Ok this is very annoying. I cant seem to get it right and anyone who tries to help gives me advice for DBP.

I have DBC. I want my item menu to work just like any real game item menu. I want it so when you actually have the item its in the menu and when you use it all it disappears from the menu.

I also want to know how to, say I have a sword in my item menu. I want to click it and then it will equip in the equipment menu, and also disappear from the item menu, and vise-versa.

How do I do all this?
Its some kind of stacking code right? Thats what they call it for DBP I think.

Thanks for the help

I'd have a coordinate system, whereby the location of each object, in 3D is stored in an array, and when you collect an item, it's position is set to -1,-1,-1. Now when you collect an item, you simply change it's location. You can use one of the locations as a slot number indicator, so you could have all inventory items at -1,-1,-1 and all equiped items at -1,-1,0 for example. To drop an item, simply set the location array to the current player position.

Or use negative numbers to represent empty slots.
