When inventory is full in Raft, it is possible for players to discard the unwanted items. This can be done by either pressing Q or dragging the item away from the inventory using the cursor. However, instead of throwing items away, it’s better if players first consider getting storage to keep their excess items.
But if the inventory is filled while traveling outside the raft, people won’t have any choice but to sort out which item they want more than the other. This can be really frustrating as sometimes this means rafters have to throw away useful items. To avoid being forced into this, Raft players can craft a Backpack instead.
How To Increase Inventory Size In Raft
To increase inventory size in Raft, players must equip a Backpack on their character. Only one Backpack will take effect, so make sure to not make more than required. This is especially important as, unlike some equipable items in Raft, Backpacks will not decay or break.
So far, there are two types of Backpacks available:
- Backpack: Adds 10 extra inventory slots
- Big Backpack: Adds 15 extra inventory slots
How To Make A Backpack In Raft
To make a normal Backpack in Raft, people need to learn it at the Research Table first. For this, they’ll need:
- Leather
- Rope
- Wool
After researching the item, a Backpack will now show in the crafting menu. To create one bag, rafters require:
- Leather x4
- Rope x4
- Wool x6
Meanwhile, a Big Backpack will not be available until players find its blueprint at the Utopia. This place is the final location in the third chapter, so it’ll take a very long time until people can access it. If rafters haven’t started their story mode yet, they can do so by reaching the Radio Tower in Raft.
Of course, as it’s a better version of the regular Backpack, people have to prepare more resources to make one:
- Leather x10
- Rope x4
- Wool x10
Where To Find Backpack Materials In Raft
To get Leather, Rope, and Wool, here’s what players need to do:
- Leather: Harvested by killing:
- Warthog: Available in Tropical Biomes
- Mama Bear: Available on Balboa Island
- Bear: Available in Evergreen Biomes
- Mudhog: Available in Desert Biomes
- Hyena: Available in Utopia
- Rope: Crafted from Palm Leaf
- Wool: Sheared from a tamed Llama
Getting Wool is the most tiresome process, unlike the rest of the items. Luckily, Llama’s Wool is a sustainable resource, so unlike Leather farming, players won’t have to repeat the process over and over again. To tame an animal in Raft, follow these steps:
- Create a cage for the animal. It should consist of fences and some Grass Plots
- Get a Net Launcher and Net Canister
- Find a Llama on a big island
- Catch the Llama and bring it back to the raft
- Make sure it always has grass to feed on, and use Shears to harvest its Wool
Raft is available on PC.
