you think THAT'S bad, at 9 I spent my life's savings (about 15 pp) on
a tentacle whip, and dropped it with a wisp banging on me, and lost it.

It would be a tremendous help if inventory hot-boxes acted like the rest,
i.e. if primary melee was in box 1, pressing 1 would pick up your weapon
on the mouse, and pressing it again would put it back. As it is, you just
have to be careful about mouse placement, which is hard if it starts
lagging (a frequent occurrence in a big fight)
