When there's a lot of equipment to sort through the equipment screen is clunky as hell. You can only scroll through available equipment in one direction and removing equipment from a soldier requires you to find an open spot. This causes many more mouse clicks than necessary.

I suggest an extra button to back scroll through the equipment list and a button you can drop equipment on that will automatically remove it from your soldier.

It's likely fine as is for vanilla but when the mods start dropping lots of equipment on you it gets tiresome.

Great work on this project btw - I have sunk many sick days into it now

Right-mouse-button click on the same button.

2/ and a button you can drop equipment on that will automatically remove it from your soldier.

Ctrl+click on the item you want to drop.

Thanks.

Should have mentioned I'm an android user. We miss out on a lot of the extra hotkey functions in menu screens.

Cheers.

1/ I suggest an extra button to back scroll through the equipment list

Click on the left half on the button scrolls left, click on the right half scrolls right.

Needs `oxceInventorySplitScrollButton: true` in options.cfg (is already default on Android).

2/ and a button you can drop equipment on that will automatically remove it from your soldier.

Pick up an item and drop it on the paperdoll (assuming paperdoll does not overlap with modded inventory slots).

Needs `oxceInventoryDropItemOverPaperdoll: true` in options.cfg (is already default on Android).
