I didnt find solution for this.

This work:
my_sack.containeritem:addItem(my_item.item)

But this do not:
my_sack.containeritem:removeItem(my_item.item)

Iam trying to make sack for specific items. So if you try to put inside wrong items, it wont let you and they spawn in front of party.
I figured everything else I just cant destroy or remove wrong item from sack
This is my code so far in sack item defineObejct:

Code: Select all

onInsertItem = function(self, item)
  local itmName = item.go.name
  local itm = item.go.id
  local bag = "my_sack"
  if itmName ~= "good_item" then
     hudPrint("There goes only good items.") --work
     spawn(itmName,party.level,party.x,party.y,party.facing,0)  --work
     bag.containeritem:removeItem(itm.item) -- doesnt work
  end
end

The problem is two fold, and it's all in this line:

Code: Select all

bag.containeritem:removeItem(itm.item)

1. bag is a string, so it basically says "my_sack".containeritem instead of self.go.containeritem.
2. Same for itm.item. itm is a string, while it should be a reference to the item object.

The line should be:

Code: Select all

self.go.containeritem:removeItem(item.go.item)

Here's a new version of the script:

Code: Select all

onInsertItem = function(self, item)
    if item.go.name ~= "good_item" then
        hudPrint("There goes only good items.")
        spawn(item.go.name, party.level, party.x, party.y, party.facing, party.elevation)
        self.go.containeritem:removeItem(item.go.item)
    end
end

Thank you, work as intended

I'm missing something here; how can I check a floor trigger for specific items like I would a surface. A .floortrigger can't have contents but blocks the actual floor.

[GoldenShadowGS]

You just need to check the entire tile.

Code: Select all

for i in floor_trigger_1.map:entitiesAt(floor_trigger_1.x,floor_trigger_1.y) do
	if i.elevation == floor_trigger_1.elevation and i.go.id == "YOURITEMHERE" then
		--DO SOMETHING HERE
	end
end

Really seems like that should work but it doesn't. It says it can't index the game object field.

i.go.name doesn't work either for just an item type

sorry, take out the .go part.

i.id

What the... when I got the .go error first thing I did was remove that, but I must of had something else messed up too.

It's working now Thanks

How can I teleport to its original starting point a pushable block through a button?

I want to avoid that a player reaches a dead end where the puzzle can´t be solved... because all pushable blockers could be blocking each others.

Thanks in advance guys!

I don't think you can teleport them, but you can destroy them and spawn new ones in the original positions.
