Separate item show functions #250

For link picking up an item there should be 2 distinct Show() or Use() or whatever named Item functions.

I want to be able to spawn the item above his head without triggering animations (e.g. bomb)

I think the Use() function we have right now serves the purpose you need. However it is true that heart, triforce and fairy have animations with the current Use() function, that will actually need new sprite to be created and I'll work on that. OneRupee also flashes but I think you don't need to show them over Link's head when picking them up?

All items are static when link holds them above his head IIRC

SimonL9889 commented 1 year ago

I went back to the walkthrough of the original game and found the following:

In first dungeon only bow and triforce are raised over Link's head when picked up, other items simply disappear
Triforce keeps flashing when it is raised over Link's head

Therefore I believe the Use() function is enough for now. If you wanna check it yourself let me know and I can give you timestamps in the walkthough video on YouTube. I'll wait to see what you think before I close this issue.
