Quick bars in the radial menu

Open the game's radial menu and select Hotbar. The Quick bars entry at the bottom opens your extra food, ammo and quick slots. The Back entry stays at the top.

• With food and ammo slots active, food is on the left and ammo is on the right. Up to six quick-slot items are centered below them. The first occupied quick slot is on the left. The remaining items follow slot order counterclockwise across the bottom to the right.
• With only food or only ammo active, that group is on the left. Up to six quick-slot items start on the right and continue clockwise. With only quick slots active, they use the same right-hand layout.
• Empty food and ammo positions remain in their groups. Empty quick slots do not appear. Group gaps cannot select or use an adjacent item.

Slot availability and progression determine which groups appear. The entry is absent when none of these slots are active. Hiding or disabling a HUD hotbar does not disable this radial page or remove its inventory slots. Item use and closing follow the game's Hotbar radial behavior.

Disabling regular equipment slots

In Extra slots, turn off Enable regular equipment slots to disable the six separate vanilla equipment cells (helmet, chest, legs, cape, utility and trinket). Equipped items move into the regular inventory without losing their equipped state when space is available. You can then equip armor and utility items directly from regular inventory, as in the base game. If the inventory is full, ExtraSlots preserves items in deferred storage until there is space; an item stored this way is temporarily unequipped. Extra utility slots and custom slots remain available according to their own settings. If no other ExtraSlots inventory cells are enabled, the extra panel is hidden.

Summary

This mod expands the player's inventory, not by just adding more rows but by creating extra slots specifically designated for certain types of items.

You are already familiar with equipment slots and quick slots. This mod also adds specific slots for food, ammo and miscellaneous items.

You can add up to 6 quick slots, 3 food slots, 3 ammo slots and up to 2 slots for misc items.

Quick slots and ammo slots will create a dedicated hotbars for quick use.

Miscellaneous items includes quest items, keys, fish, trophies and coins.

You can equip up to 5 utility items simultaneously.

You can add up to 5 extra rows in regular player inventory in case you really need large inventory.

Both equipment panel and hotbars are totally gamepad friendly.

Slots obtaining progression is enabled by default. It means not every slot could be available from the start. It requires obtaining certain items or killing bosses to get more slots.

There is public API to access some mod's functions and to dynamically add up to 9 custom equipment slots which can be enabled/disabled on the fly for it to be part of progression.

This mod is incompatible with other similar purpose mods which singular purpose is inventory management. Valheim Plus is supported yet inventory part is better be disabled. BetterArchery's quiver will be disabled. You will not lose your arrows.

If you had items in slots and then run the game without this mod installed the items will be lost. But you will be able to restore it from automatic backup. Remove incompatible mods, run the game with ExtraSlots installed and your items will be back.

Migration from EquipmentAndQuickSlots

If you just disable EaQS and load this mod you won't see a difference. Your items will be automatically moved into appropriate slots.

In some scenarios items will be moved into regular inventory but highly unlikely.

For backward migration you should clear all extra slots beforehand or you will lose the items.

Migration from AzuExtendedPlayerInventory

If you just disable AzuEPI and load this mod you could see some items moved into different slots.

Items from regular equipment slots will be automatically moved into appropriate slots.

Items from custom equipment slots added via API will be moved into most fitting slot or regular inventory if there are none.
