Have you edited item_options? If not, send the .gmk.

Hmm this is very nice coded indeed.I've done almost the same inventory but still trying to figure out how to make items stack

Loop through all items in the inventory until you find the same item as you're trying to add, and if successful, you just increase a counter on that item. Then when using/dropping a stacked item, you just decrease the counter.


@Davve
Pretty good example. A lot of people should find use in this, though I doubt 'newcomers' will find it very helpful as it's quite advanced.

No I haven't edited any of the code I've sent the .gmk to your msn

This Inventory Code is great! I am using it in my Adventure RPG that I am converting to GML from some older code I have been compiling for a while. Right now I'm trying to implement it within my game environment, but I'm experiencing a couple of snags..... I have been messing around with the box sizes to accommodate a pause/inventory screen; however, I don't know if through this I have disabled the mouse "hover over" function- and the descriptions/options don't seem to be working either. I have also replaced some of the sItems with my own, and subsequently their descriptions, but I do not believe this to be the cause. Any suggestions/direction? Thanks.

You never sent the .gmk...

[Katipo Games]

You never sent the .gmk...

I sent it to your msn. oh well where can i upload a file?

*edit*
is it tested in 8.1?
and how easy is it to save into a .ini?

P.S in the exe it worked fine: the option box worked, the HP was above the player
but in GM (8.1) none of that worked

Well, GM8.1 changed the way arguments work, which is the main reason I never upgraded there from GM8.0 and could possibly be the cause of the problem. Since I don't have 8.1, I won't be able to help you.

Davve, this inventory engine is great! I've been working on modifying it to my own needs and I'm doing so with good results. I do have a question- In the inventory you use sprite sub-images to represent "things" in your gaming environment. I'm sure by assigning those images a variable they can represent objects . I was wondering if there was a way to create images with animation somehow in the stead of still sub-images. Almost to say- "Can a sub-image have sub-images?" Thanks again for any input.

Davve, in my game, I want to make it so the amount of arrows in the inventory goes down as they are fired? How would I go about doing this with this engine? I've accomplished a bunch of problems that I had with this inventory, but this I need help with. I know this is an old thread, but please reply.

In the item_options_code script:

global.inv_item[global.inv_optionitemno, 1] -= 1

Can I use this in the left click event of the character? If so, how?

Cheers!
