier, not lighter.

A) it would allow you to save skills to boost health/dmg/etc, not for weight.
B) Something in your inventory is say 30, putting it in one of the crafted bags would decrease it weight by(configured in the .ini) x%, say 20%. That means it weighs around 24 instead. Not much, but imagine several things at once. So 100 in the bag would actually weigh 80 on your character(as long as it's in the bag).

The idea behind this is reducing clutter and being able to carry more on long treks and the logic is that having bags strapped to your character would place the items in a balanced place, on your back/hips/etc, freeing up your hands, allowing you to carry more. The bags wouldnt be visable on your character in-game, but thats the logic behind it. Bag icons/physical models are already in-game, so would just require someone to program it into a working order.
