Action RPG Inventory System

[Pirate]

After a lot of cursing, and rooting around, I was finally able to get all instances of Amount byte switched over to Integers. So I can now give out more cash. I then created a new item that, like the single coin item, gives money. I cannot, however, figure how to have it give me more than 1 gold. Anyone else figure out how to change that? Altering the item list to a higher amount number does not seem to work. I’ve also (somewhat) successfully added a custom highlighter that changes the outline color to gold if it is money. I may try to integrate it into rarity. Next step will be getting rid of the crosshair and having the system work via mouseover events and/or collision for ease of use; like the Action RPG Inventory w/ MP TopDown Kit Video.

If anyone figures anything out, let me know. If I can get things figured out we can trade notes. Thanks again for all the help Pirate!

The Item Amount set in your World_Actor child blueprint should be the amount you pickup, I’ll test that again to make sure it’s not a bug.

Also for the Multiplayer TopDown Kit mouse select.
Both systems use the same UsableInterface so they have very similar logic in the PlayerController for the functions OnActorUsed(), GetUsableActor(), GetUsableActorFocus().
The biggest difference in the MPTopDownKit is that we have setup a new TraceChannel called Clickable. This allows us to cast from the Mouse cursor (Look at the Unreal TopDown Project for a simple example of click to move) and only hit things we set to be clickable. Then we check to make sure the actor we hit implements the UsableInterface which lets us know that this item has the function OnUsed() (just like we do in the Inventory System).
