Inventory. There today, gone tomorrow.

[Barrett]

I know I've been posting a good bit, but I jumped into a blank template, and got too far in to go back and play with the demo. (Though I do keep it open in another window for ref.)

- I pickup my "grass." I open up my inventory. Hey look! Grass! I close my inventory. I open it again...no grass. Who took my grass?

Check:
Closing Inventory Script
Repeatedly Executing Scripts
Open Inventory Script.


There could be a number of different possible things wrong.  I can't really think of any more advice to give other than just check all your scripts.  =/.

Check --everything-- that could happen?   Though it sounds like you did it already. =/.

I'll post my code. Maybe someone has had this trouble. I'm trying to wade through all the inventory problems, so I've made two rooms, each with one item that can be added to inventory. Torg can get grass from his bed, and go to room two and get a stick.

GLOBAL:

// main global script file

// called when the game starts, before the first room is loaded
function game_start() {}


// put anything you want to happen every game cycle in here
function repeatedly_execute()
{
}

function show_inventory_window ()
{
  gtorginvwindow.Visible = true;
  // switch to the Use cursor (to select items with)
  mouse.Mode = eModeInteract;
  // But, override the appearance to look like the arrow
  mouse.UseModeGraphic(eModePointer);
}

function hide_inventory_window() {
  gtorginvwindow.Visible = false;
  invwindowtorg.Visible = false;
}


//If the toolbar is visible, change the mouse to a pointer


// called when a key is pressed. keycode holds the key's ASCII code
function on_key_press(eKeyCode keycode)
{
  if (IsGamePaused()) keycode = 0; // game paused, so don't react to keypresses
 
  if (keycode == eKeyCtrlQ) QuitGame(1); // Ctrl-Q
  if (keycode == eKeyF9) RestartGame(); // F9
  if (keycode == eKeyF12) SaveScreenShot("scrnshot.pcx");  // F12
  if (keycode == eKeyCtrlS) Debug(0,0); // Ctrl-S, give all inventory
  if (keycode == eKeyCtrlV) Debug(1,0); // Ctrl-V, version
  if (keycode == eKeyCtrlA) Debug(2,0); // Ctrl-A, show walkable areas
  if (keycode == eKeyCtrlX) Debug(3,0); // Ctrl-X, teleport to room
}

{

  {
  }
  else if (button == eMouseLeft)
  {
    ProcessClick(mouse.x,mouse.y, mouse.Mode);
  }
  else // right-click, so cycle cursor
  {   
    mouse.SelectNextMode();
  }

I'd also note that I can :

A) Pick up grass, open inv, see grass, close inv, open inv, no grass...

B) Pick up grass, go to room 2, pick up stick, open inv, see stick and grass, close inv, open inv, no grass or stick

C) Go directly to room 2, pick up inv, see stick, close inv, open inv, no stick...

D) If I get the grass, open my inv, close my inv, go to room 2, and get the stick...when I open my inv, not only will the grass not be there, but the stick will not either.

[Barrett]

Fixed it.

Deleted the line,

invwindowtorg.Visible = false;

I'll have a drink now.
