Don't drop 2 handed items out of your backpack with only 1 free hand. - valtsu0 - 03-14-2024

Currently, if you try to take a 2 handed item from your back (or anywhere else) you will drop it onto the ground. Instead you should be unable to move it.
I do admit this is mostly a skill issue, but i can't say i have ever wanted to do that. Instead, i have accidentally dropped tasers and nukie weapons quite a lot of times.

I think it poses the biggest issues for characters who have one arm. If you lose an arm and you instinctively reach for your taser, you drop it and you can't pick it back up again, and then some little staffie comes and steals your taser. I think a nice little message like "You can't hold that with one hand!" message would work nicely.

Seems like a good shout. If it is implemented, it would be good if failing to take a 2 handed gun out of your bag still made a gun draw noise and put something in chat.

how do you pull things out your backpack with one arm if this is the case?
