Selecting amount of item

[Dr_Cox1911]

Greetings,

 

kinda lost right now

 

Can´t figure out to programmatically select an amount of items within in the active inventory.

Searched the class ItemContainer in the javadoc but found nothing useful there.

Loop through the inventory and store each item in a table and then sort the ones out you need? At least if I understood you correctly

I think I did something similar in my unpack bags mod...

Actually I ment a selection like the user manually does with Shift+left mouse button.

Still not sure if I understand correctly, but if you want to access the items the player has selected you'll need to do something like this:

 

----- Creates a context menu entry when the player selects-- an inventory container (e.g. hiking bag).-- @param _player - The player who clicked the menu.-- @param _context - The context menu to add a new option to.-- @param _items - A table containing the clicked items / stack.--local function createMenu(_player, _context, _items)	local itemTable = _items; -- The table containing the clicked items.	local context = _context;	local player = getSpecificPlayer(_player);	-- We iterate through the table of clicked items. We have	-- to seperate between single items, stacks and expanded	-- stacks.	for i1 = 1, #itemTable do		local item = itemTable[i1];		if instanceof(item, "InventoryItem") and instanceof(item, "InventoryContainer") then			doAwesomeStuff()		elseif type(itemTable[i1]) == "table" then			-- We start to iterate at the second index to jump over the dummy			-- item that is contained in the item-table.			for i2 = 2, #itemTable[i1].items do				local item = itemTable[i1].items[i2];				if instanceof(item, "InventoryItem") and instanceof(item, "InventoryContainer") then					doAwesomeStuff()				end			end		end	endend-- -------------------------------------------------- Game Hooks-- ------------------------------------------------Events.OnPreFillInventoryObjectContextMenu.Add(createMenu);

It is a bit complicated, but this is every possible situation for the item selection (afaik):

local function table()	-- One item	local clickedItems = {		[1] = Inventory.Item;	}	-- Stack (folded)	local clickedItems = {		table = {			[1] = DummyItem;			[2] = Inventory.Item;			[3] = Inventory.Item;			[4] = Inventory.Item;			[5] = "..."		}	}	-- Stack (unfolded)	local clickedItems = {		[1] = DummyItem;		[2] = Inventory.Item;		[3] = Inventory.Item;		[4] = Inventory.Item;		[5] = "...";	}	-- Multiple Stacks selected	local clickedItems = {		table1 = {			[1] = DummyItem;			[2] = Inventory.Item;			[3] = Inventory.Item;			[4] = Inventory.Item;			[5] = "..."		},		table2 = {			[1] = DummyItem;			[2] = Inventory.Item;			[3] = Inventory.Item;			[4] = Inventory.Item;			[5] = "..."		},		table3 = {			"..."		},		"..."	}end
