[17.25] Equipment grid does not change when changing modular armor types if UI is open

Post by Dev-iL »

Steps to reproduce (demonstrated in the animation below):
1) Have some sort of modular armor equipped.
2) Have another sort of modular armor in the inventory.
3) Open character inventory + modular armor UI.
4) While everything is open, take the armor from the inventory and put it in the armor slot.

Result: new armor equipped, but old armor's grid is visible.

Thanks for the report however that's working correctly. You have that exact armor open and once open it's unrelated to the inventory slot it was in when you opened it.

Is it not supposed to be your current armor? Otherwise why make that window attached to the player inventory, and not a popup close to the armor? Something about this GUI is definitely confusing.....

Nope. It's just "the armor you have open". It shows your inventory so you can add/remove equipment. That's how it has worked since equipment grids where added 6 years ago in version 0.7.0 and you're the first person I've ever heard say it was confusing.
