S-Inventory: Equipment, Crafting, Skill Bar, Item Groups, Containers & Merchant (C# & JS)

Hi following the documentation there is no Bag or Currencies selection when adding items it just has 0

 

hi im having some issues setting this up, is their a video tutorial to follow or some information, the Documentation just briefly explains what things do, but not what to actually do with them.

 

This sounds like a good idea. This will make it so much easier for us non coder users of RFPS prefab to purchase your asset. You may as well add S-Quest to your empty project as well)

 

healthToRestore is a variable at the top of the class that defines if it should add health. There is probably something else causing your error since that is part of the RFPS component.

 

agree, i patched it but kept running into errors so i had to scrap the project after it broke, ill ahve to start a new project and try this all over again. must be doing something wrong

 

It's probably a good idea to just create a new project with only RFPS and S-Inventory. That way you know the errors are only caused by those two. It's easier to start simpler then work you way up from there.

 

I don't know what you are aiming for. The AddItem function doesn't destroy the item, it just hides it from scene view and moves it to the inventory manager object. Are you trying to keep the items activated and at their positions when you pick them up?

 

It will be awesome to share what you need to modify in order to link S-Inventory and Realistic FPS Prefab. Maybe you can write a tutorial on a forum post or your website? Or just send me the tutorial steps in an e-mail and I'll add it to the main post.

 

I was working on creating an example of how to addItems for farming. So if for example you are collecting wood you are adding a certain amount of items per hit with an axe. In that case you do not want the object to be removed until you have completed the process. I was thinking maybe you could add instatiated items instead of the parent object. Maybe I just complicating things farther though

 

There's an easier way to do all of this without changing anything in the code. The wood object (the tree for example) must have an item script with an amount set to 10 for example. Every time you want to add hit the three, simply call AddItem(WoodObj, 1); The script will automatically initiate another wood obj and store it in the inventory.

 

I'm currently working on the new update. A whole new container system will be added. You will be able to container infinite containers and store items in them. More information about this new feature and screenshots will follow later today.

 

The container system update has been submitted to the asset store. It will be available soon. Here's a screenshot of how the container UI window looks:

 

Fantastic! I am glad to see you so active in furthering your app. Thank you.

 

Glad you like it. I'm always looking forward to your suggestions to make S-Inventory even more better!

 

The containers update has been accepted. Hope you like it!

 

Hello how would i go about removing an item from my inventory after using/equipping it? in the Inventory events i have a piece of code saying

if (ItemName == "CynderBrick") {
Transform rocketInstance;
rocketInstance = Instantiate(rocketPrefab, barrelEnd.position, barrelEnd.rotation) as Transform;
//How to remove the equipped / used item now that its a physical form??
}
Thanks!!

Code C#

 

Hello, what are you exactly trying to do? The item gets automatically removed from your inventory when its equipped/used and gets moved to the equipment array, vendor or the skill bar (depending on the item's use). Do you want to remove the item completely when it's used like dropping it instead of moving it somewhere else?

 

Support for the UFPS Kit would also be big for your kit. They are almost done with thier multiplayer kit so they will just get bigger.

Yes, I already bought it and I'm going to post a tutorial on how to make it work with S-Inventory.

 

The thing to do is to make a folder in your project and provide third party support instead of writing/filming tutorials.
Make a simple example with each for that plugin. Take a look at how the Dialog system does it. Many developers use his kit as much of a hub because he has support for so many other app's.

I tell you this because there are so many including his the dialog system that could use a system like yours. Make support for as many app's as you can and you grab sales from all thier clients.

 

Thank you, I will keep that in mind!

 

Yes after equipping the item to the player i want it to be removed completely, from the equipment array too, like using a health potion.

 

PM me your e-mail + invoice number and I will send a modified equipment code to do what you want.

 

S-Inventory is at 50% off! Grab it while you can!

 

Hello SoumiDelRio,

I just bought your S-Inventory System about a week ago. I find the code very clean and easy to understand. However I would like to know can your S-Inventory system be integrated with photon networking. I could be wrong but when your inventory system adds an item which is not present it sets the transform to the inventory transform and then disables the item. Which in photon you would normally go if(PhotonNewtork.isMasterClient) { PhotonNetwork.Destroy(gameobject)}.

What I want to do is when an item is added to the inventory it is destroyed on all other clients and them when one is removed it is instantiated on all clients.

So I would just like to know would would your ideas on integrating this be?

 

I feel indebted to point out the typo in the main poster.

Adavnced Should be Advanced

In case no-one had noticed. Thought you might wanna change it.

Thanks for the thing. I bought it.

 

I'm sorry but I have no experience with Photon. But one customer was able to implement S-Inventory with Photon by modifying the code, I will e-mail him and ask him for instructions in case he wants to share it and I will contact you back.

 

Thanks for the correction! I hope you like the asset.

 

Thank You.
Much appreciated.

 

Hi,

I bought and downloaded the asset from the asset store.
When I opened it, there is no demo scene. Am I missing anything, like a sub package somewhere?

 

Thanks for purchasing the asset! I couldn't upload the demo scene because it includes game objects types that that can't be included in the asset. Please e-mail me ( www.soumidelrio.com/contact ) your invoice number and I will send you both of the demo scene.

 

I see. Will email you shortly.

 

Okay. I've sent you the request and the invoice number using your contact form.

 

I have sent you the demo scenes, check your e-mail please.

 

Yep, got it. Thanks!

 

Hi, SoumiDelRio

I have to say I was hoping to use this on Android so immediately went for the "Inverted Portrait 10x16" however I am struggling to get your example files to resize to 350 wide by 400 high and still be easy to use (I almost have this, so... don't worry about it)


But please how do I: A) stop widows being draggable and give them a default location
B) make the inventory window draw the names UNDER the items not in the middle.

Thanks.

 

Hey Twobob,

A) To stop windows from being dragged, you just have to un-check the "Is Movable" option from the Inventory UI inspector. Then pick the window's default position from the same script. You'll have five options to choose from: Middle screen, top right corner, lower right corner, top left corner, lower left corner.
B) The current inventory system doesn't actually draw names under the items nor in the middle. Mind explaining more?

 

hmm.. The thing where you equip the stuff.

Here's some pictures of what I am struggling to do.

Align the skillbar. The Border and Margin don't do what I would expect, in fact so far I haven't got them to anything. How do I align stuff manually? And I know how to code, I'm just asking best practice via your interface.



Having a TOP MIDDLE alignment would be very handy.




Make the windows mutex each other, is there a switch for that? I don't see one...



Here is where I would like to have underneath alignment.



Thanks.

 

Hello, do you want the code modification to be in JS or C#?

P.S: Top middle and lower middle alignment will be added in the next update for everyone. Equipment slots names position will be editable from the inspector to support placing them in the middle of the slot.

 

c# please sir.

Excellent news then!

also I think the crafting interface would work better using the XBOX360 minecraft approach "I have the resources, let me build one", rather than the PC minecraft approach "craft the relevant ingredients here, then press GO".

At the very least you would require a "+CRAFT" option in the Inventory window to prevent the drag/drop requirement to make this mobile friendly.

Just a thought, thanks for your time on this.

 

Please PM me your e-mail + invoice number so that I can send you the modified code. One last thing, did you mean by making the windows mutex each other to have the equipment window hidden when the inventory window appears and the other way around? (I have made the changes you requested me to do, I'm just checking the mutex thing).

 

Yeah. I already did the invoice number thingy, But Ill send it again if you really want

About the mutex. Probably a logical toggle. just toggle the visible windows (there are 3 possibilties I think, including crafting?) to be down and the new one to be up. Thanks you kindly

 

That sounded really ungrateful. Thanks very much

 

Just sent you the modified code in an e-mail. Let me know ASAP if it doesn't work or if you need anything else.
Thanks for the suggestion about the crafting system as well, I will consider that in a future update.

 

Excellent. I'll go check it out right now. Project all lined up

EDIT: okay so the changes are great

I attached a pic for a "nice-to-have" out-of-the-box mobile 16:10 portrait layout.
[C] would be a crafting button. 3 skill slots.


Love the mutexing windows, love the centralised names, love the top middle on the window that has it.


Also attached two pics, One of the Equipment screen, and one of the Inventory. Looking nice now

would still love to know how to move the skills bar.

 

Speak of the devil! (Though I've been called worse. ) The Dialogue System version 1.3.9 was just released. It's available on the Pixel Crushers customer download page, and it should be on the Asset Store in a few days. This version introduces support for S-Inventory. It also includes a sub-package that integrates S-Inventory with Realistic FPS Prefab without having to modify any S-Inventory or Realistic FPS Prefab source code. It was a little tricky getting them to play nicely together without touching source code, so if you notice any issues or have any feature requests, please let me know!

EDIT: In case it's helpful to others, here's the integration package. It includes source code and example scenes. It doesn't include any S-Inventory, Realistic FPS Prefab, or Dialogue System files, so it won't compile as-is unless you have those packages installed. But the source code might be helpful to look at anyway if you're trying to get S-Inventory and Realistic FPS Prefab to work together. The documentation for the package is here.

 

Seriously....

how do you move the UI elements around?

the only settings I have found so far , do nothing, in any context I have tried to use them.
I must be misunderstanding something... for example as shown here setting all of the values to a bottom offset does nothing.

if this dialog refers to text only assets a label would be nice.

basically none of the layout parameters seem to visually change any part of the componentry.
So I am stuck a little bit.

I am only trying to make very simple manipulations of locations.

 

Hi @SoumiDelRio - I enjoyed working with S-Inventory. May I request a few additions to InventoryEvents.cs?

1. Would you consider using SendMessage() to notify other scripts when an event occurs? I understand you maintain UnityScript and C# versions, so I won't request C# events. This way, we can write handler scripts without having to directly modify InventoryEvents.cs/js.

2. Please add events when the player picks up or drops items.

3. If an Item's equipment slot is blank, would you send an OnItemUsed message when the player selects Use/Equip? This way, our code can handle usables as appropriate for our projects. For example, with the Realistic FPS Prefab integration, I'd like to be able to pick up a medkit and, at a later time, open my inventory and select Use/Equip to heal myself.

4. Can we assign trigger keys/numbers to the skillbar?

If any of these are already implemented and I just missed them, please let me know! Thanks!

 

Those buttons' positions can be modified in InventoryGUI script at lines 580, 594 and 610. The problem about UI elements positions in screen is that the system require a lot of GUI coding so it's hard to locate the rects of the UI elements in scripts. This would improve hugely when the 4.6 version is out. However, I would be more than happy to assist you with any modification in the asset.

 

okay - thanks - that was probably the tip I needed.

I'll just hardcode.
