: I think this needs to be changed in the next beta and returned to a correct
: Marathon behavior, as it really effects a fairly significant aspect of
: inventory management strategy. Alternately, for those who prefer the M2/MI
: behavior, you could make the (currently broken) correct Marathon behavior
: as default and then have a check box in the game preferences to select the
: M2/MI behavior, however checking this would break film and online
: compatibility.
This change has been pointed out to me, but still need to be convinced to make it. Yes, it does add a twist to inventory management, but it's not clear that it is by design.
It will definitely not be a preference checkbox! We need fewer of those, not more.
