Running naked for tombstone retrieval

(if your carrying nothing,because you just died) can auto-pickup be disabled during this time? If you accidentally picked up an item while running, the context menu adds time to a panic situation and all i want to do is pickup my items and run away with them.
Same thing goes with a co-op player throws a spear and I auto pickup his spear, now I have to find it in my inventory to return it (during a fight).
yea, I can toggle auto-pickup but if I am carrying nothing, it should be automatically disabled until I pickup an item, then re-enable. it's annoying. also is returning a thrown spear to whoever threw it. What, I'm supposed to remember to disable auto pickup during every fight so as to not accidentally pickup my co-op players spear?
thanks in advance!

It is most definitely a bug. There is no such thing as auto-pickup in real life. One must decide to pick up everything. Auto-pickup has no place in the game and should be removed entirely.

My point, it should key on the fact that I am carrying nothing and should be disabled until I make it a point to pick something up when it should automatically enable itself. and the spear thing is exponentially more annoying.

For empty inventory / corpse run, its a button press either way. Whether you press to enable or disable is no difference.

I personally find it more annoying to have to turn it on considering most corpse runs are quick sprint by while the thing that killed me is still coming for me affairs.


On the spears 100% I agree. Similar issue in 7days to die but they solved it by tying thrown spears to player ID... don't see why that's not an option here.

the spear thing sounds interesting. Maybe you can stand opposite each other and throw it back and forth at the guy in the middle, a dangerous variation of 'keep away'?
