Recommended way to show an interface that user can drop inventory items to?

  • #1, by chrisg 6 years ago Zitieren
    Hello! I'm a brand new user and have learned quite a bit through tutorials and the docs and just experimenting in Visionaire Studio and mostly I'm really finding it easy to learn.

    I've hit my first snag where I was hoping to get some pointers for the community: I have a chest object, when the user interacts with it I want to show a close up view of the inside of the chest. I want the user to be able to use their inventory (i have a strip across the top of the screen showing their inventory items) to drop item into the chest, or click on objects and get them out of the chest.

    I tried doing this as another scene, and using the 'show scene/menu' action part. This worked, and i can see inside the chest and i can still see the inventory across the top of the screen. I tried to have an object inside the chest, it has the 'item dropped' Action. This doesn't activate though ... and I was wondering if scenes only work if I actually send a player there who can walk up to the object?

    Is there a better recommended way to do this?  Should I use an 'interface'? and if so can I show the inventory and use the 'item dropped' action on an interface?

    Thanks in advance!

    Well I solved my own problem eventually ... I hadn't noticed that there were two options for 'Item dropped' actions - one grouped under 'EXECUTE AT DESTINATION' and one grouped under 'IMMEDIATE EXECUTION'. Once I changed it to the latter one, it worked fine. It obviously wouldn't work with the first because there is no character on the screen or anywhere to walk to.
