    TIP!: Right click to immediately select the item to trade instead of looking for it

    This frustrated me to no end since the beginning of 2.0, but I just discovered it. Dunno if anyone else was already aware... but I think it's worth a topic

    When trading currency for X item, usually you need to pick it out of the inventory... but if you right click or press SQUARE on your controller the item being asked for, you can pluck it right out of your inventory without looking for it (or going to if you knew where it was).



    Why this wasn't made immediately obvious I don't know, but I want 2 weeks of sub fees back from Yoshi

    Actually, why the interface doesn't just take your items like a shop takes gil I don't know... why is some things so backwards lol

    I don't know when I figured it out but hitting * on numpad and following with 0 on numpad does quick select/confirm.

    For key items it's less obnoxious as one will probably not have many key items in the inventory in the first place so one could spam confirm quickly (as I did) and hand it in without much of a slow down. But thanks, didn't know it works for key items too! lol

    Square button on the controller does the same thing. Extremely necessary for qol.

    Yeah, I knew it but surprisingly a lot of people don't since I still see some /say/shout mentioning an easier and faster way to turn in items.

    Yoshi stated this like back at the start of 2.0. He made it this way to give a sense of actually handing over items.

    Then further ruined by the fact I'm standing at max range from the NPC and then doing the hand over animation when the NPC is about 5 steps away from me and handing over something invisible lol XD

    I'm still more salty that I can be standing in front of an NPC but if my camera is wiggled away from them it says I'm too far away or can't see them.

    That garbage is the absolute worst, and it just baffles me every time it happens.

    The game uses the camera to determine target line of sight with regards to tab targeting, as for why it still does that check when interacting with something already targeted is beyond me though. I mean, the game already focuses the camera on the target 'when' you initiate a conversation with it also.
