I woke up the other day and thought to myself, Goldeneye and Perfect Dark had a really great and simple inventory system for a first person shooter. Its a simple list system that you scroll through until you find the gun you want, equip, and go back to playing. I’m going to make that for my simple FPS project.
Now two days later and with my hairline receded about a centimeter further back, I’m totally lost on where to go from here.
The list view widget system seemed like what I was looking for but I sufficiently managed to completely confuse myself and can’t make heads or tails of it. Both of the YouTube tutorials I’ve found are pretty much the same “here is how to hard code a single item to appear” step by step. Maybe I need it explained to me like I’m a toddler or something?
I was wondering if anyone knew of a good tutorial that explains how to implement list view widget with an existing inventory system or a walkthrough on creating one from the ground up?
Or is this not the widget system I want at all? Am I better off just doing a scroll box with buttons appearing in a column?
