TFS 1.X+ Item reference

[czouski]

I am trying to make unique item that is a lootbag for a player.
I want player to have max of 3 lootbags
I want to reference those lootbags in player storage somehow.
so that he cant create more than 3 but also if he has the 3 base storages full of items and they exist in game world ( engine memory) to prevent him from making more

tl;dr if impossible i will add a banishment for a day if player makes more than 10 in short time span to prevent griefers or some shit.

local talkaction = TalkAction("!lootbag")

function talkaction.onSay(player, words, param)
    -- Get item in the player's left or right slot
    local itemLeft = player:getSlotItem(CONST_SLOT_LEFT)
    local itemRight = player:getSlotItem(CONST_SLOT_RIGHT)

    -- Check if either left or right slot has item 1987
    local item = itemLeft and itemLeft:getId() == 1987 and itemLeft or (itemRight and itemRight:getId() == 1987 and itemRight)
    print(item)
    -- If the player doesn't have the item in either slot, show a message
    if not item then
        player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING, "You need to have item 1987 in either the left or right slot to use this command.")
        return
    end

    -- Get the item description
    local description = item:getDescription():lower()  -- Convert description to lowercase
    local playerName = player:getName()  -- Get the player's name in lowercase

    -- Pattern to match "It weighs X.XX oz."
    local weightPattern = "it weighs %d+%.%d%d oz%."

    -- Check if description matches the weight pattern
    if string.find(description, weightPattern) then
        -- Find the part of the description after the weight pattern
        local postWeightText = description:match(weightPattern .. "(.*)"):gsub("^%s*(.-)%s*$", "%1")  -- Trim whitespace

        -- If there's no text after "oz.", add the player's name in the description
        if postWeightText == "" then
            -- Update the description with the player's name
            local newDescription = playerName
            item:setAttribute("description", newDescription)
            player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING, "You are now protecting this bag.")
        elseif postWeightText == playerName then
            -- If the name matches the description, allow the item move (e.g., for looting or another action)
            player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_STATUS_INFO, "You are already a owner of this lootbag.")
        else
            -- If the name does not match the description, show a warning
            player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING, "You cannot loot this item because the description does not match your name.")
        end
    else
        -- If the description doesn't match the pattern, show a warning
        player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING, "The item description doesn't have a valid weight pattern.")
    end
end

talkaction:register()

another work aroudn im thinking is because i have event for moving it to save the items position when player moves it into his storage but there could be issues when its in depo or something

I dont fully understand your solution and i dont see storage values used there. (Is it like an autolooting to those bags) ?
But since you're using

getSlotItem

that lootbag has to be in player's inventory slot ?
If so you can use movement script for ID 1987 to define custom onEquip onDeEquip functions

function onEquip(player, item, slot, isCheck)
    if isCheck then
        return true
    end
    --check current lootbags count in storage
    local currentLootbags = player:getStorageValue(LOOT_BAG_STORAGE)
    if (currentLootbags >= 3) then
        player:sendCancelMessage("You have reached the maximum amount of lootbags.")
        return false
    end
    player:setStorageValue(LOOT_BAG_STORAGE, currentLootbags + 1)
    return true
end
function onDeEquip(player, item, slot, isCheck)
    if isCheck then
        return true
    end
    local currentLootbags = player:getStorageValue(LOOT_BAG_STORAGE)
    player:setStorageValue(LOOT_BAG_STORAGE, currentLootbags - 1)
    return true
end
end

I want to be able to reference the item after server save and so on so if player has 3 of those items I want him not to be able to create more.
the bag can not be opened by other players ( onUse function is doing that)
the bag can not be moved by other players (events onMoveItem ) does that
now I want to restrict how many of them player can have.
