Virtual Containers (TFS 1.1)

[Acedayz]

Any ideas on how to implement virtual containers?

For example, a container that can be assigned an id which you use to open/close the container.

local container = Container(100)
player:openContainer(100)
container:addItem(2160, 100)

So I could use it to store items in them without actually having a container equipped.
I've been trying to figure it out myself for the past few hours with no success, so any help is appreciated.

Maybe this will help?

On line 27 it shows how the container is used

You can't create virtual containers outside the source I don't think... The only virtual containers I can think of right now are the market and depot systems and I'm pretty sure those are both written in the source, but that would be where you should start looking, if you find out that one of them is scripted, then find the script, but like I said, I'm pretty certain it is done in the source....

use the database

 

[zbizu]

protocolgame.cpp search for "switch (recvbyte) {"

add

cout << recvbyte;

above that to see received bytes when you click on purse icon
don't forget about compiling
after that you may implement your own function to switch instruction in sources

parseSeekInContainer(msg) - checking that function may be useful too

When you click the purse button is calling the parseUseItem, and the purse is on the slot 11. But since the purse doesn't have a spriteid/itemid you can't do much... Unless someone knows how to set a internal id like the browsefield container.

 

[zbizu]

int32_t LuaScriptInterface::luaPlayerGetDepotChest(lua_State* L)

from luascript.cpp may be useful example

int32_t LuaScriptInterface::luaPlayerGetDepotChest(lua_State* L)

from luascript.cpp may be useful example

The real problem (at least to me) is assign some id or something to handle the purse event... But thanks you anyway ♥

 

[zbizu]

if you use visual studio open tfs project and then luascript.cpp and right click on thing you're looking for and then "go to definition" to see where it's defined
it helps a lot in looking for stuff in sources

after that you may write similiar thing for your custom virtual container

I think that you didn't get what I was trying to say
At least can be useful for customs virtual containers (not purse).

Thanks for the help guys, but I managed to do it another way.
Would still be nice to have this function if someone could make it though.

Can I ask how do you did it?
