I've asked this before, but didn't receive any that good answer. So, how do you tell the game how many items per inventory row are displayed? I can't find it anywhere. From the manual, I found some instructions and scripts, but I cannot find the place in global script where to place them.

So, can someone give me step-to-step instructions HOW to change, how many items inventory displays on one row?

thx very much!

I downloaded some templates for ags from http://www.freewebs.com/skimbleshanks/ resource page. The files that should contain new inventory, GUI, dialog style and stuff, are .AGT files. How can i use them with ags?

thx alot!

Ok. I have "tape" in my inventory. I want to use it to "window" to make something happen. From the interaction menu I found option 'Use inventory on object'. But when using this, I can not determin which inventory item must be used. So now I can use ALL inventory items on "window" and the same thing will happen!

So how can I make that the "tape" is an only object which can be used to "window" to make something happen?

HELP!

thx!

Yeah thx for that, but there must be a script somewhere which to edit. There are numerous other option how to manage inventory, but they all require to find that script... Now I need to know how to manage how many items there are per row. 

How can I change the sizes of slots for the inventory items?

Example:

invMain.ItemWidth = 50;
invMain.ItemHeight = 30

I found that from the manual, but I was unable to find anything like that from any script files. So where can I change the slot sizes?

thx!

Ok I have item in inventory, and ingame when I look at the item, it takes player into another room. Now the inventory stays open even the room changes. How can I change that? Can I make the inventory go shut when changing to another room? Is there any simple script that should do it?

thx alot!

Ok what is this holy manual that everyone here refers to? And where the heck am i finding it?

thx

How can i create lucasarts style conversations? For example like when player selects the RIGHT dialog opinion, something will happen (adds item to inventory, changes room, game ends...). Do i need to get scripting or can it be done more simple ways?

thx!

yeah ok i got that thx! now the interaction thing works perfectly! but now we got another little problem: Now the pointer arrow (to select items) looks like a hand(interaction)!

ok I put that script you suggested, but the cursor still looks like Talk-to cursor! I have Set the cursor mode to 3. Is that ok? or what am i supposed to do on that "left click" action?

Hey

I cannot get my dialog working. Below is simple test dialog, but i cannot get it work. What's wrong? It's exactly as the tutorials and manual prefers but when i try to save the script in AGS is says:

"There was an error compiling the script for dialog topic 1.
The error was:
Dialog (line 4): Unknown character: 'man'


What am I doing wrong :o?


// dialog script file
@S // dialog startup entry point
ego: Hey
Man: Zzzzzz
return

@1 // Leave the man be.
Leave the man be.
stop

How can i change items width and height? There's no such option in the GUI. And what is UseModeGraphic? Sorry but i don't understand right now!

1. Ok, I got my inventory working, and items really appear there like they should, but they appear too close to each others. How can I manage, where in the inventory window the items are shown and their positions?

2. I got my interaction in inventory working (thx to you!) but now when I interact, the cursors changes into talking cursor (looks kinda dum..). And when I try to change the cursor to interact (hand) by changing Set Cursor Mode the interaction won't work anymore!

thx!

Yeah i know there's at least one another post from this very same subject, but i was unable to get my inventory interactions working.

So can someone who knows what to do, give me step by step instructions how can i make a working INTERACT button to my inventory!

thx alot! AGS's great!
