Relocating a multitool

Multitools can be directly relocated to another magazine location within magazines, which
means that you do not have to unload multitools with the tools in question from the magazine
in order to relocate them to a different location.
When you are relocating a multitool, the system automatically recommends an empty location.
You may also directly specify an empty magazine location.
