[hot minnow]

But also uh, this looks like the correct place? if you're trying to make a Denizen script then this is the right channel to ask in @spiral spoke

[hot minnow]

Otherwise, please close the post as explained here ^

[spiral spoke]

Oh sorry, I thought it might be classed as a question and therefore the wrong place to ask

[hot minnow]

This channel is for questions, it's the Denizen support channel

[spiral spoke]

right so I was in the right place 😂

I was trying to wrap my head around saving, clearing and then restoring players inventories based on worldguard regions, I was looking through the inventory commands but wasn't quite sure which ones to use

[hot minnow]

WorldGuard doesn't seem to have any useful API for detecting that, so your best bet is probably to use Denizen notes - can either note them with the same area the WG region or replace the WG region with them

!g special memory

[edgy rock]

GuidePage: Special Memory: Notable Objects

View the guide page 'Special Memory: Notable Objects' at: https://guide.denizenscript.com/guides/advanced/notables.html

[hot minnow]

!t WorldGuardRegionTag.area

[edgy rock]

Tag: <WorldGuardRegionTag.area>

Returns the region's block area as a CuboidTag or PolygonTag.

Required Plugins or Platforms

Depenizen, WorldGuard

Group

conversion

Returns

AreaObject

[hot minnow]

Not sure if you want it to be dynamic or not, but can use that to easily get a region's area ^

After you have the area noted, can use

!e enters exists

[edgy rock]

Cannot Find Searched Event

Unknown event.

Possible Confusion

Did you mean to search for entity enters portal?

[hot minnow]

!e enters|exists area

[edgy rock]

Cannot Find Searched Event

Unknown event.

Possible Confusion

Did you mean to search for entity enters|exits area?

[edgy rock]

Event: entity enters|exits area

Group

Entity

**WARNING**

cancelling this event will have different results depending on the cause. Teleporting the entity away 1 tick later might be safer.

Event Lines

<entity> enters|exits <area>

Triggers

when an entity enters or exits a noted area (cuboid, ellipsoid, or polygon). On Spigot servers, only fires for players. Paper is required for other mob types.

Has Player

When the entity is a player. - this adds switches flagged:<flag name> + permission:<node>, in addition to the <player> link.

Context

<context.area> returns the area object that was entered or exited.
<context.cause> returns the cause of the event. Can be: WALK, WORLD_CHANGE, JOIN, QUIT, TELEPORT, VEHICLE.
<context.to> returns the location the entity moved to (might not be available in exit events).
<context.from> returns the location the entity moved from (when available, depending on cause).
<context.entity> returns the entity that entered/exited an area.

Cancellable

True - this adds <context.cancelled> and determines cancelled + cancelled:false.

[hot minnow]

That ^ to detect a player going in/out

You can then store all of the items currently in their inventory:

!t PlayerTag.inventory

[edgy rock]

Tag: <PlayerTag.inventory>

Works with offline players.

Returns

InventoryTag

[hot minnow]

!g flags

Additional Usage Examples

... and 5 more.

[hot minnow]

See the clear option there ^

And that should handle clearing and saving it once they exit the region, for setting it back once they enter, all you need to do is get their items from the flag

!t FlaggableObject.flag

[edgy rock]

Tag: <FlaggableObject.flag[<flag_name>]>

Returns the specified flag from the flaggable object.
If the flag is expired, will return null.
Consider also using !tag FlaggableObject.has_flag.
See !language flag system.

Returns

ObjectTag

[hot minnow]

And set it back into their inventory - can use inventory set ^
