Need help with item containers inventory

Lu7z

I am using a very old ATS tradeskill build in a module. However I have an issue where sometimes a duplicate token box that stores the information of the player skills appears in the inventory but empty. So the player would have a correct box container with tokens and a second undroppable box that is completely empty. I wish to add to my OnClientEnter script a section that removes all empty boxes upon login. I just don't know how to target only the empty container boxes in a players inventory.

The tag of the item container that need checking and removing is "ATS_SKILLBOX_NOD"

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Something like this should work for ya. Tested it a bit. Recommend doing your own test as well. I don't want to delete all your players stuff.

void main()
{
    object oPC = GetEnteringObject();
    object oItem = GetFirstItemInInventory(oPC);
    while(GetIsObjectValid(oItem))
    {
        if (GetTag(oItem) == "ATS_SKILLBOX_NOD")
        {
            object oCheck = GetFirstItemInInventory(oItem);
            if (!GetIsObjectValid(oCheck))
            {
                DestroyObject(oItem);
                return;
            }
        }
        oItem = GetNextItemInInventory(oPC);
    }
}

One caveat. This will run every time a player enters unless you add a "do once" variable. Whether that be in a database or item is up to you. Just let me know if you need further help with that.

Thanks so much! After fiddling around with delaying when the script runs it seems to be working as I had hoped. Again thank you.

I am also happy it runs every relog. For some reason, buried somewhere in the ATS scripts its pushing two boxes into the players inventory every time a player relogs instead of only the one.

Also this script is super helpful because now I know how to target an empty item container in a player inventory!
