Why does it say backpack full when I have a whole row of free slots in main pack?

It's to ensure that extra slots remain in your pack in case you don't immediately mule.

Yes... The free 6 packslots are intended use, because actually filling up your pack is usually a bad thing and allows you to have free spots to make it easier for you to sell or whatever you need to do.

not only that, you are able to change between weapons and wand during combat....iwth no pack spaces, you would never be able to pull out your wand to restam, or whatnot...

Shouldn't you let the user decide how many free slots they need?

Not easily. Considering that the main pack has 102 slots, six slots is a fair number to ask. If one wants more pack space they can get a pack augmentation or carry less stuff.

Seems pretty easy to me. My opinion, you only report a pack is full when it is actually full, not when someone else decides you have placed enough items in there. "Fair number" is relative. Write to handle things in your app if the backpack is actually full.

As a coder, you should no doubt be aware that sometimes, the way previous developer(s) added things makes it hard to change. This is one of those cases.
It's not worth the work involved for something that less than three people have spoken up about.

Well I told a couple of macroers here at work because I heard them complain about full pack issues that didn't make any sense with Life Tank, so make that 5 people that have spoken up about it.
I love the challenge of fixing things that were done crewy. Often times it is some of my old code.
