[FEATURE REQUEST] API for adding/removing inventory

[svizzari]

Hi guys -- First off, I think you've done a great job with existing OpenSpace functionality.

I do think, however, that adding some API to allow direct interaction with a map outside of the drop/drag mechanism would be great.

This might be something like:

Code: Select all

OpenSpace.addInventoryItem(itemId:String, coords:Position3D, tileInstName:String, tileTriggers:Array, params:Array, broadcast:Boolean = true):Boolean;
OpenSpace.removeInventoryItem(itemId:String, coords:Position3D):Sprite;

where the final broadcast argument, when adding, would determine whether other clients were updated.

The suggested code above is pretty rough but I'm sure you get the idea.

Thank you for the suggestion. We will evaluate it for future releases.

Hi Bax -- should I have posted this in the feature requests forum? It didn't seem like a SFS request per se.

It would definitely be helpful in my situation to have API methods like those I outlined.

Posting here is fine. We added your request to our management system and evaluate later.
