Items Not Adding to Inventory

[Nostrildumbass]

Hi, I’m breaking it because my ‘Inventory’ variable is an array of ‘Sub-Inventory’ structures, rather than an array of items themselves, these sub-inventory structures have the array of ‘Item’ structures in them along with other sub-inventory specific variables. It’s for streamlining making the inventory UI mainly, I want my inventory to be split into categories, such as ‘Weapons’, ‘Equipment’, ‘Consumables’, etc…, and each one of them has a list of items pertaining to that sub-inventory. This way I can set limits on individual sub-inventories, like for example consumables I don’t want an inventory limit, but weapons I would limit to 8 for example, but yeah, in short it’s just because the item location is an array inside another array of structures

And as for the ‘Set Array Elem’, I used that node in the second attempt picture, but it changed nothing. It’s also being used in the part commented “Add quantity if item is stackable and player already has one”, and that one doesn’t do anything either.

I see. I wanted to have separate management of my different types of items as well, but I ended up making different inventories within my main inventory component for that, and it’s working pretty nicely (so, I have arrays for AmmoInventory, PrimaryWeaponInventory, SecondaryWeaponInventory, HealingInventory, etc. It sounds like a headache to manage but it’s not bad at all and I wanted it this way to have full flexibility to re-design the UI for each category any time I want to). My UI is fairly simple too.

Quick question, in that “Get” that you have there from the Inventory array, are you using Get Ref rather than Get Copy? If you’re using Get Copy, you might be adding to that “dummy copy”. Not sure if I’m right on that, just something to look at! https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/…opy/index.html
