Inventory window | Equipment DayZ - ArmA 2 mod Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

As of yet, the inventory window (and managing it especially) is rather troublesome and many new players "lose" items because of it. A moment of inattention can cause you to (sometimes irretrievably because of a bug) lose an important piece of equipment. Let's start from the beginning.

1. A list of all items in the inventory and loots from opened "containers"

2. Optical instrument (2 slots)

3. Main weapon (1 slot)

4. Backpack (1 slot)

5. Sidearm (1 slot)

6. Inventory (12 slots for medicine, food, ammunition for your main weapon etc.)

7. Ammunition and bandages (8 slots)

8. Tools (12 slots)

9. Description of chosen item

10. Sorting filters

As you can see, the inventory window is split into segments (coloured in the above screen) which are used solely to store given types of items. It helps you keep an organized inventory, but also limits space for items of a given kind.
