Bug Description:
Inventory auto scrolls to top of inventory when using shift click to move items out of inventory
Bug Reproduction:
- Have an inventory that contains enough lines that scrolling is required
- A player may reasonably use methods for making storage more organized, as such, will have preferences about which items in their inventory should move
- Based on those preferences a player may have to scroll (BECAUSE IF YOU SEARCH ITEMS THEY DO NOT AUTO SORT TO TOP ANYMORE!!!)
- Once scrolled to desired item, a player will use old habits such as: shift + click item
- The shift+click will move the item but causes the inventory to slingshot back up to the top while in sort modes: Name, Heaviest First or Type
The workaround to this is double clicking or using drumroll NO SORT. I do not want to use No Sort, it is very restrictive and has no flow. Having had to adapt to this issue in other sort modes is uncomfortable and straining on my dominant/mouse hand and wrist. Instead of simply holding shift and manoeuvring my mouse to the desired item and clicking once, I have to manoeuvre my mouse to each item double click, double click, double click, repeat. If I don’t use the double click method then I am using my finger on the mouse wheel each time. This cannot be intended behaviour and if it is, it is counterintuitive to comfortable UI management and gameplay.
It is also frustrating that 2 methods of workflow have been ostensibly chucked out of the game or made broken (shift+click, item search with auto sort to top). Here’s a video, now imagine I’m shift clicking.
This issue was pre-existing.
