Makes backpacks bigger in a balanced way
Josh Mate's Better Backpacks
Description
Makes Backpacks bigger while still staying in line with Vanilla gameplay balance based on price / rarity / weight
Changes
- All single grid backpacks have had their sizes increased by about 40%
- Boss bags (Birds eye radio / Sanitar) have been made significantly larger to fit their boss status
- Bags with multiple grids were increased by less to prevent UI grid overlap issues
- The field medic bag had its item restrictions removed
How to Configure this mod
- All backpacks come pre-edited to new bigger but balanced sizes. Just install and play
- You can edit the values in Mod.ts to your liking
- Increasing bag sizes too much can cause UI grid over lap issues
Installation
Move the mod's "user" folder into your SPT AKI folder that contains your user folder.
Special Thanks

**SPT Aki Version: 3.7.1
- The top biggest backpacks that weren't already have been made 6 slots wide (6xN) so that you don't have to scroll as much in the inventory UI but are still the same size.
- nerfed Sanitar's bag because It's exterior grid size is small (it's still much better than vanilla).
- Brought more backpacks in line with the linear progression of Size vs. Cost / rarity, improving balance.

(At the cost of some multi grid back packs not receiving as many additional slots as I would have liked)
- Fixed issue with overlapping grids.

- Fixed the Take down Multicam back pack being 1x1 (Now same size as the black variant)
- Reshaped some backpack grids to better match their external size (Same amount of slots still)
- I am aware of the grid overlaps and I am working to fix it asap!
(A temporary workaround would be to remove overlapping backpacks entries from the array in mod.ts)
