Inventory

Inventory is a CoreObject that represents a container of InventoryItems. Items can be added directly to an inventory, picked up from an ItemObject in the world, or transferred between inventories. An Inventory may be assigned to a Player, and Players may have any number of Inventories.

Properties

Property Name Return Type Description Tags
owner Player The Player who currently owns the inventory. May be nil. Change owners with Assign() or Unassign(). Read-Only
slotCount integer The number of unique inventory item stacks this inventory can hold. Zero or negative numbers indicate no limit. Read-Only
emptySlotCount integer The number of slots in the inventory that do not contain an inventory item stack. Read-Only
occupiedSlotCount integer The number of slots in the inventory that contain an inventory item stack. Read-Only

Functions

Function Name Return Type Description Tags
Assign(Player player) None Sets the owner property of the inventory to the specified player. When a networked inventory is assigned to a player, only that player's client will be able to access the inventory contents. None
Unassign() None Clears the owner property of the inventory. The given inventory will now be accessible to all clients. None
GetItem(integer slot) InventoryItem Returns the contents of the specified slot. Returns nil if the slot is empty. None
GetItems([table parameters]) table Returns a table mapping integer slot number to the inventory item in that slot. Note that this may leave gaps in the table if the inventory contains empty slots, so use with ipairs() is not recommended. Returns an empty table if the inventory is empty.
Supported parameters include:
itemAssetId (string): If specified, filters the results by the specified item asset reference. Useful for getting all inventory items of a specific type.
None
ClearItems() None Removes all items from the inventory. None
SortItems() None Reorganizes inventory items into sequential slots starting with slot 1. Does not perform any consolidation of item stacks of the same type. Use ConsolidateItems() first if this behavior is desired. None
ConsolidateItems() None Combines stacks of inventory items into as few slots as possible based on the maximumStackCount of each item. Slots may be emptied by this operation, but are otherwise not sorted or reorganized. None
CanResize(integer newSize) boolean Checks if there are enough slots for all current contents of the inventory if the inventory were to be resized. Returns true if the inventory can be resized to the new size or false if it cannot. None
Resize(integer newSize) boolean Changes the number of slots of the inventory. There must be enough slots to contain all of the items currently in the inventory or the operation will fail. This operation will move items into empty slots if necessary, but it will not consolidate item stacks, even if doing so would create sufficient space for the operation to succeed. Use ConsolidateItems() first if this behavior is desired. Returns true if the operation succeeded. Returns false and logs a warning if the operation failed. None
CanAddItem(string itemAssetId, [table parameters]) boolean Checks for room to add the specified item to this inventory. If the item can be added to the inventory, returns true. If the inventory is full or the item otherwise cannot be added, returns false. Supports the same parameters as AddItem(). None
AddItem(string itemAssetId, [table parameters]) boolean Attempts to add the specified item to this inventory. If the item was successfully added to the inventory, returns true. If the inventory was full or the item otherwise wasn't added, returns false.
Supported parameters include:
count (integer): Specifies the number of items to create and add to the inventory. Defaults to 1.
slot (integer): Attempts to create the item directly into the specified slot. If unspecified, the inventory will either look to stack this item with other items of the same itemAssetId, or will look to find the first empty slot.
customProperties (table): Applies initial property values to any dynamic properties on the item. Attempting to specify a property that does not exist will yield a warning. Attempting to specify a property that does exist and is not dynamic will raise an error. Providing a property value of the incorrect type will raise an error.
None
CanPickUpItem(ItemObject item, [table parameters]) boolean Checks for room in an existing stack or free inventory slots to add the given item to the inventory. If the item can be added to the inventory, returns true. If the inventory is full or the item otherwise cannot be added, returns false. Supports the same parameters as PickUpItem(). None
PickUpItem(ItemObject item, [table parameters]) boolean Creates an inventory item from an ItemObject that exists in the world, taking 1 count from the ItemObject. Destroys the ItemObject if the inventory item is successfully created and the ItemObject count has been reduced to zero. Returns true if the item was picked up. Returns false and logs a warning if the item could not be picked up.
Supported parameters include:
count (integer): Determines the number of items taken from the specified ItemObject. If the ItemObject still has a count greater than zero after this operation, it is not destroyed. Defaults to 1.
all (boolean): If true, picks up all of the given item's count instead of just 1. Overrides count if both are specified.
None
CanMoveFromSlot(integer fromSlot, integer toSlot, [table parameters]) boolean Checks if an item can be moved from one slot to another. If the item can be moved, returns true. Returns false if it cannot be moved. Supports the same parameters as MoveFromSlot(). None
MoveFromSlot(integer fromSlot, integer toSlot, [table parameters]) boolean Moves an inventory item and its entire count from one slot to another. If the target slot is empty, the stack is moved. If the target slot is occupied by a matching item, the stack will merge as much as it can up to its maximumStackCount. If the target slot is occupied by a non-matching item, the stacks will swap. Returns true if the operation succeeded. Returns false and logs a warning if the operation failed.
Supported parameters include:
count (integer): Specifies the number of items to move. When swapping with another stack containing a non-matching item, this operation will fail unless count is the entire stack.
None
CanRemoveItem(string itemAssetId, [table parameters]) boolean Checks if an item can be removed from the inventory. If the item can be removed, returns true. Returns false if it cannot be removed. Supports the same parameters as RemoveItem(). None
RemoveItem(string itemAssetId, [table parameters]) boolean Deletes 1 item of the specified asset from the inventory. Returns true if the operation succeeded. Returns false and logs a warning if the operation failed.
Supported parameters include:
count (integer): Specifies the number of the item to be removed. Defaults to 1.
all (boolean): If true, removes all of the specified items instead of just 1. Overrides count if both are specified.
None
CanRemoveFromSlot(integer slot, [table parameters]) boolean Checks if an item can be removed from an inventory slot. If the item can be removed, returns true. Returns false if it cannot be removed. Supports the same parameters as RemoveFromSlot(). None
RemoveFromSlot(integer slot, [table parameters]) boolean Deletes the inventory item and its entire count from the specified inventory slot. Returns true if the operation succeeded. Returns false and logs a warning if the operation failed.
Supported parameters include:
count (integer): Specifies the number of the item to be removed. Defaults to the total count in the specified slot.
None
CanDropItem(string itemAssetId, [table parameters]) boolean Checks if an item can be dropped from the inventory. If the item can be dropped, returns true. Returns false if it cannot be dropped. Supports the same parameters as DropItem(). None
DropItem(string itemAssetId, [table parameters]) boolean Removes 1 item of the specified asset from the inventory and creates an ItemObject with the item's properties. Spawns the ItemObject at the position of the inventory in the world, or at the position of the owner player's feet if the inventory has been assigned to a player. Returns true if the operation succeeded. Returns false and logs a warning if the operation failed.
Supported parameters include:
count (integer): Specifies the number of the item to be dropped. Defaults to 1.
all (boolean): If true, drops all of the specified items instead of just 1. Overrides count if both are specified.
dropTo (ItemObject): Specifies a pre-existing ItemObject to drop the items onto. Doing this will add to that ItemObject's count. If the ItemObject's maximum stack count would be exceeded by this operation, it will fail, and this function will return false.
parent (CoreObject): Creates the new ItemObject as a child of the specified CoreObject. Can only be used if dropTo is not specified.
position (Vector3): Specifies the world position at which the ItemObject is spawned, or the relative position if a parent is specified. Can only be used if dropTo is not specified.
rotation (Rotation or Quaternion): Specifies the world rotation at which the ItemObject is spawned, or the relative rotation if a parent is specified. Can only be used if dropTo is not specified.

DropFromSlot(integer slot, [table parameters]) boolean Drops the entire contents of a specified slot, creating an ItemObject with the item's properties. Spawns the ItemObject at the position of the inventory in the world, or at the position of the owner player's feet if the inventory has been assigned to a player. Returns true if the operation succeeded. Returns false and logs a warning if the operation failed. If the full item count is successfully dropped, the slot will be left empty.
Supported parameters include:
count (integer): Specifies the number of the item to be dropped. If not specified, the total number of items in this slot will be dropped.
dropTo (ItemObject): Specifies a pre-existing ItemObject to drop the items onto. Doing this will add to that ItemObject's count. If the ItemObject's max stack count would be exceeded by this operation, it will fail, and this function will return false.
parent (CoreObject): Creates the new ItemObject as a child of the specified CoreObject. Can only be used if dropTo is not specified.
position (Vector3): Specifies the world position at which the ItemObject is spawned, or the relative position if a parent is specified. Can only be used if dropTo is not specified.

Events

Event Name Return Type Description Tags
ownerChangedEvent Event<Inventory inventory> Fired when the inventory's owner has changed. None
resizedEvent Event<Inventory inventory> Fired when the inventory's size has changed. None
changedEvent Event<Inventory inventory, integer slot> Fired when the contents of an inventory slot have changed. This includes when the item in that slot is added, given, received, dropped, moved, resized, or removed. None

Examples

Example using:

itemPropertyChangedEvent

GetItems

In this example, a pair of server/client scripts are placed under an Inventory. If any of the inventory items has a dynamic custom property called "Freshness", then that item becomes less fresh over time, until the "Freshness" property reaches zero. The server script is responsible for changing the freshness, while the client script listens for the changes and prints them to the Event Log.

-- SERVER SCRIPT:
local INVENTORY = script:FindAncestorByType("Inventory")
local DECAY_PERIOD = 5

function Tick()
    Task.Wait(DECAY_PERIOD)

    for _,item in pairs(INVENTORY:GetItems()) do
        local value, hasProperty = item:GetCustomProperty("Freshness")
        if hasProperty and value > 0 then
            item:SetCustomProperty("Freshness", value - 1)
        end
    end
end

-- CLIENT SCRIPT:
local INVENTORY = script:FindAncestorByType("Inventory")

function OnPropertyChanged(inventory, item, propertyName)
    local value = item:GetCustomProperty(propertyName)

    print("Item ".. item.name ..":".. propertyName .." = ".. tostring(value))

    if propertyName == "Freshness" then
        if value == 1 then
            print("One of your items is almost rotten!")

        elseif value == 0 then
            print(item.name .." is now rotten.")
        end
    end
end

INVENTORY.itemPropertyChangedEvent:Connect(OnPropertyChanged)

Example using:

Assign

In this example each player is given an inventory when they join the game. The inventory is a template with networking enabled and is assigned as a custom property to the script.

local INVENTORY_TEMPLATE = script:GetCustomProperty("Inventory")

function OnPlayerJoined(player)
    local inventory = World.SpawnAsset(INVENTORY_TEMPLATE)
    player.serverUserData.inventory = inventory

    inventory:Assign(player)
end

Game.playerJoinedEvent:Connect(OnPlayerJoined)

Example using:

CanDropFromSlot

DropFromSlot

This example shows how to drop items from a player's inventory. When the player presses the 1 or 2 keys, any items found in their inventory's slots 1 or 2 are dropped to the ground.

-- Add binding set action names as custom properties.
local SLOT1_ACTION = script:GetCustomProperty("Slot1Action")
local SLOT2_ACTION = script:GetCustomProperty("Slot2Action")

function DropItemFromSlot(player, slotNumber)
    local inventory = player:GetInventories()[1]
    if not inventory then return end

    local deltaZ = 100
    if player.isCrouching then
         deltaZ = 50
    end

    local params = {
        count = 1,
        position = player:GetWorldPosition() - Vector3.UP * deltaZ
    }

    if inventory:CanDropFromSlot(slotNumber, params) then
        inventory:DropFromSlot(slotNumber, params)
    end
end

function OnActionPressed(player, action)
    if action == SLOT1_ACTION then
        DropItemFromSlot(player, 1)
    elseif action == SLOT2_ACTION then
        DropItemFromSlot(player, 2)
    end
end

Input.actionPressedEvent:Connect(OnActionPressed)

Example using:

CanMoveFromSlot

MoveFromSlot

In games with more complex inventories players will want to reorganize their items. In this example, we implement a "Move" operation by using a server event with Events.ConnectForPlayer(). This allows a client UI script to react to input and call Events.BroadcastToServer("MoveItemStack", fromSlot, toSlot).

function OnMove(player, fromSlot, toSlot)
    local inventory = player:GetInventories()[1]

    if inventory:CanMoveFromSlot(fromSlot, toSlot) then
        inventory:MoveFromSlot(fromSlot, toSlot)
    end
end

Events.ConnectForPlayer("MoveItemStack", OnMove)

Example using:

CanPickUpItem

PickUpItem

This example shows how to pick up items and add them to a player's inventory. The trigger is part of the template that is assigned to the Item Asset, in its property Item Template.

local TRIGGER = script:GetCustomProperty("Trigger"):WaitForObject()

function PickUpItem(player, itemObject)
    local inventory = player:GetInventories()[1]
    if not inventory then return end

    local params = {all = true}

    if inventory:CanPickUpItem(itemObject, params) then
        inventory:PickUpItem(itemObject, params)
    end
end

function OnBeginOverlap(_, player)
    if player:IsA("Player") then
        local item = TRIGGER:FindAncestorByType("ItemObject")
        PickUpItem(player, item)
    end
end

TRIGGER.beginOverlapEvent:Connect(OnBeginOverlap)

Example using:

CanRemoveFromSlot

RemoveFromSlot

GetItem

Some games may want to offer a "Scrap" operation to players, which destroyes items in exchange for some resource. The type of resource is defined as a custom property. In this example we implement a Scrap operation by using a server event with Events.ConnectForPlayer(). This allows a client UI script to react to a button press and call Events.BroadcastToServer("ScrapItem", slotNumber).

local RESOURCE_NAME = script:GetCustomProperty("ScrapResourceName")

function Scrap(inventory, slotNumber)
    if inventory:CanRemoveFromSlot(slotNumber) then
        local item = inventory:GetItem(slotNumber)
        local resourceGain = item.count

        inventory:RemoveFromSlot(slotNumber)

        return resourceGain
    end
    return 0
end

function OnScrapItem(player, slotNumber)
    local inventory = player:GetInventories()[1]
    local resourceGain = Scrap(inventory, slotNumber)
    player:AddResource(RESOURCE_NAME, resourceGain)
end

Events.ConnectForPlayer("ScrapItem", OnScrapItem)

Example using:

ClearItems

In this example, when a player dies they lose all items that were in all of their inventories.

local function OnPlayerDied(player, _)
    for _,inventory in ipairs(player:GetInventories()) do
        inventory:ClearItems()
    end
end

local function OnPlayerJoined(player)
    player.diedEvent:Connect(OnPlayerDied)
end

Game.playerJoinedEvent:Connect(OnPlayerJoined)

Example using:

ConsolidateItems

SortItems

Depending on the game it can be a good idea to offer a "Compact" operation to players, where the items in their inventory will sort to the top and different stacks of the same item will combine. In this example we implement a Compact operation by using a server event with Events.ConnectForPlayer(). This allows a client UI script to react to a button press and call Events.BroadcastToServer("CompactInventories").

function Compact(inventory)
    inventory:ConsolidateItems()
    inventory:SortItems()
end

function OnCompactInventories(player)
    for _,inventory in ipairs(player:GetInventories()) do
        Compact(inventory)
    end
end

Events.ConnectForPlayer("CompactInventories", OnCompactInventories)

Example using:

GetItem

slotCount

changedEvent

In this example, a client script prints to the Event Log all the contents of the local player's inventory. If the inventory contents change, the new list of contents is printed. In case the player has more than one inventory only the first one will be printed.

local VERBOSE = false
local player = Game.GetLocalPlayer()
local currentInventory = nil

function RefreshInventoryUI()
    print("\nInventory:")

    for i = 1, currentInventory.slotCount do
        local item = currentInventory:GetItem(i)
        if item then
            print(item.name .." x"..item.count)

            if VERBOSE then
                print("  itemAssetId: "..item.itemAssetId)
                print("  itemTemplateId: "..item.itemTemplateId)
                print("  maxStackCount: "..item.maximumStackCount)
                print("  inventory: "..item.inventory.name)
                print("  slot: "..item.slot)
            end
        end
    end
end

while currentInventory == nil do
    currentInventory = player:GetInventories()[1]
    if currentInventory then
        currentInventory.changedEvent:Connect(RefreshInventoryUI)
        RefreshInventoryUI()
    else
        Task.Wait()
    end
end

Example using:

occupiedSlotCount

GetItem

In this example, we periodically check how many inventories each player has and print the result to the Event Log.

function Tick()
    for _,player in ipairs(Game.GetPlayers()) do
        local inventories = player:GetInventories()
        local totalItems = 0
        for _,inventory in ipairs(inventories) do
            totalItems = totalItems + ComputeItemCount(inventory)
        end
        print(player.name.." has "..totalItems.." items across "..#inventories .." inventories.")
    end
    Task.Wait(3)
end

function ComputeItemCount(inventory)
    if inventory.occupiedSlotCount == 0 then return 0 end
    local total = 0
    for i = 1, inventory.occupiedSlotCount do
        local item = inventory:GetItem(i)
        if item then
            total = total + item.count
        end
    end
    return total

In this example, a player's entire inventory object drops when they die. For it to work, the inventory template should have a trigger child object, as well as a visual element (for example, a crate) so that other players can see it after it drops.

local INVENTORY_TEMPLATE = script:GetCustomProperty("InventoryWithPickup")

function OnPlayerDied(player, dmg)
    -- The player's inventory is dropped upon death
    local inventory = player.serverUserData.inventory
    player.serverUserData.inventory = nil
    inventory:Unassign()
    inventory:SetWorldPosition(player:GetWorldPosition())
end

function OnInteracted(trigger, player)
    -- Dead players cannot pickup an inventory
    if player.isDead then return end

    local inventory = trigger.parent
    if player.serverUserData.inventory == nil then
        -- The player picks up the inventory
        inventory:Assign(player)
        player.serverUserData.inventory = inventory

    elseif inventory.slotCount >= 1 then
        -- They already have an inventory. Transfer the items
        local targetInventory = player.serverUserData.inventory
        for i = 1,inventory.slotCount do
            if inventory:CanGiveSlot(i, targetInventory) then
