Hi all,

I would like that an item in my mod, "good meat", heal a little bit of HPs.  How should I do for the script to fire when I use the Item ?
I created a script, tried various events (event_type_use, event_type_unique_power...) but nothing happens.

Basically you need to set up a new ability for that item (by extending ABI_base with an ABI_yourstuff m2DA) and then select it in the "activated ability" field when editing the item resource in the toolset.

thzanks, but then, why is there a script line when you create a new item ?

A script line when a new item is created.
Hm. Not sure I get what you mean. ^_~
Ah !
The script attribute in the item resource ? Yeah, must be that. Sorry, I'm a bit slow between 3:22 and 3:24.

Well, that'd be the item event handler. But it's actually not used (dev explainations here) and it's not related to the items activated abilities. As a matter of fact, the event you were talking about ( EVENT_TYPE_USE ) is a placeable event, and not an item one.
The script fired by your item ability will be the one defined in the ABI_base m2DA entry for that ability.

Thanks a lot, Phaenan.

I tried to figure out how to simply create an item that could heal, say, 5-10 HP to the user.

The whole toolset is getting slowly on my nerves. I created mods in NWN and NWN2, and it wasn't such a pain to create simple objects like that.

Been playing with this myself today and looking at other people's code, I finally managed to created a clickable item that will display my location (location code made by jwvanderbeck)

What I ended up doing was in my module's main script I added a case for the event type EVENT_TYPE_UNIQUE_POWER in there I check if the event is created by my item

            object i = GetEventObject(ev,0);
            if (GetTag(i)=="yite_locator_ring")  // My item is yite_locator_ring.uti

And then do whatever I wanted to do (in my case throw the location on the screen) in your case do something with hitpoints i guess

Well, I actually used the same thing (EVENT_TYPE_UNIQUE_POWER) and that worked. But I wanted to have something more "portable" (not tied to module script) so I started messing with ABI_mystuff m2da. I created my ability ITEM_TELEPORT, my script attached to it. Gave my item the ability (base type quick item) and fired up the game. Everything went smoothly: Used the item, my script did what it's supposed to do...



BUT: My item's gone :/ So I start looking around and the wiki it states:



The number of uses for this ability will be decided by the script which will destroy the item when appropriate.



Well, I'm most certainly not destroying any items!



Any clues?
