Moving Items in Inventory

[asdfADRiAN]

Currently I have a system that needs items to be moved around in the inventory.
If a unit uses an item in an inventory it will automatically be moved to the Unit's Slot 1 inventory.
If the unit uses an item and already has an item in the Slot 1 inventory, the item being used will switch places with the Slot 1 item.

Example:
So if I have a gun in Slot 2 and I click on it to equip it, it will automatically be moved to Slot 1. If I have a knife in Slot 1 but I want to equip an Axe in Slot 4. The Axe will be moved to Slot 1 and the Knife will be moved to Slot 4.

issue order to unit
Unit - move item to item slot (it is same as when you do it manually)

But how would I do it so that it will move the item to the next available item slot?
For example if 2 is not empty, then it will check slot , then 4 and so on.

Itd be helpful if you post the triggers for each case I mentioned in the first post. It would be easier for me to implement and modify it to my needs.

Anyways I already know the trigger, I just dont know how to check in a loop whether a inventory slot is empty, and if its occupied the loop will check the next slot.

• Item - Move (Last created item) to (Center of (Playable map area))
• [/trigger

Note: Sorry for double posting but theres been several changes to the trigger thatll need a bump since Ive discussed with several different people.

Well, I got it working now with the below trigger however when I use an item in Slot 1 and theres an Item in Slot 2, the item in Slot 2 is kicked into Slot 3 and Slot 3 is kicked into slot 4 and so on.

Can anyone explain why?

EDIT: To describe the behavior of the items, they "jump" around when using items that are adjacent to one another.

to set to nearest slot just drop the item and give it a gain (try just giveing it too)
Hero - drop item
Hero - give item

and use (Triggering Unit) for everything taht you can,also use (Triggering Player) because it is same as (Onwer of(Unit(Triggerng Unit)))
