Limited Inventory - [MZ]

Dungeonmind · 2022-11-28T11:43:12+0900

IntroductionHave you ever wanted to create a game with a limited inventory system similar to games like Skyrim in RPG Maker? If the answer is yes, you’ve come to the right place. Create unlimited containers for your players to store items in, set the maximum weight a container can hold, or disallow new items to be deposited entirely. You can even customize the look of the scene by adjusting values in the plugin parameters. For a full list of features, please see down below. Screenshots Spoiler: Screenshots Spoiler: note tag /parameters examples Features Set the mechanics to “Item Weight” or “Slot Based” to completely change how inventory and container space is calculated. Using note tags, give items, weapons, and armors a weight property. They can be decimals like “0.1” or numbers larger than “1”; you decide. Create and manage all your containers right from the plugin parameters under “Storage Containers.” Afterwards, you can manipulate container settings and contents using script calls and plugin commands throughout your game. Generate new containers using a script call or plugin command from in-game and set the new container’s ID to a variable. Restrict players from taking items from containers when they have no space left and/or restrict any items from being deposited into containers that have reached their maximum weight. When players are at the max weight limit, prevent them from leaving the item and container scenes without dropping/depositing items first. Throughout gameplay, items can be dropped, deposited, or withdrawn from containers. You can set the default sound effect during these times for all items, weapons, and armour. You can also override the default sound effects on a per-item, per-weapon, and per-armor basis using note tags in the database. Change various aspects of the game related to the inventory. You can even change the RPG Maker default maximum item limit! Drop items from the party inventory scene. Compatible with VisuMZ_1_ItemsEquipsCore. Please make sure my plugins are below VisuStella plugins and in the correct order. Text code support for changing the colour in the shop and container name windows. Use note tags to increase/decrease the party maximum weight when an actor is in the current party. Use note tags to increase/decrease the party maximum weight when an actor is affected by a state and is in the current party. Use note tags to increase/decrease the party maximum weight when an item, weapon or armour is present in the inventory. Use note tags to increase/decrease the party maximum weight when the equipment is worn by an actor in the current party. This plugin is now compatible with VisuMZ_4_VisualItemInv.js. You should make sure you activate the parameter “Item Layout” and add “Window_ItemContainer” to the “Applied Windows” parameter in VisuStella’s plugin.

Limited Inventory Update Released: V1.31!
What's New?

Version 1.31 of the DM_LimitedInventory plugin is now available, bringing an important fix and a handy new feature to enhance your game development!

Fixes and Improvements
- Robust Weight Calculation: I've improved the equipWeightBonuses function by adding null checks (guard clauses). This prevents potential errors if an equipped item happens to reference invalid data in your $dataWeapons or $dataArmors databases, ensuring your weight calculations are always accurate.
- Container Restriction Notetag: Now you can specify which containers an item can be deposited into! I've added a new notetag feature that allows you to restrict items from being placed into certain containers, giving you more control over inventory management in your game.
Get Ready to Create!

These updates not only boost the stability of your inventory systems but also unlock new possibilities for crafting unique item management mechanics in your RPG Maker projects. Dive in and make your game worlds even more engaging! Until next time, happy game developing!

Limited Inventory Update Released: V1.32!
What's New?

Version 1.32 of the DM_LimitedInventory plugin is now available, adding powerful new script calls and refining core systems to give you more control and reliability in your inventory management!

Fixes and Improvements
- New Script Calls Added: This update adds three new script calls for developers to use in their games to verify containers for specified items. I've added $gameContainers. getItemAmountFromContainer(containerId, itemId), $gameContainers. getWeaponAmountFromContainer(containerId, weaponId), and $gameContainers. getArmorAmountFromContainer(containerId, armorId). Each function returns the total count of the specified item, weapon, or armour in that container and returns 0 if the container does not contain it. These functions are fully compatible with DM_IndependentItems and will automatically detect and count unique independent instances that share the same original base ID. You can find usage examples and return details in the help file.
- Smarter Notetag Parsing: Item weight notetags are now more forgiving and consistent. The plugin accepts flexible formatting and ignores leading or trailing spaces, so <itemWeight: 2.5>, <itemWeight: 2.5>, and <itemWeight: 2> all parse correctly as 2.5, 2.5, and 2. Empty or invalid tags will default to 0. The Window_ItemWeight display has been updated to trim whitespace as well, ensuring the displayed value matches the value used in calculations.
- Modern Code Structure: I have converted the entire plugin to an IIFE with 'use strict' mode. This change eliminates global namespace pollution and enforces stricter error checking throughout the codebase. There are no API changes for developers with this update.
- Documentation Updated: I have added a new disclaimer to the plugin header and simplified the Terms of Use section. The help file now includes usage examples for the new getAmount script calls.
Get the Update!

With better error handling, reliable notetag parsing, and direct script access to container contents, V1.32 cuts down on guesswork and lets you build exactly what you envision. The new script calls handle DM_IndependentItems out of the box, so unique instances are counted correctly during quantity checks. Grab the update and get back to building!

Limited Inventory Update Released: V1.33!
Version 1.33 of the DM_LimitedInventory plugin is now available, addressing a battle crash that occurred when selecting items with an empty inventory in the default battle scene.

Bug Fix
- Fixed an issue in Scene_Battle where attempting to use items with no items in the party would cause RPG Maker MZ to crash with "Cannot read property 'id' of undefined." When the filtered item list returned undefined entries, Scene_Battle.prototype.onItemOk would try to access properties on them. Added safety checks to handle empty or undefined item slots, preventing crashes during battle item selection.
Changelog

This update improves the stability of battle item interactions when using DM_LimitedInventory with the vanilla battle system. To apply the fix, download the new copy of the plugin and replace the old plugin file in your project's js/plugins folder. Happy game developing!
