If your inventory skin pouch slot is full in Sons of the Forest, you may wonder if you’re experiencing a bug. These pouches are mainly obtained from killing cannibals and can contain valuable items like ammo, meds, duct tape, and food. Typically, you pick these up, open them, take the contents, and throw them away. However, some players report a glitch that keeps you from opening them, preventing you from picking up more skin pouches in Sons of the Forest.
Is my skin pouch full inventory a bug in Sons of the Forest?
If you get a message saying “can’t carry any more skin pouches” in Sons of the Forest, and you can’t open them, you’re probably experiencing a bug. When this glitch occurs, you’ll stay at your limit of six skin pouches and can’t pick up more.
While this might seem like a minor issue, it’s actually a massive handicap because of how valuable the items you can get from the pouches are. In particular, it’s a great way to get more ammo and meds, which can be rare.
However, the way skin pouches work is a bit confusing, so you may have a full inventory of them without knowing you can open them. To open a skin pouch, you first click on it in your inventory, which moves it to the center work area. Then, click on the gear in the upper right corner, and you’ll open it and remove the contents.
If this doesn’t work, there are a few fixes you can try:
- Build a shelf and move the skin pouches in your inventory onto it.
- Save, exit the game, restart it, and see if opening skin pouches works as expected.
- Drop any items that you have the max amount of and then try to open a pouch.
Sons of the Forest is in early access, so this bug (and others, like crashing) should be addressed in the future. Unfortunately, you may need to start a new save as a last resort. Alternatively, you can wait for the next update to see if it’s fixed.
In summary, if you find that your inventory skin pouch slot is full and you can’t open the pouches in Sons of the Forest, it’s likely a bug. Don’t let this issue hold you back from obtaining valuable items that can be game-changing. Try the fixes we’ve provided, such as building a shelf, restarting the game, or dropping things you have the maximum amount of. If all else fails, you may need to start a new save or wait for the next update to fix the issue. Remember to stay patient and persistent; you’ll be back to hunting cannibals and looting skin pouches in no time.
