[Trigger] Handling 2 arrays in one integer

[SkriK]

Hi, i'm trying to make a sort of inventory with multiple pages (yeah i know it's been done before, but i can only find it in JASS).

So my problem is:

I want to store the items carried in slot 1-5 which is simply

• For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Set Item[(Integer A)] = (Item-type of (Item carried by Unit <gen> in slot (Integer A)))

But with that, i can't distinguish which page i am on. Do i need to make a variable for each page? Like:

• Set ItemPage1[(Integer A)] = (Item-type of (Item carried by Unit <gen> in slot (Integer A)))

Use an integer variable to distinguish which page you are on, then set the items to whatever.

• go to next page
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Uses an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to NEXT PAGE
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Page Equal to 1
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Page = 2
        • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Set Item[(Integer A)] = (Item carried by Blood Mage 0000 <gen> in slot (Integer A))
            • Item - Move (Item carried by Blood Mage 0000 <gen> in slot (Integer A)) to (Center of Region 000 <gen>)
        • For each (Integer A) from 6 to 10, do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Hero - Give Item[(Integer A)] to Blood Mage 0000 <gen>
        • Skip remaining actions
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Page Equal to 2
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Page = 1
        • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Set Item[((Integer A) + 5)] = (Item carried by Blood Mage 0000 <gen> in slot (Integer A))
            • Item - Move (Item carried by Blood Mage 0000 <gen> in slot (Integer A)) to (Center of Region 000 <gen>)
        • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Hero - Give Item[(Integer A)] to Blood Mage 0000 <gen>
      • Else - Actions

Yes, you can distinguish which page you are on - First, store all your pages in the same array!

Slots 1-6 are page 1.

7-12 are page 2.

13-18 are page 3.

Etc.

(or 0-5,6-11,12-17 if you start from 0 index)

Formula: Inventory index + 6*(page-1)

Thus, the (the index - the modulus of the index by 6)/6 + is the page you are on, assuming you know what index you are looking from. (Or you could just find it via looping through the array, but that isn't the fastest - compare slot 0 to array slots 0,6,12,18,etc).

Or you could store the page in an integer, this way is more memory efficient but a little weirder.
