Rarity System

[fallow rock]

Is it possible to make a custom inventory that shows each weapon's rarity? Just like in Fortnite

[spare hinge]

Maybe... But idk how

Sorry if i shouldn't ping tho

Its cuz i learned if 24 hours pass i can ping helpers

[fallow rock]

y'all took so long to answer im literally so close to finishing making it myself. But at the same time im not

[spiral hazel]

yes, but idk how

[fallow rock]

<@&1050648858243379231>

[dreamy shore]

Yeah, you just need a way to show it either using/generating a child object that shows weapon stuff

[fallow rock]

Im halfway through finishing it myself, i used config tables. And now idk how to make them equipable

@dreamy shore

[fallow rock]

Like when you press it will equip it

[dreamy shore]

You can use an ID system for the equipped weapon so the game knows what's equipped, you can use a numbers var or a text var, text is for convenience and number for speed and less length, although just go with what helps you best

Basically
0 or "None" = No weapon
1 or "Weapon1" = weapon number 1
2 or "Weapon2" = weapon number 2 and so on

Nunbers and names can be anything but it ahould have some sort of order so it's not messy

[fallow rock]

Oooohhh i get your idea and its actually creative and good, thx!

[dreamy shore]

You're welcome

[fallow rock]

But how do i give every weapon its ID?

[dreamy shore]

You can use If checks, check if the variable = the weapon you want

[fallow rock]

Do i do like "Set Shotgun = Weapon1 (player variable)

Or wait that wouldn't work

[dreamy shore]

CurrentWeapon = "Shotgun"
If CurrentWeapon = "Shotgun" then
[Shotgun stuff]
End

[fallow rock]

I used config tables for the custom inventory i talked about and i basically did like row 1 Asset: Minigun Rarity: Rare Rarity color: Blue (color not text tho) Image: Minigun and tye same thing for shotgun but different things. So i do like if current weapon is shotgun then:
Set childobject Image = Shotgun
Set color= Config table = Row 3 color
Set text = Config table Row 3 Text
Like this?

[dreamy shore]

If you make the CurrentWeapon a numbers var you could just extract from where the shotgun row is without needing ifs
Infinite loop
Keep wait until CurrentWeapon ≠ 0
Set child object.texture = row CurrentWeapon image
Set color = configtable row CurrentWeapon color and so on

Would also remove the need for extra ifs for each weapon

You just need to know the in config table ID of the weapon and make sure it doesn't go above the max or it will break

[fallow rock]

Ok thanks i'll try to understand this script and try it in Julian Royale!!

[fallow rock]

If you're available. Can you try to make me the script ingame? I don't really understand it

[dreamy shore]

Just place the current weapon var inside the row num

[fallow rock]

huh?

Ohh wait

I think i get it

[fallow rock]

I have another problem i understood what you said but when i press player Main Actor. Current actor. Components. Battle. Weapon. Then current weapon i can't press it i can't press current weapon only. Like i can't stop it there

[fallow rock]

There should be a ✓?

[dreamy shore]

Cuz the current weapon isn't an object that exists per se

[fallow rock]

Right?

[dreamy shore]

So you have to just use original asset

[fallow rock]

Am i correct so far:
Infinite loop
Set Self Child object the 1 first child object texture = Config table Find Player Current weapon

Its not after pressing tho its when object is created

Please bro i am getting a stroke from this script i can't understand cuz im stupid

[dreamy shore]

I thought you were gonna use a custom player var and custom inventory weapon handling, nonetheless there's the command switch weapon to change weapons

[fallow rock]

What do you mean custom Inventory "handling"?

Srry for being annoyting though

[dreamy shore]

Technical stuff

[fallow rock]

Sorry for being a dumb ahh

[fallow rock]

I understand it now

I read it too fast earlier

[fallow rock]

Btw do i do like inventory slot in "weapon number 1"

[fallow rock]

Im doing what you're saying but like yk a Number var can't be a string or an asset ciz you told me "Current weapon = "Shotgun""

@dreamy shore

[dreamy shore]

Yeah because its literal ID now, and i thought you were doing custom inventory and not built in

[fallow rock]

That's what im gonna do

You thought i was about to use the built in inventory?

[dreamy shore]

Okay, so basically current weapon would just be the number of that weapon, aka an ID to identify it

[fallow rock]

Should i also put the current weapon in my rarities config table?

[dreamy shore]

Maybe, kinda depends

[fallow rock]

ok

So i do

[fallow rock]

Set current weapon= shotgun id (because like i understood i give every single weapon its ID)
If current Weapon = ShotgunID
Set text = config table rarity
Set text color = config table rarity Color
Set image = Config table Image

[dreamy shore]

Yeah

[fallow rock]

I will put this in when object is created

[dreamy shore]

If you want you can write down the IDs somewhere as a reminde incase you forget what ID a weapon is

[fallow rock]

I'll get an array for that

[fallow rock]

how does the game know what's equiped with just a player number var

[dreamy shore]

Coding and telling it what to do when a variable (thing it needs to know and check for) is X (whatever object or input the variable should be)

[fallow rock]

I made an asset which is the inventory and i put 5 of it for 5 slots and put the max items that can be in the bag to 5. I said this because i have another question (sorry for wasting your time a lil bit) but if i have 4 items, and i have a single slot left. How does the game know its empty with just a zero? And when you press it how does it equip the exact weapon

[dreamy shore]

0 is a default for null or none, you can interpret is as that and it knows by telling it and what to do in such a situation
