Way to detect when an inventory is full?

[aussj5link]

Is there a way to detect when an inventory is full when picking up items and instead have a different unit with an inventory pick it up? I have a rough backpack system right now and I'd like items to automatically go to a different unit when the primary inventory is full. Thanks for any help!

As for the detecting whether the unit has full inventory, this might help: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/.../how-check-if-hero-has-full-inventory-120270/

For giving it to different unit, I'm not sure though.

Thanks! I think that might be all I need.

Problem with full inventories is you need to order the unit to keep moving to the clicked item while removing the error message or used a tome-based item system.

Damn, I thought this would work but I guess "Acquire" is looking for something different than a simple command to pickup and item lol.

Might just end up having to deal with opening the backpack every time you wanna store extra stuff. That's ok, thanks for the help!

That's messy, what's wrong with the new method I found? Also looks like your doing it a bit incorrectly as well.

Well, setting every individual item to a power up and then setting a trigger for how each item acts when picked up just seems like a grip of work and triggers all to make picking up items slightly more convenient lol

Yeah, it's messy, but it's the best I can do with my current knowledge of triggers.

As it is currently, all I have to do is summon the back pack and put stuff into it. My current system doesn't get real trigger and variable heavy which allows it to work with the stacking system and the equipment systems in place.

 

[Arhowk]

acquire is when a unit picks up an item. if you want ordered to pick up an item, you have to use unit is issued an order targeting an item (exists? maybe)

I don't understand, how do you deal with this system when one of the slots are filled? It won't work anymore. Also what happens when that unit has all 6 items, you kind of get an error message popping up on you and it also stops your unit/hero from receiving the item therefore the trigger won't fire because there was no event since no item was "Acquired".

Edit: Howk you too fast... stop stealing! He's mine =(

i have nothing to do for 6 hours you're fked. also considering i have exp in this (my per-player item drop syste which i forgot to throw on the lab)

As far as I can tell the conditions require all slots to be full, not just one. Yeah, like I said, I was hoping the Acquire event was simply looking for pickup command. It's all good, I don't mind the way the item system is, currently. Now I just need help with returning the bags to their holding area lol. I posted that question in Triggers & Scripts.

Uh huh..... WELL GUESS WHAT! I has win.

A few minutes > your 6 hours...

For the win/(GUI)

I spent a while figuring out creative names for the heroes, lots of work and thinking and effort went into this system. Hope you enjoy it aussj5link. Let me know if you encounter any problems and/or issues. Don't give up, work together with variables to becoming closer to being one of the best.

I gave you the map itself with the triggers so you can copy it easily however I shall also post it here.

i never said i would code something for him, as thats counter to what i believe in. he wont learn that way.

 

[aussj5link]

Thank you both for your help. I'll check out the system in a bit. For now I gotta get some sleep.

 

[Tal'Rarity]

Even if it counters whatever you believe in teaching/learning... It doesn't change the fact that this is a method of so. Showing,saying,listening,doing it yourself. I think that's it. I do showing best and I want to help people get to where they want to be faster and best possible way but still retain what they learnt.

Yeah true, though you did however sound like you might have been trying something.... Still thanks for participating in this thread howk. =)

Dat-C3, the first loop could be like this to avoid unnecessary loops.

For each (Integer pwettyloop) from 1 to 6, do (Actions) Loop - Actions If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions) If - Conditions (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot pwettyloop) Equal to No item Then - Actions Skip remaining actions Else - Actions Set pweettycounter = (pweettycounter + 1)

 

[Dr Super Good]

I would imagine the process is pretty simple, something like this...

function UnitInventoryIsFull takes unit u returns boolean
    return UnitItemInSlot(u, 0) != null and UnitItemInSlot(u, 1) != null and UnitItemInSlot(u, 2) != null and UnitItemInSlot(u, 3) != null and UnitItemInSlot(u, 4) != null and UnitItemInSlot(u, 5) != null
endfunction

This is probably the best way to do it for 6 slot units as any form of loop adds additional overhead due to a lack of optimizing compiler.

For a dynamic number of slots you could do this...

function UnitInventoryIsFull takes unit u returns boolean
    local integer i = UnitInventorySize(u)
    loop
        exitwhen i <= 0
        set i = i - 1
        if UnitItemInSlot(u, i) == null then
            return false
        endif
    endloop
    return true
endfunction

In this case the loop overhead might be justified by avoiding having to test slots the unit does not have.

That wouldn't work though because what if item slot 1 had an item while others didn't? It'd just stop the entire trigger wouldn't it?

Good idea DSG, will see what I can do about applying that. I made this system as easy as possible for the one who wanted help with this. I will be improving it hoping he learns more about what he wants.

If an empty slot is found, the execution of the trigger (function) is aborted.

 

[Dr Super Good]

If an empty slot is found, the execution of the trigger (function) is aborted.

Except it will always abort if a unit only has 5 inventory slots or less even if they are all full. So the same limitation as my first implementation applies.

 

[Tal'Rarity]

Oh I am an idiot as usual, thanks Maker and DSG. I get it now, what Maker said that is. I already was working on making what DSG said last night. Instead of 1 to 6 it'll be 1 to size of inventory.
