Inventory screen made easy
Just created an inventory screen that i wanted to share, it was much easier than i thought...

You need a grid that you use to split the screen, i made mine in GIMP.

You need images of whatever you what to be able to add to the inventrory. size to fit the grid...

Create the inventory screen as a new scene (i put mine in the GUI folder), use the grid as a back ground.

Add the images that you want to be able to pick up to the inventory screen ( put them in a slot on a layer over the background )

Create variables/switches for each item and use a "condition" function to control if the image is visible or not. This is placed on the inventory screen (for each item).

Functions on the invetory screen (apart from the cinditions) are

- Change backgroound (the grid)

- wait for input (use "left button pressed")

- previous scene (function)

*********************************************************

Create a common event (database) and add the change scene function (set the save previous to yes)

To each scene (major draw back) you must add:

- an image that you want to use to represent the invetory (a button),

- a hotspot that covers the i image

Set the hot spot to run the common event

These can be re-used so only create once and copy past!


DONE!

Hope it helps someone! If anything is unclear just ask!!
