Yes!
But also, now that I think about it a little more I think that it is also a problem with the interface:
having the button to the inventory in that menu, and not even as the first item, is kind of strange. Of the options in that menu I would guesstimate that I would use it to open the inventory 99,5% percent of the times I entered the menu.
Imho the inventory should be opened by a button in the HUD, probably by an additional square with an icon in the bottom inventory row.

Not sure… It seems that the correct^1^ word is used, but I don’t think I have ever played a game with an inventory in my native language (which luanti picked up from the system default language) so I just didn’t think of clicking that button.
1: correct, as in used in other games for the translation of “inventory”

Thank you!
Was going crazy…
For some reason the word used by my languages translation just didn’t make me think of in-game inventory but rather of app+mods-storage on my device.
Should probably think about that for a bit!

Hello, what a fun initiative!
Unfortunately I couldn’t get it to work on mobile (android) because I couldn’t figure out how to open my inventory (= no crafting, etc)…
I’ll keep looking and if I find a solution I’ll post it here.

Well, I’m sure these grey haired people would be more than happy to hike with you and introduce you (more or less subtly) to the people they have in their life of your approximate age and gender-preference.
As they are older (and not just more stressed) they are still used to help people meet “organically”.

Thanks, this looks promising, I’ll investigate.
But also thanks for giving me the word “delayed” to use in my searches. Sometimes it’s hard to remember good synonyms.
- Comment on LFS: Send emails later, time capsule style 9 months ago:
Thanks, but not really as the “time capsule” feature would be lost since the email would be sitting in my future-/scheduled-folder.
But in the end that might be what I end up doing if I can’t find a suitable service.

- Comment on I would maybe like a smart watch, can you help me decide? 1 year ago:
I think there are a few of those, but as with everything targeted to scared relatives/caretakers it is quite expensive and hard to tell how it will age.

Nope, that is a good point.
I think I wrote my original message in a slightly distressed state after a quite bad event where she needed to get in contact with anybody and couldn’t.
After some thinking and time away from that scary incident it is quite clear that this mostly is a XY situation (as someone thought) and just getting her a bracelet for her alarm is probably as big a technological fix there can be.

Thanks, this looks like a superfun little gadget.
Unfortunately it lacks any kind of sound output[1] so it doesn’t cut it for my intended use.

Thank you, it is evident that I’m having trouble to define my needs and wants in this domain. I’m learning a lot.
Your idea is rather opposite of what I’m looking for and I apologize for not being clear enough.
It is my understanding that many of these devices are health focused but I’m not looking health stuff unless it can be relayed to and used by her professional caregivers.
I’m looking for a wearable basic phone to receive and make calls.
- Comment on I would maybe like a smart watch, can you help me decide? 1 year ago:
Thanks!
Yes, for sure, it’s a little bit of both.
I will try to configure DND mode for her, but I’m not sure it will be enough, but it is worth a try.
The other problem about carrying it around is more difficult. She doesn’t manage to carry her alarm around using a lanyard (it will be changed to a bracelet, this change is what triggered the idea to get her a wrist-phone too), so I can’t imagine she will carry around her phone either. Maybe with a nice bag? Worth looking into.
Anyway, thanks for the DND suggestion, I will start with that.
