PickItem

Setup an ItemList using ShowItemList with the parameters sent in Dialogue mode which can get handled by SetText after the ItemList goes inactive.

Syntax

(1)

|pickitem,type,redirect,cancel|

(2)

|pickitem,type,storeid,desc,sell,redirect,cancel|

(3)

|pickitem,type,storeid,desc,sell,redirect,cancel,ammount|

Parameters

type: int

The listtype. This must be a valid int value or an exception will be thrown. For more information on how each value behaves, consult the listtype document.

redirect: int

The listredirect. This must be a valid int value or an exception will be thrown. This is the desired Dialogue line id to redirect when the ItemList is confirmed. There are special values that can be specified which are exceptions to this:

• null: No redirection, just run the post ItemList handler.
• -1: This acts like null.
• -2: No redirection, but assume in the post ItemList handler that this an items was selected to be tossed after a additemtoss command. By this point, the selected item id must be in flagvar 1 and the original item passed in additemtoss to be in flagvar 0. The caller (which is assumed to be the item above the player's Entity) will have its appearance set to the selected item. It will get tossed in a random direction and disappear after 600 frames. This will also remove the selected item id from the inventory of the itemtype sent to additemtoss (which is now the listtype) and it will add the item id sent to additemtoss in that same inventory.
• -3: No redirection, same as -2, but assume that we are tossing the same item sent to additemtoss which means everything happens the same way except the inventory operations and the change of the caller's appearance.

-2 and -3 should never be sent outside of an additemtoss context or undefined behaviors will occur.

cancel: int

The listcancel. This must be a valid int value or an exception will be thrown. This works the same way than redirect, but the value will only become the outcome in the post ItemList handler if the list has been cancelled.

storeid: int

The storeid. This must be a valid int value or an exception will be thrown. The default value is 0.

desc: true | false

The listdesc. This must be equal to true or false without case sensitivity or an exception will be thrown. The default value is true.

sell: true | false

The listsell. This must be equal to true or false without case sensitivity or an exception will be thrown. The default value is false.

amount: int

The listammount. This must be a valid int value or an exception will be thrown. The default value is 5.

Remarks

This command will first reset multiselect to a new list and an inputcooldown of 5 frames is applied. It will then set all the ItemList State Machine fields mentioned above to each of their respective parameter value.

After, it will call ShowItemList with type as the type, (4.0, 0.5) as the position, listdesc as the showdescription and listsell as the sell.

This command requires Dialogue mode otherwise, SetText will not wait for the ItemList to finish processing and as such, it will not get handled.

Post ItemList handler

After the call is made, the regular ItemList system kicks in just like it would without SetText. For more information on how this system and its state machine works, consult the ItemList document. The key difference is SetText will handle the outcome of the ItemList which is listredirect in the case of a confirmation and listcancel in the case of a cancellation. This is done in 2 parts during the ItemList handling

Additionally, if -2 or -3 was the outcome, end is set to true, listredirect is set to null, an actioncooldown of 30 frames is applied and eventcall is set to the one determined from the additemtoss command processing.
