Client_Backpack [--] A fun way to store things! (RP purposes)

[PurpleMetro]

Have you ever wanted that old backpack model to actually be USEFUL for things?

Well now it can!


Introducing the Backpack add-on!

It's a client-side add-on that you can use to store RP-related things!

This is NOT a bypass to help you store more tools in your inventory, it's an RP-item storer. Fake item storer

With 7 slots to store all your RP-related elements!


To use the Backpack add-on, there are a few easy steps you must follow. Alternatively, you can use b.help in-game for help.

This is a TYPING add-on. You must TYPE the bolded letters for the functions

b.open
                                               >These will open and close your backpack for viewing!
b.close


b.store ITEM slot SLOT  > This will add the ITEM to the SLOT in your backpack

b.take SLOT  >This will remove the ITEM that is held in SLOT in your backpack


b.use SLOT  >This will use the item that is in SLOT. This can be modified to erase the item afterwards in client.cs


That is all for now, oh and also, here is the download link:

So is this commanded via typing or bindings?

Also, amazing.

So basically this is a way to store more items when your Q inventory is full?

[¥ola]

After looking through the code, this doesn't actually give and/or remove items from your inventory at all.

It's for RP'ing purposes only.

Also, I suggest not using the clientCmdChatMessage and then doing a check on the players netname as a person who has control of console can easily talk as that player controlling their backpack

No.


EDIT;
On top of that, you never checked to see if what the player is pulling out was ever added in the first place, that should be fixed asap

And forgot to say, good job for your first addon :)

Also key bindings.

um, I don't understand what you are trying to say. why can't I do a netname check? it's a bit tedious for the players to have to go and change the name in the client.cs to their name, when they can just to netname check. if I don't do a netname check at all, every player who is on a server with a client who holds Client_Backpack can control that add-on



EDIT: oh, thanks, you helped me solve the removing bug. updating the file right now

No, no, no
I'm saying that yes, the way you are doing it is the CORRECT way, but it is abuseable, in this addon it isn't too much of a worry but in others it may be.

If any person with server console access decided to make the user say Open Backpack, via console then the client would be forced to open it.

There is a function that is only called when the true client sends a message, I'll attempt to find it for you
It is, newChatHud_addLine(%text)

tried using <br> with it, but it failed to work. is there another function similar to this but centerprint?

<br>?
Centerprint?

I'm not exactly sure but you might be able to use NL for a new line

uh no
the server can really fake whatever it wants
as long as it isn't engine protected, which chat is not

[PurpleMetro]

<br>?
Centerprint?

<br> is used in centerprint, to skip a line. in events there are:

onActivate - Client - centerPrint - "";

NL is for regular chat messaging, i can't use <BR> for it.

You can use \n

updated v2.5

[Mr.Noßody]

Holy stuff, why so much to type in? I mean, a full sentence?

Why cant it be a key bind?
Does it have to be client sided?
Why cant it work like an item overflow?
Ive wanted this, but not like this...
