[mod] Inventory Plus [unknown version] [inventory_plus]

This is a simple plugin, which adds the ability for other plugins to add buttons for other menu pages to the player formspec. The original design is by Cornernote, but I'm maintaining it now.

New features include a more user friendly interface for players (the crafting grid displays at the same time as the buttons) and a removal of redundancy created in the creative inventory page in Minetest 0.4.4.

Folks,could you please take a look at the following bug:

Bug occures when player try to login to the server. Minetest 0.4.4

11:18:39: ACTION[ServerThread]: zZz joins game. List of players: zZz
11:18:39: ERROR[main]: ERROR: An unhandled exception occurred: ServerError: LuaError: error: ...est/world_minetest/worldmods/inventory_plus/init.lua:72: bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil)

This error isn't happening on my copy of 0.4.4.

What other plugins do you have installed? Perhaps inventory_plus isn't playing nicely with another plugin.

Yep, looks like. I'll try check which mod is incompotible with inventory_plus.

If you figure it out, let me know so I can fix inventory_plus if possible. Or, you could post a list of plugins you use, and I'll find the problem.

It sounds strange, but error occures with only inventory_plus in worldmods.

~/mtest$ ls ./world_minetest/worldmods/
inventory_plus

Line #72 from init.lua:


Is it possible that at the moment of getting player name, core (minetest) doesn't know it?

UPD#1: No, core know it :

----cut form modyfied init.lua-----


---- cut from output-----


So as for me we have non-initialyzed buttons list.

end this code is not executing:

---cut from init.lua start from line#21

When I move inventory_plus to worldmods, I still don't have the problem. Can you post a list of plugins you are using please?

Sure, sorry.

unified_inventory does not work with inventory_plus. also if you decide to keep unified_inventory delete the creative mod in the default folder.

Yes, that's the issue.

unified_inventory is great, but it takes over the entire menu. No other menu-based plugins can be used with it. In truth, inventory_plus does the same thing, but it also provides an API for adding new menu pages.

when i use a mod like specialties or armor when ever i press a button that has an action it always sends me back to the creative menu.

jojoa1997 wrote:when i use a mod like specialties or armor when ever i press a button that has an action it always sends me back to the creative menu.

That's an incompatibility between those plugins and creative. Those plugins SHOULD call inventory_plus.set_inventory_formspec() to set the formspec when the buttons are used, but it sounds like they are either calling player:set_inventory_formspec() directly or not setting the formspec at all, assuming it is already set. When creative mode is turned off, that works fine, but when creative mode s turned on, creative tries to hog the menu.

Report this in the specialties / armor topics, as I can't fix it on my end. Those plugins will need to be fixed themselves.

The file downloaded as a file, not a zipped folder. I tried to make a folder for it named "inventory_plus" but I don't know how to make an "init.lua". The mod should be in a zipped folder form in the fist place anyway.

It's a tar.gz. A decent archiver will do the trick. On Windows (I assume you are using Windows), 7-zip is the best one around IMO.

By a "zipped folder", do you mean a .zip file? A .zip file is as much a file as anything else is.

Yeah, if you're not on an operating system that supports .tar.gz (Might I recommend Linux Mint or Ubuntu?), 7-zip will do the trick.

Ehm, i use 7-zip and i have to unpack it twice. First .gz, then .tar.

On Linux, you're only a tar -xvzf file.tar.gz away.

How do I save it as a 7-zip?

J-Block wrote:How do I save it as a 7-zip?

You can't. You save it as a .tar.gz, and use the 7-zip application to open the .tar.gz.

First, let me say nice work on the mod. My girlfriend and I love it.

HOWEVER! There is a small visual glitch and another small glitch.

The visual glitch is the "refill" box is scrambled (the word not the box).

The other one is, it does not look like the pics. It flashes at that and the goes almost normal.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

The refill box glitch is caused by using the wrong version of inventory_plus. Use version 20120917.1, not version 20120917.0, and it should be fixed.

What pictures? I didn't include pictures.

Does the flashing only happen in creative mode? If yes, it's not something I can fix. The creative mode menu fights to take control, then inventory_plus takes over. The slight delay between the two causes the flash you see.

Can you post a .zip download for the latest version please?

You can extract the archive using any decent archiver. A good example is 7-zip.

The download is 404-ing.

Recently, it looks like 0gb.us had a hard disk failure.

Hmm. I just realized that means I lost all the plugins I built. They're all gone, my only copy was on the hard drive that blew.

EDIT: Does anyone have a copy of the latest version of this? I'd love to get it back online.

GitHub?
Always
It'd be a good idea to always push to something on github, so you always have a backup.

I hadn't even started with Github at that point. I use it now, but not back then.

Also, Github is a bit of a pain to work with, particularly the uploading and deleting. I wouldn't want to use it for a small project lie this, it would require a bunch of nested directories on my computer, just to get around Github's renaming tenancies. Why can't it just leave the directory names as you set them?

Anyway, I should have had a backup copy. I realize this is my own fault. However, Github isn't a great fit for me. Backing up to my other computer would be a better option.

Speaking of which, I believe I do have a backup of this, it's just on my misplaced USB flash drive. I should have moved it to my other computer. My mistake. Hopefully someone has a copy of this we can use, but if not, we'll just have to wait for the flash drive to turn up.

EDIT: It's also a pain to rename files. There really should be a web interface for all of this.

here is one. it is my copy and i dont know if it is the most recent or if i have not edited it but here it is. https://github.com/jojoa1997/0gb.us-repo

Awesome, thanks Jojoa!

I think the only difference between that version and the up to date version is that we had to delete the trash slot added by inventory_plus, due to creative incorporating the trash slot into the default game.

Come to think of it, we should now also remove the refill slot, as it is pointless in 0.4.5. I'll fork it and make the changes.

After that, I'll probably do a full rewrite. Unfortunately, this will break compatibility a bit, but it will give better options and allow me to add it to 0gb.us_game, where it will be maintained on Github, and be kept up to date. Currently, there's a licence incompatibility, but a rewrite should fix that.

EDIT: Maybe a rewrite wouldn't be advisable ....

EDIT: It looks like maybe you had a copy where I already removed the trash slot? I just didn't do it very cleanly ....
