How many times have we had the problem where we run over the heal capsule over and over, not picking it up, assuming we just missed... then the fire finally takes us out. Come to find out some sleep potion or something has lodged itself in the health capsule's intended slot, heart-blocking us.

So, I suggest an option to reserve a slot for health items. That way, you won't pick up anything in slot 1 that isn't a health capsule. Or slot 4. Or whatever. Nothing fancy, just like disabling autopickup in some kind of FPS.

Thanks

Something needs to be done.

Something needs to be done. Health pills are ALWAYS more important than what you're carrying.

No and Yes

This is beyond the scope of my suggestion, and I do not agree.

Something needs to be done. Health pills are ALWAYS more important than what you're carrying.

Mayhap an "importance table" that can be edited and toggled, with lower-importance items being autodropped for higher importance ones? That would also be nifty but it might be too much "help".

Well...either the player is too lazy to look at the pill if it disappeared to see if he picked it up or he's just blind to see that there is no color red and white on his item slots...but I agree with the idea if there's an "Importance Table" in it...it would be annoying if you're a total range player and don't use potions but instead us lots of offensive items that you can throw...

Meanwhile you might do this,

Meanwhile you might do this, I know that in the middle of the fight it isn't the best thing to do, but hey, we have to deal with it hehe: Umlock HUD, drag an item you don't want off the bar and pick the health capsule :)
(this is obviously for anyone who didn't know that already, for those who did, sorry for wasting your time)

XD...or the alternative (As I do it at least) I equip the item I'm going to thrash and throw them to enemies chasing me...if not enemies that are chasing my party members or I just aim at the largest group...and i run back to the HP capsule :D....if a party member takes the health capsule I normally do nothing

How about an upgrade that

How about an upgrade that allows us an extra vial slot, or the ability to carry >3 vials of the same type?
