Developer question: creating a permanent item

I am trying to make a simple item for store.

My question is, how to check if the a client have a item? and how to save the item for the client (permanently)? I think as below but I am not sure :?

My plugin

PHP Code:


		
			
#include <sourcemod>
#include <sdktools>
#include <store>

new bool:g_databaseInitialized = false;
new bool:g_watergun[MAXPLAYERS+1] = {false, ...};

public OnPluginStart()
{
    LoadTranslations("store.phrases");
    Store_RegisterItemType("TheWatergun", OnWatergunUse);

    HookEvent("player_hurt", Event_PlayerHurt);
}



public Store_OnDatabaseInitialized()
{
    g_databaseInitialized = true;
}

public OnClientPostAdminCheck(client)
{
    if (!g_databaseInitialized)
        return;
        
    g_watergun[client] = false;
    Store_GetEquippedItemsByType(Store_GetClientAccountID(client), "TheWatergun", Store_GetClientLoadout(client), OnGetPlayerWatergun, GetClientSerial(client)); // a category only for watergun :p
}

public OnGetPlayerWatergun(ids[], count, any:serial) // callback
{
    new client = GetClientFromSerial(serial);
    
    if (client == 0)
        return;
        
    
    for (new index = 0; index < count; index++)
    {
        decl String:itemName[32];
        Store_GetItemName(ids[index], itemName, sizeof(itemName));
        
        if ( StrEqual(itemName,"watergun") ) // if the client have item named watergun ??
            g_watergun[client] = true; // now he have watergun
    }
}

public Action:Event_PlayerHurt(Handle:event,const String:name[],bool:dontBroadcast)
{
    new client = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(event, "userid"));
    new attacker = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(event, "attacker"));
    
    if(IsValidClient(client) && IsValidClient(attacker) && g_watergun[attacker])
    {
        SetVariantString("WaterSurfaceExplosion");
        AcceptEntityInput(client, "DispatchEffect");
    }
}

public OnLibraryAdded(const String:name[])
{
    if (StrEqual(name, "store-inventory"))
    {
        Store_RegisterItemType("watergun", OnWatergunUse);
    }   
}

public IsValidClient( client ) 
{ 
    if ( !( 1 <= client <= MaxClients ) || !IsClientInGame(client) ) 
        return false; 
     
    return true; 
}


// This will be called when players use our item in their inventory.
public Store_ItemUseAction:OnWatergunUse(client, itemId, bool:equipped)
{    
    if (equipped)
    {
    
        decl String:displayName[STORE_MAX_DISPLAY_NAME_LENGTH];
        Store_GetItemDisplayName(itemId, displayName, sizeof(displayName));
        
        PrintToChat(client, "%s%t", STORE_PREFIX, "Unequipped item", displayName);
        return Store_UnequipItem;
    }
    else
    {
        
        decl String:displayName[STORE_MAX_DISPLAY_NAME_LENGTH];
        Store_GetItemDisplayName(itemId, displayName, sizeof(displayName));
        
        PrintToChat(client, "%s%t", STORE_PREFIX, "Equipped item", displayName);
        return Store_EquipItem;
    }
}

I am not sure if this works but at least compile well xD tell me if there are errors, is supposed that exist a category called "TheWatergun" and the item called "watergun"

Re: Developer question: creating a permanent item

There's one thing you should change: In Store_GetEquippedItemsByType the 2nd parameter is the type name, not the category. That's also true for Store_RegisterItemType. Type name is a lowered-case, no spaces, and maximum 32 characters string. Change it to watergun, and also change it in the web panel (In edit item, change the item type to watergun).

Oh, and add

Code:

g_watergun[client] = equipped;

to your OnWatergunUse callback.

I'll write a tutorial for creating permanent items soon.

Ok, now my item works well and I understand better how to add items :)

but

Code:

g_watergun[client] = equipped;

will not work correctly because would be reversed because when you take it off the booleand are reversed to as is wanted.

As appreciation I share my article that I created I had to create a new category to add items.

I have also added a simple tracers item.

"alongub" you can check my plugin and tell me if all is fine? surely I will make more items :)

Added: this plugin is working in my servers

Re: Developer question: creating a permanent item

yeah, it looks great
