CanReceive func

[Money]

hmm i'm having a little trouble making a baldric/sheath for weapons, my first time doing any kind of coding lol

Basically i want it so that the baldric can only store 1 weapon of a specific type, i have achieved making the baldric only store blade type weapons, however i can't seem to restrict it to only 1.

It would also be great if someone could tell me how i can get started on making short/long name of the baldric change when a weapon is stored in it.

Thanks in advance!

*EDIT*

ok i changed the code to

Code: [Select]

#include <lib.h>
#include <armor_types.h>
#include <damage_types.h>
inherit LIB_WORN_STORAGE;

static void create(){
    ::create();
    SetKeyName("baldric");
    SetAdjectives( ({"leather"}) );
    SetId( ({"baldric"}) );
    SetShort("a leather baldric");
    SetLong("A light yet sturdy looking sword baldric.");
    SetCanClose(1);
    SetMaxCarry(100);
    SetMass(200);
    SetBaseCost("silver",10);
    SetDamagePoints(100);
    SetArmorType(A_PANTS);
    SetProtection(COLD, 1);

}

int CanReceive(object ob)
{
return ::CanReceive(ob)
    && ( sizeof(all_inventory(this_object())) < 1 )
    && ( ob->GetWeaponType() == "blade");
}

void init(){
    worn_storage::init();
   
}

and the restrictions are working, so how would i get the weapon to change its description when a sword is in it?

Code: [Select]

if( sizeof(all_inventory(this_object())) < 1 ){
            write ("This baldric is full");
            return 0;
        }
This says "if the number of things in this object is less than one,
don't let anything else in here."

That is probably not what you want.

ignore initial the edit above this code works thanks to crat pointing out my function didnt make sense

Code: [Select]

#include <lib.h>
#include <armor_types.h>
#include <damage_types.h>
inherit LIB_WORN_STORAGE;

static void create(){
    ::create();
    SetKeyName("baldric");
    SetAdjectives( ({"leather"}) );
    SetId( ({"baldric"}) );
    SetShort("a leather baldric");
    SetLong("A light yet sturdy looking sword baldric.");
    SetCanClose(1);
    SetMaxCarry(100);
    SetMass(200);
    SetBaseCost("silver",10);
    SetDamagePoints(100);
    SetArmorType(A_PANTS);
    SetProtection(COLD, 1);

}

mixed CanReceive(object ob){
    if(ob->GetWeaponType() != "blade") {
      write ("You can only store swords in here.");
      return 0;
      }
        if( sizeof(all_inventory(this_object())) >= 1 ){
            write ("this shit is full");
            return 0;
        }
    return 1;
}
void init(){
    worn_storage::init();
   
}
