Latest release (for outdated Vintage Story v1.20.0 - v1.20.3):
tab_fix_1.1.0.zip
1-click install
When using the tab key for inventory, you normally can't open the inventory while the handbook or other menus are open. Pressing the tab key only changes the focus element of the currently open menu.
This mod disables the focus functionality, allowing you to open the inventory at any time.
Please let me know if you encounter any issues.

Sadly it doesn't work at all. TAB key - even if not visibly bound to anything else than being an inventory key - is still rotating through UI instead of closing/toggling the window.
God glibc just won't let me play this game.
The breakage is probably caused by `Updated Harmony to 2.3.5 which should fix issue when using Harmony mods on linux systems using GLIBC 2.41 and newer `
hello !! mod no longer seems to work as of 1.20.6; worked well up until i installed the update just a few minutes ago
thanks for this mod, TAB has always been the inventory so having menus constantly cycle through boxes instead was a gamebreaker
Hey RollForWizards,
I uploaded a new version where you no longer need to click into the chat window. However, I can't find any solution to your SMP problem. For me, it works when I join a self-hosted server (open to LAN and join), but it doesn't work when I join an official VintageStory server.
From my understanding, this is intentional by the developers so that you can't use mods for hacking and so on. See these statements:
"Does not support 3rd party mods, meaning mods not created by Anego Studios directly cannot be installed."
and
"Installation of 3rd party mods is currently not supported. We have no ETA yet for when this feature will become available."

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more info for me.
"works in single player ... it does not work in SMP ... So we got it to work after turning it off and on again repeatedly" - Sounds like a frustrating experience, I have to admit that I didn't think that it would make a difference in multiplayer compared to single player because this is just a client side mod, so I didn't test this case. But thanks alot for the information; I will do some research on why it´s behaving this way.
"...And now its disabling the ability to press T or / to chat while inventory is open..." - I think I can fix that. Again, thank you for your feedback.
I will need some time to get the new version ready.
So we got it to work after turning it off and on again repeatedly... And now its disabling the ability to press T or / to chat while inventory is open. We have to manually click in the window.
I'm not really sure how its working for Silhouette, because it isn't working still for me or my friend. I can see it in the mods list, its enabled, but it does nothing.
EDIT: On extensive testing, it always works in single player for me, no matter how many mods; however, even without any extra mods at all, it does not work in SMP.

Awesome, have fun!
The new version works great! and is visible. Thank you!
I'm sorry to hear that.
Could you please do me a favor and check if the new version of the mod is visible and active in the mod manager inside Vintage Story?
And if it is, could you please verify whether this problem still occurs while all other mods are deactivated?
Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks for update. Doesn't seem to be working here either.
Hey papierschnitt! I appreciate the update. It doesn't seem to be working at all, however. Neither one of us can make TAB stop cycling through the windows.
Hey RollForWizards!
The Mod should work for 1.20. Let me know if you find any bugs!
Would you be willing to make this work with 1.20? This problem is making the game unplayable for my friend, and without him, I have no one to play with.
Thank you the great modder, my muscle memory will never forget you.
Sorry for the deactivated search field, this bug should be fixed now.
Please let me know if you encounter any more issues.
Hey shlingleman,
thank you for reportig the bug. I'll take a look into fixing this!
I love the idea of this mod and it does seem to work at first glance, however with this mod active I can't search for stuff in the handbook anymore. My inputs just go right "through" it, even when highlighting the searchbox with a mouseclick. Like typing "A" just makes my character move. If that's fixed, the mod is perfect! Tested on 1.19.8
You're very welcome! I'm so glad this helped you!
Oh my GOD thank you so much for this, I always use Tab for inventory in every game and not being able to disable Tab focus was driving me crazy.
