Inventory Engine Advice

[Dmangames]

Hi,

I'm trying to integrate inventory engine and I've run into a few issues.

1. Persistent Inventory throws this error

Code: Select all

Under Saved Data Variable Name I have MainInventory and I created a variable in the Dialogue System called MainInventory which is a files type.

2. Also I am having difficulty getting my test item to show up in the Inventory Display. I can't seem to get the UI to update and I frequently run into an Arguement out of range exception if I try to add the Test Item then remove it.

I know this isn't necessarily under the Dialogue System's jurisdiction but any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

1. Persistent Inventory throws this error

Inventory Engine's API changed recently, requiring an update to the support package. This updated support package will be in 2.0.3, which is releasing very soon: InventoryEngine_Support_2018-07-31.unitypackage

2. Also I am having difficulty getting my test item to show up in the Inventory Display.

Here are some things to check:

• Make sure the item asset is in a Resources folder, inside a subfolder named "Items".
• Assign the Prefab Drop > Prefab.
• Make sure Target Inventory Name exactly matches your player's inventory name.
• Check the Console window / output log for any warnings to errors.
