I suppose this could be useful, even though it's fairly simple.

Why not make it MUI using hashtables?
You are using set variables to create a backpack, use hashtables to store values over a longer time using:

If/Then/Else
- If
  - BackPackTrue Equal to True
- Then
  - Load key(String(BackPackSlot1)) of key(Triggering Unit)
- Else
  - Set MUI = (MUI + 1)
  - Set Backpack_Slot[MUI] = (Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 1))
  - Save (Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 1)) as Key(string(BackPackSlot1)) of Key(Triggering Unit)

And then create a system to make the MUI get to 0 from time to time.

Read my updated post.
It is pretty simple and will help you in your map aswell if you decide to at some points use a backpack unit to carry a hero's items.

One more thing, Set the boolean to true aswell if it is false, and remember to set it as an array
Also, I could make the whole spell as an example if you want me to.

hmmm that could be useful...
can you do it pls?

because from viewing pasted data and etc i don't understand that much..

Laserdude · Oct 30, 2010

EDIT: Nevermind, it will work, it will just take some time. Be patient!

ok maybe it will be better if i try to make this by myself

i have a question...
BackpackTrue [Index] Equal to True
what should i insert in the index?

EDIT:
Also where can i find the Load Key action?
(yeah i really suck at MUI sry

)

I m done with making it MUI and the indexing nor MUI system was needed, except I did not find a proper way to store the item types (since save itempool handle was bugged, sadly) so I had to use the move function instead.
Here is the spell!
Have a look at it, and say what you think
View attachment Bag System MUI.w3x
Enjoy!
And a little credits if you use something rather like my system as a thanks for the help would be nice.
EDIT 2: Sorry!! It actually did work

EDIT: it will not work properly at the moment, but if you add a MUI system it will work. I will fix it now, but have a look at my current progress meanwhile.

thnx man !! i really appreciate all your help +rep again :thumbs_up:

can you pls post here a MUI tutorial?

Laserdude · Oct 30, 2010

Sorry, as I said, I was wrong, the system DOES work, no bugs! no mui needed!
EDIT: mui tutorial? Just try to compare my trigger to yours (which is still in my version of it) and try to figure out how to do it, since a whle tutorial for it would be quite hard to explain and would take quite some time.

Adiktuz · Oct 31, 2010

MUI tutorial? search at the tutorials section for a MUI and hashtable tutorial... ^_^

GangSpear · Oct 31, 2010

Nice one.
Similar to mine, but I can really see the differences with the hide item action, never thought of that.
I did not use loop actions, that was a huge miss.

And agreed, use the forums or tutorial section to find a tutorial.

The bagpack still bugs.
The Open Ability does not always work.

EDIT:
Still not working, theres no delay.

This spell, is pretty useless...
Its just like having 2 inventories with only 1 set of inventories' stats.

Yp it's just like any other backpack system...
It just provides an extra inventory...

that's because it's a pain in the ass to emulate stats in wc3 properly
I made a system in GUI for it which required 100 custom abilities (with JNGP you can automate this task so it's a lot easier but still takes a lot of effort....most time it's not worth it)

Vlad727 · Jan 16, 2011

Nice Idea
Works well, but when I drop an item and switch backpack twice, the item I just dropped is in my backpack again. (-_-)
But Hey I can still use it as a second-gear-like-function-thingy (^_^)
Or U could fix it.
nevertheless +rep and for now 4.5/5 rating

thnx for bug report :thumbs_up:

ill try to come up with a solution asap...

Vlad727 · Jan 18, 2011

Btw is this compatible with item restriction systems? (only 1 weapon + 1 offhand, etc.).
hope that it is fixed soon, I'm going to use this awesome system for sure (^_^)

D4RK_G4ND4LF · Jan 18, 2011

that's because you can't save "no item" in hashtables
just create a dummy item which does nothing and save it instead of "no item"
if the loaded item would be that item do nothing

keep in mind that this is just one of hundrets of possible solutions

actually I wanted to post this yesterday but just in the second I clicked on "post" my internet connection failed

Nightbrowler · Jan 27, 2011

I wonder why nobody saw the big mistake in this trigger..?!..

If you add an item to slot 1 and then drop it change backpack add it again you have 2 items !.. so you can create more items yourself Oo..

Item creating backpack..?
However, I never noticed that.
But it might be useful, but, then again, you can do a trigger that creates items in less then a minute, so, I think this bug needs fixing.

excellent choice of a item system, nice work dude! I might use this for my map project :grin:

Anyone have an idea how that can be done? As it really bugs the whole idea of the system ..

Problem

There is a problem when I copy everything just like I have to when I get an item and open backpack the item appears on the center of the map :s Can you help me with this issue please.

Are you sure? Items are moved at the center of map BUT

Set Backpack_SavePoint = (Point(0.00, 0.00))

they are always hidden, im not sure what the problem is sorry=/

Item - Hide (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot i)

Did you copy all of the 3 triggers in your map? Did you modify anything?

Is it possible to fix the bug when

item in backpack -> close backpack -> open backpack -> throw away item -> close backpack -> open backpack and then suddenly the item is teleported from the ground to my backpack ? :eekani:

Because if not then this is pretty much useless I think.

Thank you! That is indeed a bug.
You can look for an other one. There are some more inventory systems on hive.
Here the handles are not removed from table properly.

yup he not clear the parent key

BurnInHell · Apr 7, 2015

So does anyone know how to deal with that bug? Because I like this backpack system and I would like to use it.

SadOnix · Apr 1, 2024

The test Map posted by D4RK_G4ND4LF is exactly what i needed:
No JASS, Working and most important MUI viable. tested with 2 Players without annoying Item Trades which arent intended.
