Inventory

The Inventory is an ingame tool in Creatures 3 and Docking Station designed to hold various agents that you may want to keep nearby for easy access. It consists of the third panel down on the right side of the C3 and DS interface, just below the options panel. In C3 standalone, it is often autokilled. The C3 Spaceship Repair Tool can help with this in standalone worlds. In docked worlds, this is taken care of by the autorecovery.cos file.

Norns and other Creatures can not be placed directly inside the Inventory by the Hand, but pressing Ctrl and the left or right keyboard arrows will put the Creature into the Inventory and rotate the next agent into the Hand. Note, though, that placing too many Creatures into the Inventory may cause deletion of said Creatures...

Aquashee's CAOS Chaos has a tutorial on using CAOS to inject agents directly into the inventory when they are injected into the world. This technique can also be seen in the teardown of the Substitute Doll.
