Inventory
The Inventory is where the player stores items such as weapons, tools, items, blocks, and consumables that they have gathered. The inventory window has five inventory bags, or tabs, totaling 200 slots. Picked up items and objects automatically go into their appropriate bag. Once full, the player can no longer pick up items. The Inventory screen's hotkey is assigned to "I" by default.
The Inventory screen is also where the player equips Armor, Costumes, and Protection Packs. The four slots marked with their respective items' icons are functional, while the four slots marked with eye symbols are cosmetic. The player can equip any clothing item in either the functional or cosmetic slots. The cosmetic slot item always overwrites the look of the functional armor slot, but none of their actual stats or bonuses apply. If the cosmetic slot is empty, the armor in the functional slots will appear on the character.
The player can equip three Techs, all variants of Sphere, Dash, and Jump. Techs can be unlocked and equipped at the Tech Lab in the Outpost.
There is also one Pet slot, which shows all pet stats.
The stats listing to the right of the armor window shows the player's attack multiplier, maximum health, maximum energy, and defense.
The bottom left shows the player's pixel count. Ancient Essence will also be displayed after the player first collects it.

Send to Trash
There is also a slot labeled Send to Trash. All items put into this slot will be completely deleted after a grace period of one second. Be mindful of what is placed here, as items can never be retrieved after they're deleted.
Essential items cannot be removed from the inventory. This includes the Matter Manipulator and its upgraded functions (Scan Mode, Paint Mode, and Wire Mode)..
Auto-Sort
At the very bottom right of the inventory window there's a button to sort all objects in all tabs within the window. After pressing this, items will auto-stack together, sorting to fill in all gaps in slots and pushing to the top-left corner of their respective bags.
