Inventory tossable?

[Barbie]

Is there any method to decide if an inventory is tossable? (Worst case would be using a white- or blacklist.)

[ExpEM]

In the base Inventory class, no.
Pickup class also no.
Weapon class has bCanThrow.

What are you trying to do?

Players should be able to toss some inventory things like Scuba or Flashlight. Also they should drop some (random) inventory items on death.

Look at Pinata mutator. It throws all items including Flashlight.

Thanks, but that mutator drops everything that is not Ammo. (For example I realized personal light as an inventory item and that should never be dropped.)

True, pinata doesn't drop ammo... but every weapon it does drop has as much ammo in it that it had when it was still held.

[ExpEM]

Are you talking about a drop on death sort of thing or a drop with KeyBind sort of thing?
Looks like both, if you can give us a full detailed explanation of what you want then we would be better able to assist.

Thanks for all comments. I'll try with a blacklist:

Code: Select all

var config string	NoneTossableInventory[8]; // format: <Packagename.classname>, e.g. "Botpack.Pulsegun" (I've chosen "string", because the outer name may contain illegal name characters)

function bool InventoryIsTossable(Inventory Inv) {
local byte i;

	if (Weapon(Inv) != None)
		return Weapon(Inv).bCanThrow;

	if (Ammo(Inv) != None)
		return false;

	for (i = 0; i < ArrayCount(NoneTossableInventory); i++)
		if (NoneTossableInventory[i] != "" )
			if (NoneTossableInventory[i] ~= String(Inv.Class))
				return false;

	return true;
}

FIX: changed "(string(Inv.Class.Outer) $ "." $ String(Inv.Class))" to "String(Inv.Class)"
