Console Command

[Gekido2802]

My friend and I used a mod, I gave him an item from the mod but even if he got the mod activated , he can't see the item, he can't use it but it still there and he got problem with the slot the item is in. So is there a command I can use to remove an Item from his slot?

 

Thanks for future reply!

@Gekido2802, in your custom item make sure you have inst.entity:AddNetwork() otherwise it won't show up on the clients side properly.

I think this needs more info. What specific Item? Mod name? Was the item spawned in by host or by a client? etc.

Well thanks for the info ^^ but my question was more if there was a command I could enter into the command console to remove an item from someone slot?

@Gekido2802, you can try the following in the console.

 

for _,v in ipairs(AllPlayers) do v.components.inventory:RemoveItem("PREFAB NAME HERE") end

 

This will remove all the items of that prefab's name from all players. Alternatively you could simply disable the mod.

I added the inst.entity:AddNetwork() into the fn function, idk if there was a specific place to put it, well tell me if I'm wrong.

Now my friend's client show a "attemp to index field "inventoryitem" (a nil value)" error message

@Gekido2802, without seeing the code, many people wouldn't be able to help you. It sounds like you need the following code before any component though.

 

if not TheWorld.ismastersim then

    return inst

end

@Gekido2802, Can you show us the prefab file? That suggests that the positioning of code around "if not TheWorld.ismastersim then return inst end" is wrong.

@rezecib, or it's missing entirely. It seems that the tutorials new modders are using does not have that in them.

You're right I don't have it cuase I didn't find any tutorial with that :/

 

Where do I put the

 

if not TheWorld.ismastersim then

    return inst

end 

 

and what does it do?

 

Thanks for future reply! ^^

@Gekido2802, Well, whenever you're making anything for a mod, you should always start by copying over the most similar thing from the game's files. So if you're making an equippable item, start by copying over spear.lua or something. That way you don't have to worry so much about missing crucial stuff like if not TheWorld.ismastersim.

 

Edit: I talked about this approach in my guide, which is pinned at the top of this subforum. But I'm editing it right now to make sure it's clearer and I cover the new things in prefabs specifically.

Thanks guys.

 

I fixed the problem adding :

 

inst.entity:AddNetwork()

 

if not TheWorld.ismastersim then

    return inst

end

 

and some other things that was in the game files but not in mine 

 

@rezecib, your tutorial is very well explained , it helped me a lots. Thanks

 

@Kzisor, for the command to remove an item from a player slot I used :

 

for k,v in ipairs(AllPlayers) do

    if v.name == "PLAYER NAME HERE" then 

        v.components.inventory:RemoveItemBySlot("SLOT NUMBER HERE") 

    end

end

 

Thanks a lot for the help!
