Slime Internal Storage Implementation is Lacking

First of all, when you play as a Slime, you have to right click yourself to open your internal storage. Why? Storage Implant has an action you can assign to your hotbar that opens a storage. Why doesn’t Slime storage work like that? We have species specific actions like the Spider web feature, so I don’t see why Slimes can’t get their own.

To add to this, accessing a Slime’s interal storage is unintuitive for everyone else too. It should be on the strip menu, like literally every other item on a person you can interact with. Perhaps Slimes could get an expanded strip menu?

Overall, the storage feature that Slimes get is clunky, and if I want the extra storage, I much prefer to play a Spider with slots I can quickly access on my screen, rather than navigating through right clicking with hoverstates.

tacking a gridinv to the stripmenu doesn’t seem fun. and making the slime storage not a gridinv doesn’t seem fun either. make it a alt-click interaction

I think the cleanest solution is to add a button to the strip menu (where the Spider’s extra pockets would be) that when clicked/E’d will just open the Slime internal storage.

That seems like a dangerous kind of coupling, or at least harder to maintain.
The strip menu is for stripping, not for checking people’s inventories.

Slime’s inventory is just that, an inventory. It is not just another equipment slot.

It is already pretty BS that people can just reach in and grab from it. It does not need to be made even easier either.

it is on the slimes description that anyone can steal or put stuff in there. and honestly it is neat. I use it to store low-value items. heck sometimes I even store contra in there and watch security forget about it… or I store it in a random slimes pocket :slight_smile:

can slimes make a different sound when you hug them? like more of a sloshy gooey sound. (think of the sound kinda like when you finish butchering an animal)
