Getting hero items #14

Closed ericp1337 closed 8 years ago

ericp1337 commented 8 years ago

I was wondering how I would go about getting the players items at the end of the game. I looked at the example for getting the end of game stats, but am unsure how to go about getting the list of items a player has in their inventory when the game is finished.

I suspect i have to tell it the field path but am unsure what that would be or how to get it.

Thanks

First, you gotta get hold of the hero entity.

Those hero entities have properties m_hItems.XXXX (XXXX being a number, 0000 for the first item). The value of the property is a "handle", you can get the corresponding item-entity with ctx.getProcessor(Entities.class).getByHandle(theHandleFromTheHeroEntity)

To find out exactly what item it is, the item has a property m_pEntity.m_nameStringableIndex, which is an index into a StringTable (dunno exact name, something along the lines of "EntityNames").

Good luck!

So I noticed that m_hItems.XXXX goes between 0000-0013. If there are only 6 hero backpack slots, what are the other 8 slots used for?

Good question, I'm guessing this is probably to not restrain custom games to 6 items? Or maybe it's the stash?

TodorovicF commented 8 years ago

Thanks! I'll take a look and see what they are. Would be great if the stash is included there.

It was indeed the stash :)
