Inventory Grid

My own installation has all its bindings in Darkmod.cfg; am I right in thinking default and user-preferred bindings aren't inherently distinct unless someone manually puts binds in an autoexec?

I'm not sure what you mean. User-preferred bindings take precedence over the defaults. I asked grayman how this worked last week, because we need to override default cvars for the fix to decals drawing over stuff. default.cfg is overridden by Darkmod.cfg which is overridden by autoexec.cfg. I think we overwrite darkmod.cfg at releases, but I'm not sure. darkmod.cfg is where console changes to settings are stored.

Oh, I see: default.cfg is inside tdm_base01.pk4.

 

What I was wondering was how existing installations would be affected by a new default for i (bound already by default) versus a new default for, say, #.

Some things I'm repeatedly thinking about...

Was wondering if it's possible to be able to drop items from the inventory grid?

I was thinking that you would move your mouse to highlight a grid item, then press the Drop key ("v" in my case), and the item would fall to the ground.

I always assumed I'd taste like boot leather.

Dropping currently puts things in your hands, which would be difficult to see/control if you have the grid up. Having it go straight from inventory to the ground would be a change to how it currently works. How would the player control where the object appears before dropping?

which screen levels does the inventory grid use, just wondering so that it doesn't clash with something am working on.

eg

overlayHandle = $player1.createOverlay("guis/dummy_esm.gui", 100 ); is what am currently using. if its higher than 100 i can easily change my script.

 

if you change the thing of objects going to go from inventory to ground, how do you manipulate things in the grabber if you want to use an item via the grabber as picking up stuff from the ground sticks it straight into the inventory. if you change it to objects dropped from inventory go straight to ground then you break a lot of maps that rely on the use of the grabber, this would include the training mission map, and the manipulation of that candlestick out of the cage.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.
