Inventory MechanicsEvery player has a special container menu called the "Inventory" that lets you carry the items you find in Star Wars Galaxies. You can reach it either by pressing CTRL-I or by pressing the inventory button on your button bar in the lower left corner of the screen. You can identify the inventory icon, on the button bar, with a suitcase. Your Inventory has a limited capacity, and there's a bar at the bottom showing you how much room you've taken up. Items that are currently equipped or are being worn will show up with a green background. The inventory may hold up to 80 items. Equipped items do not count towards the limit. After finding a container or corpse with items in it, you'll probably want to drag those items to your inventory. A player may not go beyond this carrying capacity else they will be forced into a stationary position until they lower the container amount to be at or under the limit. This circumstance could occur for example if a player has a full inventory and also a backpack container equipped that also has items in it. If this player equips another back pack then the contents of the previous one will be added to the player's inventory and thus overloading them. The player would have to re-equip the old backpack or delete items in order to be able to move again.
If the object is a piece of clothing, armor or a weapon, you will have the option to equip it. This will place the item onto your character. You can also do this quickly by double clicking the item in your inventory. Items that are currently being worn or are equipped on your character will highlighted in green. If the object is a piece of food, a medical stim pack, crafting tool or similar item, there will be a "Use" option. If you click your mouse over the use option, more options may appear specific for the item. For instance, you can hold your mouse button on a surveying tool. The "Use" and "Examine" choice will expand from the activated radial menu. If you move your cursor to "Use", and continue to hold down the mouse button, you will additionally receive a new option to choose beneath it. Other typical options for the use radial with items from the inventory include the "Split" radial used to take stacked items apart into smaller pieces. Additionally there are the drink/eat options to consume foods and beverages. There is also the "Repair" option for using repair tools, and the Drop option to remove items from the inventory and place them inside a structure or into the world such as in using certain instruments, dropping vendors, or placing objects into a player structure. For pharmaceuticals such as healing stims or wound packs, radials such as heal damage and heal wound are displayed. Inventory Radials
