I'm trying to add an item via script. I could get around this if there were a Game Variable option for the Add To Inventory step, but it only accepts a preset selection.

I searched through the forums and the closest answer I found was here:
forum.orkframework.com/discussion/812/solved-removing-a-weapon-from-the-inventory/p1

But I don't understand how to use an IShortcut item. To me it seems like the code should be like this:

// The ItemID we want to add
int ItemID;

public void AddItem(){
// Get my Combatant / Player
Combatant TestCombatant = ComponentHelper.GetCombatant(gameObject);
// Create an IShortcut. Place the data from the ORK Items database that matches the ItemID.
IShortcut ItemToAdd = ORK.Items.data[ItemID] as IShortcut;
// Add the Item to the player's inventory.
TestCombatant.Inventory.AddItem(ItemToAdd);
}

But the above doesn't even compile, complaining that ItemToAdd is overloading AddItem.

Ideas about what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks in advance.

You can create an ItemShortcut (the IShortcut implementation of an item) like this:

ItemShortcut item = new ItemShortcut(int itemID, int quantity);

itemID is the index/ID of the item, quantity the quantity of the item.

Thank you for responding, but that doesn't seem to solve the problem.

Is the final line correct?

TestCombatant.Inventory.AddItem(item);

because that is the line that is giving me an overload error.

error CS1501: No overload for method `AddItem' takes `1' arguments

Wait, nevermind. I think I have it solved. I assumed that the two bools were not required, but they are.

Yeah, that was the problem. I ignored filling in all the arguments. Gotta remember not to assume they are default arguments.

I had originally used optional parameters, but the Mono 2.0 subset used by Unity doesn't like that when compiling, so I had to remove them all :)

Thanks for your help! It was my fault for being a lazy programmer. :)
