Title: How to control the inventory box?
Post by: Jyujinkai on September 26, 2007, 07:30:58 AM

I cna not seam to find out how to control the inventory box... I am using the inventory from the trinity demo... I have made a new graphic for it.... but my graphic is a lot taller then the one in the demo. So when it trys to hide it the bottom of the graphic pokes out.

I have set up the window .def file.

The inventory item boxes and spaces between them.

The width and height of the inventory box is equal to the image

If i change the X,Y position in the def file it can move along the Y.. but I can not see a way to move it in the X.

Any ideas?

ALSO

Even with the box poking out like that i can see a probelm i can not fix as well... the hot spot for opening and closing the inventory is still set to the width of the original inventoy box... as mine is a lot taller even with 1/2 of it missing there are some slots i can not move the mouse to before the game thinks that i have moused off and auto close it?

Look in scripts\game_daemon.script (game_loop.script for newer projects). There's something like:

Code: WME Script

1.   // display the inventory window
2.   if(Game.Interactive && Game.MouseY < 45 && !Game.ResponsesVisible && !WinMenu.Visible) Game.InventoryVisible = true;
3.   else if(Game.MouseY > 100 || Game.ResponsesVisible || !Game.Interactive) Game.InventoryVisible = false;
4.  

Here you can change the 45 / 100 pixel values to your liking.

if you change this part in your inventory.def file, it still doesn't move in the X direction?

 WINDOW
  {
    X = 100
    Y = 712
