Some feedback from a few hours in the demo: - a true pause would be highly appreciated. Sometimes you just have something that needs you attention and it would rock to be able to feel safe pausing the game for a while. - can't pick up weapons straight into your weapon slots, if you have an empty weapon slot but your inventory is full. - autosorting would be a godsend - I would like for the in-game music to play while in the shelters, but very rarely (if at all) while out in the world. - sleeping could have a small cost to energy/hydration, like map-to-map travel. Sleeping could also increase mental? - dynamic HUD elements. I like playing the game with minimal HUD, but I don't like checking stats constantly. it would be nice to see vitals when things get to the point it needs your attention, for example the HUD gets a red hydration symbol only when your hydration goes into the red. Same for pretty much every element that currently is a trackable stat: health, stamina etc... - dragging items to your current equipment drops them if they are not compatible. I'd like for them to return to the slot they were at. Otherwise I have to keep picking up my stuff when I'm figuring out all the attachments! Thank you for the demo and for all the effort & time you're putting in the game. It is shaping up to be something truly special.

Right now it seems to only work picking ammo up in the world, not from containers and not when emptying magazines/weapons.

Is Auto-stacking on ammo working for everyone else? Not me :(
