Second-tier specialty bags

Many specialty bags have been suggested, like one for seeds, one for food, one for drinks and so on. Right now we have the Spice Rack, the Alchemistry Kit, the Elemental Pouch, a couple of Toolboxes...

Some of them could fit into a bag slot, not only a base slot. Like second-tier bags.

The Spice Rack, the Alchemistry Kit and a seed bag, for example, could believably do that. I guess a toolbox or a bag full of food wouldn't.

This would be a nice way to have more specialty bags without losing inventory space. In fact, increasing it.

What do you think?

ETA: A simple way to distinguish them can be this rule: If it's not a "bag" (as in "it's a Rack", "it's a Kit" and so on) it fits in a bag. Then again, what to do with a "box"?

  • 2 simple rules to govern bags:

    1. a larger bag CANNOT fit into a small bag and so on.
    2. bags can only go two deep (bag in a bag)

    Wouldn't that solve the bag issue?

  • Small bags in big bags/craft bags in big bags: yes please, as long as it doesn't kick the logic-y bits of the inventory in the face irrevocably!

  • There might be some difficulty with interface to keep track of where you are in your "layers."

    (For now, I settle for the ability of putting empty bags into bags. They fold up and squish! Come on!)

  • @LBO:  If it's small bags in big bags, it could display something like this: https://skitch.com/sleepfighter/fqck7/example

    and then doubleclick on the sub bag to open/close, kind of like with the current bag system. Might be a problem if you had a lot of tiny bags in one big one, though.

    (mcguivered quickly with the auction interface because it's what's open right now)
