With the recent update Obsidian made it so when you equip a tool or weapon, it pulls it from your inventory. Which on the surface sounds good because it frees up a slot in your bag.
But the issue I have is that I like to keep my inventory organized. And this destroys inventory management. When you switch from one tool to another, it switches their spots in your bag, and ruins it all.
I think I'd rather lose out on that extra slot honestly
