#

if youre animating one slot just check if they're still in the inventory and change the slot

#

you can probably set a local var to the inventory, modify it, and then open it

#

like how ?

#

can i send u the code ?

swift moss
#

May I ask, why wouldn't you want to use a function for this? It's much more efficient.

tough sparrow
#

i donot know how to use fuctions and what is fuction

#

i will sreach

swift moss
# tough sparrow thx, but im actully not good bcz im a newer here

functions are easy, ill give an example.

Definition of a function from google: In computer programming, a function or subroutine is a sequence of program instructions that performs a specific task, packaged as a unit. This unit can then be used in programs wherever that particular task should be performed. Basically a way of reusing bits of code without typing it all again.

Example of a functioning GUI using the skript-gui addon:

function openGUI(p: player):
  create a gui with chest inventory with 3 rows named "Test":
    make gui 0 with dirt
  open last gui to {_p}

command /gui:
  trigger:
    openGUI(player)

As seen on the last line, I am passing a player argument in the function, passing the player themselves, so the function can use the player argument to open the gui to the player.

In the function, {_p} is the letter or whatever is in place of p: player, so if it is doo: player then the variable will be {_doo} for that argument of the function.

Then if I want to reload the GUI while the player is already in the GUI

(example code below)

on inventory click:
  name of event-inventory is "Test"
  if event-item is dirt:
    openGUI(player)

By running that function again whilst the player is in the GUI, clicking the dirt runs that code and runs the function to open the gui to the player again. This "refreshes" the GUI.

#

I hope that helps

#

Note that the code for the GUI in these examples require the skript-gui addon, which can be found here

#

tysm man for all, but can the gui reload without any click event ? like reloading the lore ? so if i player put the mouse cursor on the item and there i lore "amount players in room: {var}" thats the var reloading ?

No worries, my hand really hurts now xD

Uh, you could create a loop to loop all the players viewing/in the gui and refresh it for the loop-player which would refresh it for everyone viewing the GUI.
In simple terms, loop-player stores the players in a loop, so if you do loop all players: you'd have to use loop-player to call that group of everyone that has been looped

like:

swift moss
#

I'll see if I can make another example

tough sparrow
#

i 'll show u the code

#

in 1m

swift moss
# 
every 10 seconds:
  loop all players:
    if name of loop-player's inventory is "Test":
      openGUI(loop-player)

NOTE: It is not recommended to run frequent loops on a server with not that many resources, as it could lag and potentially crash your server. You could give it a go though.

This code has not been tested, it may not work.

#

should work

#

with my other pieces of exampe code it should anyway

tough sparrow
#

so i can test my code

swift moss
#

I suggest using function for your GUIs so you can refresh it easily

tough sparrow
#

okay thanks

#

i will

swift moss
#

go based on what I have done in my example, try to understand what I've done

#

I've tried to write enough documentation in that message as much as I can

#

hopefully it will help
