Equip Wands

my humble web site (under construction): http://www.geocities.com/tgsofgc

This is part of the code it uses unique use items to store local objects on a player for the equipment they are currently wearing.
Other uu items then recall this information coresponding to the propper set and forces them to re-equip it.
This allows you to basically quickslot full changes of equipment.
Easily expandable, comes with capabilities for 3 sets.
This is the code where it sets the local objects:
(note this code isn't complex at all)
Also note this was written in textpad and hence i left out the commenting in this top part...
void main()
{
    object oPc = GetPCSpeaker(); //Pc in the Conversation (ie the item user)
    string sNumber = "_1"; //This is the set number
    //These are whats in the various equipment slots
    object oWeaponL = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_LEFTHAND, oPc);
    object oWeaponR = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_RIGHTHAND, oPc);
    object oHead = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_HEAD, oPc);
    object oBelt = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_BELT, oPc);
    object oBolts = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_BOLTS, oPc);
    object oBoots = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_BOOTS, oPc);
    object oArms = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_ARMS, oPc);
    object oArrows = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_ARROWS, oPc);
    object oBullets = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_BULLETS, oPc);
    object oChest = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_CHEST, oPc);
    object oCloak = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_CLOAK, oPc);
    object oLRing = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_LEFTRING, oPc);
    object oRRing = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_RIGHTRING, oPc);
    object oAmulet = GetItemInSlot (INVENTORY_SLOT_NECK, oPc);
    //store each of the above as local objects with +"_#" as per sNumber above
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "weapon_l"+sNumber, oWeaponL);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "weapon_r"+sNumber, oWeaponR);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "head"+sNumber, oHead);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "belt"+sNumber, oBelt);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "bolts"+sNumber, oBolts);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "boots"+sNumber, oBoots);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "arms"+sNumber, oArms);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "arrows"+sNumber, oArrows);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "bullets"+sNumber, oBullets);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "chest"+sNumber, oChest);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "cloak"+sNumber, oCloak);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "ring_l"+sNumber, oLRing);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "ring_r"+sNumber, oRRing);
    SetLocalObject(oPc, "amulet"+sNumber, oAmulet);
}

Description

This is a simple little set of things in an .erf, included: are 3 scripts that store what a charcter is wearing as local objects. an item activate script to merge with whatever you have there already. a re-equip script that re-equips the propper equipment stored as local objects based on a naming convention 3 wands that re-equip the 3 included sets a wand that opens a conversation that stores their current equipment into one of three sets a conversation (for the above wand) This was made as my means of filling the idea to be able to keep any two peices of equipment in a quickslot. Now you simply use the wand to store your current equipment to a set (#1, 2, or 3) and then when you use the approriate re-equip wand your character re-equips the objects stored in that set. This basically allows you to store an entire set of equipment (including ammunition) to a single quickslot. This is easy to expand, even non scripters should be able to expand it.

This is a compilation of the old system into a single score. There were 2 that made this score of 9.50 then rounded to 10.

Thanks for the praise, DoA!
Anyways yup your right, everything is included in the download, it is actually multiple wands. I did it like this so they could be used as quick as possible to change your equipment set. So one wand sets things to either one of three sets via a conversation, then you canuse one of the other three wands to re-equip whatever is assigned to that set.
Note however that unless you change bioware's combat coding characters still can't change their armor in combat.
Also for anyone wondering, if you no longer have an item or can't equip a particular item any longer and you use the re-equip wand it will simply skip over that peice of equipment. Similarly if you had it set for a half-plate and you lost that half plate but bought another you will have to re-cue the set because it uses local objects. Namely it remembers the set you had on not the new set that looks just like it.

I'm sure you probably just forgot to leave this out, but you will need another script to requip the items. If this is going in an onActivateItem script, you could get away with one item and have target self=save the info and target anything else=reequip.

The block I'm using to reequip looks like this:
oTemp = GetLocalObject(oPC, "weapon_l"+Set); if (oTemp != OBJECT_INVALID && GetItemPossessor(oTemp) == oPC) AssignCommand(oPC, ActionEquipItem(oTemp, INVENTORY_SLOT_LEFTHAND));

...etc

You make the cleverest scripts, TGSoGC!

I know I've seen this in other MORPGs, but don't know how I lived without it in NWN. :)
