Inventory Tetris – Grid Based Inventory Overhaul [B42]

Project Zomboid Inventory Tetris: A Grid-Based Overhaul

Are you tired of the same old inventory management in Project Zomboid? Do you find yourself wishing for a more tactile and visually engaging way to organize your survival essentials? Look no further than Inventory Tetris, a comprehensive overhaul designed to transform how you interact with every item you find.

A Whole New Way to Pack

Inventory Tetris replaces the traditional inventory system with a dynamic grid-based layout. This fundamental change means every item now possesses a distinct size, forcing you to think strategically about how you pack. No more simply stuffing items into containers; you’ll be fitting them together like a puzzle. This system also brings a satisfying visual representation to your equipped bags, allowing you to see exactly what’s inside each one at a glance. Bags now contribute tangible inventory space, rather than just offering weight reduction, adding another layer of depth to your scavenging runs.

Key Features for Enhanced Survival

• Grid-based inventory system where all items have a size.
• Simultaneous viewing of all equipped bag inventories.
• Worn items no longer consume valuable inventory space.
• Rebalanced container sizes and item stacking for greater challenge.
• Full controller support for seamless gameplay.
• Improved compatibility with other mods.
• Extensive bug fixes and performance optimizations.

Intuitive Controls and Gameplay Tweaks

Managing your inventory has never been easier with a host of new controls. Drag and drop functionality is central, allowing for effortless item manipulation. Hold CTRL to split stacks or use quick move for rapid transfers. Double-clicking containers opens them in a convenient popup window, while double-clicking stackable items initiates a quick gather. For those needing to orient items, a simple ‘R’ key press handles rotation. The mod also intelligently integrates with existing traits, giving new meaning to characteristics like ‘Organized’ and ‘Disorganized’, and enhances the ‘Dextrous’ and ‘All Thumbs’ traits with tangible gameplay effects.

Search Mode and Mod Compatibility

Activate ‘Search Mode’ through sandbox settings to add an extra layer of realism, requiring you to actively search containers before looting. Inventory Tetris is also designed with extensive mod compatibility in mind, automatically assessing and sizing items from other modifications. Even existing saves can seamlessly integrate this overhaul, with only minor considerations for inventory space upon initial addition.
