Escape From Tarkov Inspired Inventory System - Roblox Scripting

A complex inventory system that:

• Has a 10x2 inventory grid system with a 10x20 vicinity grid system and an equipment section
• Checks every time an object that's considered an entity by a customizable module is close to a player; when that happens, the item shows up in the vicinity section by taking up a designated number of grids in the modu...

#

oh boy thats a lot to make...

#

especially because

#

some things take multiple spaces

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:07 AM

#

Where can i start?

static terrace Sep 10, 2022, 11:07 AM

#

making the guis

#

so you can also expand this with backpacks etc?

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:08 AM

#

Alright

static terrace Sep 10, 2022, 11:08 AM

#

don't you want a rust inspired invetory system instead?

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:08 AM

#

No

#

i want it like tarkov

static terrace Sep 10, 2022, 11:08 AM

#

ok i see.

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:09 AM

#

Do you got the some basic tools ready?

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:09 AM

#

Working on it

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:10 AM

#

I'd say first do the basics of all the different types of tools

#

Then make a module for the tools to make the have space, weight

#

So each tool will have their own stat

#

Then start working on the basic ui don't make it look good at the start you need to make it functional first

#

UI the GRIDuiLayout element

#

for the grids

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:12 AM

#

Like this?

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:12 AM

#

yeah

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:12 AM

#

Hm

#

Guess i will work on the module stuff now

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:13 AM

#

I might create a system like that and open source it

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:13 AM

#

oh

#

How much time will it take?

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:14 AM

#

I can't work on it full time as I have school + internship program so I would say maximum 1 month as I want to make it easy to use for everyone

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:14 AM

#

Oh...

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:15 AM

#

forest flower Then make a module for the tools to make the have space, weight

Also, why do i need to add weight to it?

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:15 AM

#

late surge Also, why do i need to add weight to it?

Optional weight for the limit of the amount of stuff you can carry so you can't carry 5 rpgs

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:15 AM

#

forest flower Optional weight for the limit of the amount of stuff you can carry so you can't ...

Oh yeah

#

Nah i dont want

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:16 AM

#

There will be a settings page for my system

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:17 AM

#

for space should i use vector2?

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:18 AM

#

I'd say a tile system would be better than calculating the size

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:18 AM

#

i want it like tarkov tho

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:19 AM

#

I think tarkov uses a tile system

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:19 AM

#

it doesn't

read the title

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:20 AM

#

So there are tiles

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:23 AM

#

i got an idea

#

but it might sound dumb

#

What if we use a grid placement system

#

and use viewport

#

so it acts like an UI

forest flower Sep 10, 2022, 11:24 AM

#

Well that's what I was saying

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 11:32 AM

#

You know what

#

screw it

lest just make a simple gird inventory

late surge lest just make a simple gird inventory

making a tarkov inventory is kind of hard

I might have something to help

Check out GuiManager2d Demo. It’s one of the millions of unique, user-generated 3D experiences created on Roblox.

#

this is a gui module I made, it has dragging, rotating and overlap, should allow you to make a system like that

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:10 PM

#

Ooooo

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:10 PM

#

the only module you need is the GuiManager2d module in ReplicatedStorage and the stuff in it

#

I am actively working on it so it'll get updated in the future, but it should still be useful as it is now

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:11 PM

#

Alright i will look into it later

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:11 PM

#

alright

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:21 PM

#

how do i rotate this one?

#

@visual summit

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:23 PM

#

I might have broke the clamp system, one sec

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:26 PM

#

@visual summit Code is kinda confusing

#

Looks organised tho

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:27 PM

#

yeah, v1.5 is kinda experimental, tryna clear the over-engineered junk from the previous version, I'll show you how to use it in a sec

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:27 PM

#

Alright

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

I've published a fix

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

Alright

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:31 PM

#

right, now I'll explain each function

#

.Draggable() sets up and returns a table of connections to allow the ui frame to be dragged, if you want to stop dragging, use :Destroy() on the object returned by the function. The first parameter is the gui element you want to drag, the second is a table for adding clamps on the X or/and Y axis (and the option for it to only apply once the mouse button is released), and the third parameter is a table for adding a grid on the X or/and Y axis (and once again only applying when releasing)

#

.Rotatable() is similar to .Draggable(), just there's only X for the clamp and grid

#

.Overlap() is similar to workspace:GetPartBoundsInBox(), but 2d. You pass the gui object to overlap with, then a toSearch table, filterList and filterType (I may allow this function to take ZIndex into account at some point)

#

.CreateInstance() is just an Instance.new() wrapper, I'm thinking of removing it

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:38 PM

#

visual summit .CreateInstance() is just an Instance.new() wrapper, I'm thinking of removing it

Yeah i was thinking about it

#

i wanted a pre-made gui

#

instead of using a script to make it

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

that's why I've changed this version to return an object for functions that need them instead of having the whole thing be OOP

#

tryna make it easier to implement with other gui modules and stuff

#

there's also events that you can connect to, but you can disable them through .UpdateSettings() or just in the module if you don't want them to fire

#

and attributes

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:40 PM

#

Also,

#

Is there anyway of making a Draggable and Rotatable

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:41 PM

#

not at the moment, the main reason being rotatable is based on the AnchorPoint, and not where you click

#

if you try to use both at the same time, it's very buggy

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

hm

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

but I do want to update Rotatable to be based on where you click so you can use both

#

not sure how I'll do that yet though 🤣

#

I also wanna add a Toggle function into the objects returns by Draggable and Rotatable so you don't need to connect and disconnect constantly

#

but I'm currently busy modeling a bunch of stuff

late surge Sep 10, 2022, 5:43 PM

#

Oh, what is it?

visual summit Sep 10, 2022, 5:44 PM

#

some assets for a cooking game I help develop
