Dynamically created objects

Is object created in game by objCreate function automatically stored in Memx containers for objects for example to Items container? How can I get it to single Item item; variable? Bu id or something?

yes, it gets stored, unless it gets flushed to disk (please check comments on objCreate)

you should use objCreateNear if you want to access created object as it returns pointer to the object

Ok, thanks. When I'll have got free time I'll check this. But now I use this code:

Code:

Game::ObjParams &obj=*Game::Objs(itemPath); // get weapon object parameters

    Game::World.objCreate(obj,Matrix(obj.scale(),waypoint->point(targetNumber).pos));    // create new object

    item=&Items[Items.validElms()-1]; // save last item from container to Item variable

Is it ok? Or has it any disadvantages?

that's bad
you should use objCreateNear

I use objCreateNear and asign result to Game::Obj variable, but I can't assign it to Item. Is it possible?

Code:

Item *item = CAST(Item, obj);

This should work I believe.

Yes it works, thank you.

One more question. How can I check that I have grabbed item on the list or in slot. I don't mean any object but the specific one. For example I created object which is one of targets in mission, and I want check if it is in my inventory.

**Esenthel** · 11-12-2010 07:10 PM

add a unique parameter to it.

Harry · 11-12-2010 08:47 PM

Ok, I thought that there is another way.
