Support

Post your question(s) here. Or post to my blog

Known Compatibility Issues

It should be compatible with any item related script. Such as my weapon upgrade script. But I don't know about menu related script

Demo

The script is plug n play. No demo needed

Author's Notes

This is the rewrite version of my item slot script. One of my very first script which has terrible workflows and compatibility. I decided to unsupport that script due of my lack of RGSS3 skill back then. I used internaly for my game until there're many requests from my fellow RM user in my community.

Absolutely an amazing script! I have a question though. How would I go about make the all my "key items" not count as part of the item size?

So for instance, I can hold 0/64 items in my inventory and have "Unlimited" amount of Key Items in my Key Items category that would not count towards the original item inventory count at all.

Just set its size to 0 and it will not count as part of item size
Well, they not literally unlimited. But they have a large number for their limit instead. Let's say 999999
Who is going to have that number of item anyway?

Aaanndd....
Script updated! I just found there're some issues in my script

[hytporsche69]

Thanks for the update. Quick question, Anyway to disable "Key items" from being discarded?

Ohhh, I didn't think of it.
I'll update later. Thanks for mentioning an important feature XD

[hytporsche69]

Any new updates?

[TheoAllen]

Script updated!
Sorry for being late. My college life is just began

[PhoenixFire]

Damn, I saw this, got excited, then read that it's a VX Ace script =p

Do you know of a comparable XP script for it?

[TheoAllen]

I don't know well about RGSS / RMXP script. Both its script structures and published scripts. Since I have abandoned RMXP since long time ago.

[hytporsche69]

Finally got to adding in your updated version. Works like a charm! Everything seems to be working fine and the "key items" are not discardable

[blacks888]

How can I change the inventory max with a script call? like having an extended inventory???

[vindaca]

As of the way it is set up now, that is not an option.

This note tag is the only option. Btw this is ripped straight from the script.

Code Select Expand


  <inv plus: n>
  Use this notetag to determine the additional avalaible free inventory slot.
  This notetag avalaible for Actor, Class, Equip, and States. If it's for
  actor, avalaible inventory slot will increase when a new actor entered party.
  If it's for equip, the avalaible slot will be increase if the certain equip
  is equipped. And so do states


[TheoAllen]

There's no such a script call like that,... at least, for now
But you may use a states to do such a thing.
Let's say, you have a state named 'inventory+10'
It will add more 10 free slot if you add <inv plus: 10> in notebox

[TheoAllen]

Bump! updated for new version 1.3
I have added option to change inventory limit using script call during the game
And now you can also define you own formula to determine inventory limit

well, I suffer from horrible things when I use events so the player can "find" stuff on floor, the event actually disapears as spected, but if the inventory is already full, the item that was suposed to get from the event disapears too, because cant have it in the inventory, same when getting stuff out from the "vault" with the inventory secure script

is there a way to solve this?

Sorry for late reply. Before you make a "change item" event, make a conditional branch --> script call

Code Select Expand

$game_party.free_slot > 1
It will return true if there is any avalaible slot. One at the minimum.
Then make "change item" event
