A container groups items together, for example Backpack, Equipped or Ship Storage. Containers are optional.
Create a container
- Open the inventory and click New Container.
- Enter a Name. You can also add a Description and an image.
- Click Create Container.
To put an item in a container, choose the container in the item's Container field when you add or edit the item. Or click + Item on the container to add a new item straight into it.
The buttons on a container
- Edit Container — change the name, description or image.
- Transfer — move the container and every item inside it to another inventory. See 9.5 for where you can send it.
- + Item — add a new item to this container.
- The arrow next to the container's name opens and closes it. If you can manage the inventory, this is saved, so everyone sees the container open or closed the way you left it.
A container also shows its total weight, when its items have a weight. The total uses each item's Item Weight multiplied by its quantity. Only weights that start with a number count: "2 lb" counts as 2, but "about 2 lb" is ignored.
Change the order
When an inventory has two or more containers, click Sort Containers. Drag the containers into the order you want. The new order is saved as you drag. Click Save and Refresh to reload the inventory and see it.
Delete a container
Click Edit Container, then Delete Container, and confirm. The items inside are not deleted. They move out of the container into the main part of the inventory.
