Cannot refill water bottles or select separate items that stack in the hot bar.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

When ever multiple Water bottles or other items that have refill properties are in your hot bar you can not select those items separately as they are stacked.

This has been most noticeable with water bottles. In order to refill a water bottle it must be in your hand. The easiest way to do so is to select it from your hot bar, then refill it. However if you have multiple bottles, they will stack, and the UI will not let you choose between them. So the only way to fill your second, or third bottle is to fill the first one, remove it from your hands, then drop it, then use the hotbar to grab the second bottle to fill.

This is a very cumbersome problem.

I noticed the same issue, but I'd like to clarify - you can refill the second container. My testing indicated that it fills the first container (top to bottom) in the inventory, so swapping the two containers inside the bag such that the empty one is above the filled one should allow it to be filled. Hopefully this helps with the repro.

Ok found a bit of a fix, at least makes it a bit easier to fill the bottles.
I still propose that this be looked into.

  1. Acquire 2 empty water bottles
  2. Empty your hands by clicking the red X
  3. Drag the first bottle to fill into hands
  4. Fill the bottle
  5. Empty hands with the red X
  6. Drag second bottle to hands
  7. Fill it.

Still a bit cumbersome but its much easier and less time consuming then before.
