The Inventory is an interface that shows both items players collect and the ability to craft in it as well. It's accessible by pressing the I key by default and is currently the only way to craft items. Most items are equipped from here. With the Quick Select feature, assigning items with the corresponding numbers (1-4) can be used to access most items quickly at ease without the inventory opening.
The noticeable background of the inventory is a dynamic picture related to the time of day and the surroundings. Hovering the mouse over anything in the inventory will create an information tooltip for that item and give the option to craft, consume, or equip the item. Add items to the crafting section by clicking right mouse button. Pressing either ESC or I again will close the inventory.
In Normal Mode while using Single-player, the game will pause, however will prevent stamina regeneration. In Hard Mode, Hard Survival Mode and all modes of Multiplayer, accessing the inventory does not pause the game, thus allowing stamina regeneration and continuing the game normally as if the inventory wasn't opened.
Opening the inventory plays a sound effect but does not attract unwanted attention nor scare off creatures.
