Default Inventory Item Use

Hi there,

Just before I go on, I'd like to say that I haven't finished Episode 2 yet, I like to draw out my gameplaying experience by not smashing it all in one sitting, so hopefully no one spoils anything for me in this thread.

But anywho, I just have a little gripe that I couldn't seem to find a thread on, and was wondering if anyone else finds it as annoying as I do... it should be quite easy to fix as well!

Basically, it's annoying selecting an inventory item to use in the game world, and then when you find out you can't use it, you have to go into the inventory again to select it again. I'd prefer to be able to have it still selected until I right click or something to go back to the default.

Yep.

It's also a little annoying that instead of being about to just select an item in your inventory and click another to attempt to combine them, you have to select one, put it in a combining slot, select the second, put it in the other slot, and hit the combine button... it's kind of cumbersome and unnecessary. Having it as an option is fine, but I wish they'd add in simple click 'n drag as well.

Sometimes this happened, sometimes not. I can't find the source of why though.

I prefer it to disappear. Means that when I select an intentory item by mistake and want to get rid of it (I always forget about right click) it goes away quickly

When Guybrush says a generic comment (like 'Nah!' or 'Noooo!) the item stays, when he says a comment specific to that item and/or what he is trying to use it on ('I don't want to put that monkey in a coffin until he is well and truly dead!') the item disappears and has to be selected again.

If you want to ask why that happens, I got nothin'!
