[Suggestion] Add a Loot/Take All Key Bind

Sometimes hitting F to pickup all harvested materials, doesn't auto close out the inventory automatically. This one's especially annoying, feels like it really slows things down.

Agreed, using the loot all option after skinning animals should automatically close the inventory window as there's nothing left to do with the animal.

If open a box or creature inventory with F or E that key should also allow you to leave the box instead of the close button at bottom. Those crucial seconds can be life of death if a wolf or bear comes up and you're stuck in the inventory.

When you finish skinning you are presented with a loot window. If you take all (F), you should be able to hit (F) again to close the window.

The button that opens the container is the F key.

The F key is also the key to move all items from the container's inventory to the character's inventory.

Therefore, when I open the container's inventory, pressing the F key twice will transfer all the items to my inventory.

In light of the above, please change the button for transferring all items, or change it to something like SHIFT+F key.

It should close on its own when you Loot All

I agree, it needs to close on it's own as once you "take all" then it's a useless window, the only option from here is to close anyway (assuming all items have actually been removed from the carcass)

Currently on the cargo boxes you use the letter "F" to open them which is fine, however you have to "un-train" yourself to reuse "F" and to use the "Close" button instead to close the box or you end up with all of the items in your inventory from the box, which is very annoying. So instead of using "Close" use "F" again to close once the box is open which people are more use to.

Bring back F to loot all button. Skinning animals is tedious now.

We used to be able to hold/press (can't remember which) to loot all from an animal corpse. I'm assuming this missing key binding is a bug and not an intended feature? I recall someone asking for a button to loot all, which is good, but I believe the intent was to have this in combination with the key binding.

I understand that it was probably reverted when they changed it for chests, but being able to collect all quickly for skinning felt really fluid and handy.

It is great that F no longer loots all but it would be nice to be able to close a container with the same key that we open it with.
As an added suggestion having a loot all key might be nice, just different from the opening and closing key, like the G or H key when in the container.

BW2 I lost count how many times I accidentally looted all from a chest by instinctively hitting "F" to close. It really got on my nerves.

The loot all button is a nice improvement, but I don't see the need for the button. It's already suggested that the loot-all button should close the container, but I don't think that's always desirable in the case of storage crates and such. I might want to loot all and put one or two items back.

Using "F" to both open and close the container, and Shift-F to loot all gives the best of both worlds.

You can F/Shift-F/F in a fraction of a second to loot an animal, you won't accidentally loot all, you won't need to click a button to loot all (frantically looking for your mouse cursor while a carebear is munching on your buttocks), and open and close are the same button.

Not only is take all a common feature in games with containers, it is always accompanied by a button to activate it...until now, when the Devs removed the feature without thinking that their upvote website does not have a "down vote" option. I'm not alone as one of the players who took full and capable advantage of this hotkey.

Devs, please fix your mistake and reenable keyboard activation of take all for containers (e.g., looting animal carcasses). This time, without removing the feature wholesale, just add it to the key bindings so players that don't spam the F key can use it, and those who do can either unbind it or bind it to another key.

I think what people want is a take all button for looting, but when it comes to storage container we do not want it

It would be lovely if when you are in a chest, skinning and animal or something you could press "F" instead of "Tab" to close the loot screen

Honestly was thinking about this some more as well, perhaps a short hold F to loot all could work with a single press to close the container?

I was surprised the F to loot all was removed... until I saw it was upvoted. I wish there were a downvote option, to say "hey, I use this... don't change it".

The spawning system seems to like dropping in new mobs while you are bent over a corpse, skinning/looting it (even if you scanned and nothing was around you when you started), and not having quick/simple ways to grab and get out of this screen is... fatal

Beta Weekend 2 had given us the ability to hit F to take all, but during Beta Weekend 3 that option was gone. It's a real pain when you're fighting a wolf pack and you can't loot a carcass fast enough because you have to click the "Take All" button just to empty the animal loot. Please add the F key back into the mix so we can skin it faster. Thanks!

Chris Merged

When I kicked this off I literally just meant it for chests/storage. Noticed F doesn't auto loot corpses anymore, and they should put it back on for corpses. In most cases if we bother skinning, we want the materials on the corpse. Sometimes we just want arrows, but there's not enough on there imo to really warranty removing F to auto loot those.
Storage on the other hand, is a nightmare, and should be click only =)

I hate that the press F to loot all QoL feature was removed just because some people can't control how many times they press F. Was much better beforehand.

Norbu Merged

There are 2 different use cases to the player that the game handles the same way:
1. Skinning animals - 90% of the time the player wants to take all as quickly as possible and close the dialog.
-> We need a "take all and close" hotkey here
2. Opening storages - 90% of the time the player wants to move selected items only and avoid to overload himself
-> A take all" hotkey identcal with the "open" hotkey is prone to accidental double taps. At least use different hotkeys.

I don't like the shift-F to loot all either. Please put it back the way it was initially with a simple F key to loot all. Getting attacked while skinning happens all the time. People can die and loose all their xp progress on their current level because their cursor isn't at the right spot to quickly close that window. This is much more painful that accidentally taking all from a storage chest.

Perhaps removing any hotkey function from the storage chest would be better for those who get frustrated with having to resort things back into the container. At least when you're sorting items back into the chests you're not likely to be attacked and killed by a pack of wolves.

It would be nice to be able to use the same key to open a 'container' as to close it. I.e. when looking over all my chests it would be nice if I could map the close button to be the same as the open button.

Chewbacca Merged

why not make separate functions that are mappable.
F - open/close container
R - loot all and close while in container

Panic Merged

Instead of completely getting rid of the loot all key, keep the current button and add an optional key binding to appease all player types. Even though it was slightly annoying to loot the whole inventory with F, it was very useful in skinning and a quick grab-and-go. I think the key was a very useful QOL mechanism, but it was just bound to the wrong key.

I died a little inside when the F to loot button went away from animals while being butchered...it seemed that to appease a percentage of the community who couldn't keep their finger off of the F key they removed it from everything lootable.

Hitting the Interact key (F) when on a "container" UI would dismiss that UI (close it), like hitting Esc does. It's preferable to not have to move your hand any more than necessary, especially when doing common/repeated actions. Opening and closing containers, especially when going through multiple ones looking for something, is the best use case to illustrate the value of this.

Please make a bind for loot all, we can use it to close ui faster after skinning.
