Title: SUGGESTION: Character/inv item removing
Post by: JudgeDeadd on Mon 31/05/2004 15:03:04
You should be able to remove characters and inv items. It's a real shame this option isn't available.

The characters and inv items dont really take up much space in themselves, and you can always re-cycle them. It's a bit untidy not being able to remove them, but I'm sure CJ already has this on his "low priority" list...

You remove an inv item, you test your game... OOPS! your game had AddInventory(blah), but that inventory item does not exist anymore "What's wrong with this..??!?" and so on... :P Old subject, hard to implement in a practical manner AFAIK.

The problem was these items are numbered, if you can delete one, it's possible that the numbers of the remaining items got shifted down, which may cause hard to fix bugs in your games.

Erhm... Yes, exactly what I was trying to say. The last item in the list can particullary cause problems in that way...

Possible solution:

- After deleting one item, the numbers of other items don't change.
OPTION: You can set their numbers manually.
