also I am having trouble figuring out how to access the materials in the backpack, because when you go into inventory and go down, it skips over all the stuff in the backpack, though this could just be me not understanding how to work the game.
Thanks for the feedback. Just yesterday, I was thinking of making a "Survivorpedia" which is basically a manual in the game where you can look up how to do various things such as making a fire. So this is on my to-do list but it will take a while to finish. Until then, feel free to send me questions about how to do various things in the game. I have considered making youtube tutorials but they are harder to maintain when the game changes. Regarding your last comment, it makes sense to be able to view information about items inside containers when you are in the (i)nventory menu so let me look into that and try to include it within the next few days or weeks. To be able to interact with (and not just view) items in containers, you need to (u)nload them first. I have added your name to the Credits and it will appear in the next version that I upload (probably in a few days).
