This plugin for No More Room in Hell adds portable inventory boxes to the game. They function just like normal inventory boxes except they also pick up items that are dropped on top of them. Punching one will place it on your back and allow you to carry it around the level.

Backpacks are able to store more ammo than a regular inventory box. By default backpacks store up to 4 boxes worth of ammo per slot. This means one slot holds 4 barricade boards or 40 rounds of 9mm or 80 rounds of .22.

Backpacks are randomly coloured to help distinguish them.

Hi, it seems like sm_backpack_ammos_per_slot is does not exist.

Great plugins btw, especially QOL, this brings new life to nmrih
----------
PS

You should realy make an option to disallow regular players to pick it up.

Something like

sm_allow_players_to_pick_up_backack 1

and

sm_allow_platyers_to_open_backpack 1

And thanks again for your amazing work, your plugins is awesome
-----------
Lol, i'v found this cvar, it's actully

sm_backpack_ammo_stack_limit

[Ryan.]

Thanks for the feedback, Flammable. I've updated the readme and main post so they use the actual cvar name, sm_backpack_ammo_stack_limit

Version 1.1 is ready and it includes your suggestions: sm_backpack_only_admins_can_wear and sm_backpack_only_admins_can_open. If either one is true then non-admin players will never spawn with a backpack.

[Flammable]

Thanks for making my suggestion out, new cvars works fine at me. btw, lifehack, if you wanna set specific backpack so noone can grab it, and other backpacks can be grabbed you can set it invulnerable using plugin ent control

I want to ask you if you take sourcemod plugins requests.. you see, i have quite unusual nmrih server, and few plugins would improve it soo much. The thing is, we always have waves like 50 or 60 or even 90, and we always store our supplies. We play from wave 1 to wave 50, and everytime we leave server, i SAVE all our weapons and ammo, by writing it down on paper. Next time i want to play, i load up wave 50 with same exact ammo i had before, and it's all work great to me BUT.

In order to spawn ammo i always have to.. spawn a weapon, then turn infinite ammo on, then unload it couple of times, and then drop same amount of ammo we had before ._.

It would be soo cool, if you make plugin that allows to set specific amount of ammo in player's inventory. Such as:

sm_setammo @me ammobox_45acp 500 (set's 500 45acp bullets in my inventory)
sm_setammo @all ammobox_357 10 (set's everyone's 357 bullets in inventory)

and if player have over 10 357 bullet's it removes the rest and set exactly to 10.

Can you make it?

ps even if it's impossible to SET ammo, GIVE specific amount already can make our lifes so much easer.
---
And second plugin is just..

"sm_set_item_inventory_box_model" "models/props/custom_box.mdl"

I already managed to change it's model, but i had to edit server.dll, which is you know, too hard and tricky, sometimes i wish i can have smaller or bigger inventory_boxes.
---
Sorry if i post it in wrong section, anyway, thanks for you amazing work, backpack plugin is awesome, and easy to edit, to meet the needs of the server. And plugin QoL, is just fire

[Ryan.]

I'm occupied with projects right now but I think both of your ideas are possible.

The save/restore system essentially exists in QOL for its /skaterboy command. Players are respawned and all their previous loot is returned to them (including ammo). It's just a matter of writing the loot to a file and allowing it be loaded with a command. QOL doesn't save non-player entities though so all unequipped items, med-boxes and supply drops would be lost.

The second plugin sounds trivial to implement using SDKHooks. Hook item_inventory_box's spawn and then call SetEntityModel. If you're comfortable modifying server.dll this may be a relatively simple first plugin to build.

Unfortunality I'm not sourcemod codder at all. I had alot of expirience writing plugins for simple games like doom, i'm very good at editing nmrih scripts and all, but when i said that backpack plugin is easy to edit.. I just changed both models on floor and on back, and got rid of colorizing, also changed few sounds, because my backpack is metall box.



And that's it, i can't write even simple plugin. So I can only count on you to make requested plugins. If you are too busy, i aint telling you to drop everything and do it lol, we can live without this plugins, it's just plugins that improve our gaming expirience (our quality of life lol), and it's totally fine for me to wait till you decide that you have time for someone's request. You already improved nmrih more then anyone else.

Hello Ryan!
Firstly - I express the HUGE gratitude to you for your plugins, which cardinally changes the game for the better. Thank you.
Secondly - I wanted to ask something about this (BackPack) plugin. And suggest how to improve it.
I paid attention to the file, backpack.cfg, where I saw that every thing has its own category. I began to experiment, and I achieved that, for example, pills can be placed in the category of "weapons",or in any category, if you put the item "none". Next, I opened a file backpack.sp, in which I found several parameters, such as:
#define ITEMBOX_MAX_SLOTS 8
#define ITEMBOX_MAX_GEAR 4
I modified the parameter ITEMBOX_MAX_SLOTS, put the number 20 (as many cells in the bag). The problem is that if an item (any thing, except ammo) falls into the Ammo category, its name changes: Pills to #item_pills_short. (sks to #fa_sks_short, etc.).
Moreover, such an object, if you take it, you will get emptiness - literally.
What do I change in the file backpack.sp to make it possible to use all the cells in the bag? This would be useful, for example, in order to create boxes with only medicines, or only weapons.
By the way, my friend Flammable knows about my problem, and gave a link to another of your plug-in (Supply Chances), more precisely, to the phrase "The weapon and gear categories are interchangeable; weapon and medical items can appear in either. The ammo category is handled differently by the game and should be restricted to just ammo types".
In this case, can it not be done so that the bag contains only weapons and medicines, but does not lose the number of cells (or even better so that the number of cells is adjustable).
If there is no way to do this to me - could you update this plugin by adding this functionality? Would be very grateful.

Hey, Ryan, first of all your latest changes in Supply Chances work great, thank you for updating it, you can check this out how cool could it be, (first few moments in video).

But I'v found a bug about backpacks... You see, gear and weapons is not compatible. When any firearm get's into gear selection, it will give the wrong ammo. Well, just see the video and you will understand. But maybe it was not in your plans to make it possible to store 12 weapons instead of 8. Just letting you know that this issue exist, and players are not able to use gear for firearms

https://youtu.be/ERJq_TDJp-I

PS

There is no such bug in Supply Chances, even if you put firearms in gear selection correct ammo will be given

Quite a bit would have to be changed since it essentially tries to mimic vanilla inventory boxes. It was built with the assumption that each item has a specific category it belongs to. As you've seen, the game doesn't like when ammo and weapons mix; names don't appear correctly and items become unobtainable.

Sourcemod can make items obtainable and the names can be fixed by adding to your resources/nmrih_<language>.txt

PHP Code:

"weapon_ammobox_9mm_short" "9mm" // Add 9mm name for weapons category
"item_pills_short" "Pills"       // Add pills name for ammo category 


ITEMBOX_MAX_SLOTS and MAX_GEAR are hardcoded limits. Increasing them beyond their original value can lead to memory stomping. The backpack's inventory space could be extended beyond 20 cells using separate memory but this would lead to some difficult usability questions (UI).

Fixed in newest version. Thanks for spotting it.

[GEEEX221]

Hello again, Ryan.
As you said, I changed the name of things through this file (nmrih_russian.txt). Indeed, it corrected the incorrect name of the subject, found in the category of "ammo". But. Items remain unobtainable.
Question. Why did not the replacement change help in the file (nmrih_russian.txt), or how to make sure that the sourcemod things happen obtainable?
