Hi there. Dear ANET plz fix this annoying bug with kits swap while jumping.
Why i can’t swap kits to weapon in jump ?? But i can swap it with using this button again (toggling kits on/off).
I think this is not hard to fix.

Yea using Speedy Kits I’m constantly swapping while running/roaming. Every time I get a “cannot drop bundle in mid-air” I get annoyed.

I’ve actually taken to double tapping the Kit’s hotkey because of this limitation ever since I stopped running Med kit.
The reason it is there is because the game doesn’t handle Bundles or Environmental weapons too well with respect to terrain. Kits are treated as Bundles.
If you’ve ever dropped a Boulder or something similar off a cliff you’ll see what I mean, and why the limitation is there. It sucks, but it’ll likely stay with us as long as our Kits are coded in the game as Bundles.

If I recall, this “Fix” was put in cause people would swap kits in mid-air to avoid using a kit’s “Kit Refinement” they didn’t want.

But swapping back “to weapon” and not “to kit” would be great in mid-air, considering I see it often enough but not enough to annoy me.
