*
or specific icons.
Step 2: Open the Interaction Menu
Press Spacebar or Enter to open the interaction menu.
A list of actions will appear, including the option to pick up items.
Step 3: Select the Item
Use the arrow keys or mouse to highlight the item you want to pick up.
Press Enter or the corresponding key to confirm.
Step 4: Manage Your Inventory
The item is now in your inventory. Press "i" to check your items.
Be aware of your carry weight. If you’re overburdened, you’ll move slower or not at all.
