Solved Proper way to check Item

[Ramirow]

What function should I use if I need to search if player has x item?
I've seen a lot of getItem functions but I don't see a way to use them properly as I'm constantly getting errors when trying to use them :/
I'm guessing the one I need is: container:getItemCountById

Thanks!

local player = Player(cid)
if player:getItemCount(itemid) < itemAmount then

Looked through this thread and found an example.
I don't work with 1.x, but I'm fairly sure this is the method your looking for.
For your specific use case, to check if a player has item X within their inventory, do this

if player:getItemCount(1111) > 0 then

ItemType(arg) -- arg can be a name or a number

Look at the source you will see additional metamethods ItemType uses. just scroll down.

Thanks guys! Managed to do the same thing but with a different method.
Like this:

if player:removeItem(xxxx, 1) then
  --Player has the item
else
  --He/She didn't
end

It's not the same as the check item, but It was what I needed since I wanted to remove the item afterwards!

local item = ItemType("boots of haste")
if item then
    -- do something
end

local item = ItemType("boots of haste")
if item then
    print( item:getId() )
end
