Latest file for v1.20.1:
tab_fix_1.0.2.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.

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!

💬 RollForWizards, 5 days ago

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.
