==Inventory Management==
==Inventory Management==
===Ship Cargo Hold===
Your ship is equipped with a [[Cargo Hold]] that you can use to store excess items. The cargo hold is accessible several ways:
* While inside your ship, by opening your inventory menu and PRESSING LB (Xbox)/Q Key (PC).
* Selecting Cargo from your ship menu while on or near your ship.
* Activating the Cargo panel from your ship’s cockpit.
====TIP====
It’s a good idea to store heavy crafting materials and resources in your ship’s cargo. Typically the Cargo Hold is located near the cockpit, but depending on your ship design, it may be located in other areas of the ship. For more information on managing your ship's cargo, visit our article: [[How do you access the ship's cargo?]]
===Companion Inventory===
* You can offload excess items to a [[Companion]]. Be aware that crafting stations will not pull from your companion’s inventory.
* You can transfer items to your companions by talking to them and selecting the option "Let's trade gear."
* Each companion has their own mass capacity and you will get a message when they can't hold anymore.
** You can see this on your companions inventory screen. In this example, the "Adoring Fan" can hold up to 165 mass.
===Favorites List===
Weapons and Aid items can be assigned to your [[Favorites List]] from your inventory. Favorite items are quickly accessible by [D-PAD] on Xbox Controller or [Q] on Keyboard. This will give you easy access to all the items that you often use in-game.
===Packs and Spacesuits===
* Your [[Spacesuits]] and Packs all have different Mass capacity.
* Keep an eye on what pack you have equipped as some have higher capacity than others.
* When you visit a Spacesuit Workbench, you can upgrade your packs and spacesuits with “Extra Capacity.”
** If you do not have the materials to upgrade your pack, don’t forget to hit the option to track items!
===Skills===
There are different [[Skills]] that you can rank up to help with your character's inventory and cargo space.
* The skill "Payloads" maximizes your cargo space.
* The skill "Weight Lifting" increases your character's carrying capacity.
===Outpost Storage===
Building storage at your [[Outposts]] will allow you to store items or transfer items between your different inventories (character, ship and outposts). There are three different kinds of storage that you can build:
* Solid -- Bulk storage for any kind of solid mineral or organic resource.
* Liquid -- Bulk storage for any kind of liquid.
* Gas -- Bulk storage for any kind of gas.
===Ship’s Cargo===
For additional cargo space for your ship, you will need to go to “[[Ship Builder]]” and select Add (or press G) and buy a Cargo to add it to your ship.
===Inventory Order and Symbols===
You can check the mass that your character can hold from your character menu or inventory. When your character exceeds mass limit, you will become [[Overencumbered]]. If you receive any of these notifications, you can fix it by dropping some items from your inventory or you can transfer items to your companion, outpost or ship.
====Sorting and Symbols====
* You can sort your inventory by Name, Value or Weight from the inventory screen.
* There are different symbols that you can find in your character’s inventory:
** Red = Stolen Item
** Yellow = Contraband Item
** Exclamation Sign = New Item
** Blue Magnifying Glass = Searched Item
** Heart = Favorited item
** Triangle = Equipped item
===Ammo===
Ammunition does not weigh anything. However, items such as grenades or mines do have a weight.
===Sell to Vendors===
You can sell to vendors from your characters direct inventory and from your ship inventory directly.
