Back pack

The back pack is a miscellaneous item in Fallout and Fallout Tactics.

Fallout
It can be used to organize the Vault Dweller's inventory. A backpack can contain any items that total less than about 40 lbs, but cannot contain larger items like armor.

To use the backpack, right-click to get the command cursor, then left-click and hold on the backpack. Move down to the open hand icon and release to open the backpack. The player will know the backpack is open because its icon replaces its own. Drag items from either hand into the backpack, then click the icon (where your character usually is) to return to the normal inventory.

Alternately, simply drag the item over the back pack; or if in the backpack, drag the item to the icon (where the character usually is) to move it back to the main inventory.

Locations

 * One in Darkwaters in the back room on a shelf.
 * One in the Hall of the Dead in Necropolis, in the desk in a room to the west when using the main entrance.
 * One in Jon Zimmerman's basement in Adytum.

Fallout Tactics
A single back pack can be found in the inventory of Strom during the training missions. Wearing the backpack as an armor increases the Carry Weight for 60 lbs.

Bugs
In Fallout, if a container is placed inside of the backpack, such as a sack or another bag, the items within may disappear.
