Setting up without the prefab otherwise is a little more complicated, as it would involve creating all the working parts of the inventory. The two main working parts are the InventoryItemSlots<\/a> and the ItemAmountInfoPanel<\/a>.
You can find prefabs for the two individual components in \/prefabs\/UI called InventorySlots and ItemAmountInfoPanel. If you decide you do not want slots or the ItemAmountInfoPanel then you do not need to have them. The only required part is this component itself.
This component should be placed under a Canvas.<\/p>\n\n\n\nGlobal Storage Solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
All ItemContainers<\/a> by default are set to be included in this solution, but on ItemContainer<\/a> there is an option for ‘Include In Global Inventory’ which is enabled by default. By disabling this, the Inventory will not use this ItemContainer<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSettings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
All Item<\/a> Scriptable Objects should be added into this List to ensure correct Item finding.
Selection Method<\/strong>
There are 4 methods, each will order the ItemContainers<\/a> based on these and return the best fit for the Selection Method chosen.
Priority – On each ItemContainer there is a ‘Priority’ setting. Selection will pick higher numbers first. So if you had for example a specific ItemContainer<\/a> that needed filling first, you could given that Priority 10, while the others could just be the default value.
Distance – Selection is made based on where the ItemAmount<\/a> has come from (ResourceNode<\/a> or Crafter<\/a> transform) to the nearest ItemContainer<\/a>.
Random – Selection is made completly randomly.
Default – You can assign some default containers, and selection will simply go through this list in order of the ItemContainers<\/a> in the list.
Default Containers<\/strong>
The default containers to use for the Default Selection Method.
Display Type<\/strong>
This describes how the ItemAmounts<\/a> are displayed in the Inventory UI panels.
Consolidated – All ItemAmounts<\/a> will appear in the same stack. For example, if you had 5 x Log in one ItemContainer<\/a> and 7 x Log in another, then the Inventory UI would simply show 1 InventoryItemSlot<\/a> with 12 x Log.
Item Stack Size – All ItemAmounts<\/a> are broken up into there respective stack sizes. Using the example above – If Log had a stack size of 5, you would see 3 InventoryItemSlot’s<\/a> with 2 of them containing 5, and the other containing 2.
Inventory Panel<\/strong>
Assign the Inventory Panel to open and close when Inventory Input is triggered.
Item Amount Info Panel<\/strong>
Assign the ItemAmountInfoPanel<\/a> gameobject. This is basically the ItemAmount info screen. On here you can see various things like amount, value, stack size, and also the option to sell the ItemAmount<\/a> via a slider.
Slots<\/strong>
These are the InventoryItemSlots<\/a> needed to display the UI ItemAmounts<\/a> in the Inventory Panel. You should assign a reasonable amount to never run out of slots. (Make enough for your max inventory size).
Close Btn<\/strong>
The Button component to assign to close the Inventory UI window.<\/p>\n\n\n\nEvent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
