OoT Inventory: Diagonal Inputs explained

Pressing left, right, or diagonal inputs on the OoT inventory screen are a bit unintuitive, so here is an explanation of how they work.


Pressing right:
-if there is another item in the current row to the right, select the nearest one.
-if not, check the row below for an item to the right of the current column, and select the nearest one.
-if there was not one found in that row, keep trying the rows below. after the bottom row, go to the top row, then the row below that, etc.
-if no item is found still, select the R icon on the side of the menu.

For example, if the cursor is on Bombchus, pressing right/left will attempt to select a slot with the following priority, where 1 is the first selected:

Pressing up or down:
-select the closest item in the current column, if there is one
-if not, do nothing


Diagonals:

-process the horizontal input then the vertical input

For example: if you have Bombchus selected and press down-right with this inventory layout, it will select the Odd Potion:
