[Solved] Remove weapon after certain time?

Shadow_Fire

As the title stated, when a weapon/item is being put in the inventory, is there currently a way to remove the say weapon/item from the inventory after a certain time have pass? Example: I use an item(log) and a weapon(torch) appear in my inventory. I got this part down. But after a certain time pass, I want the torch to be remove.

You can do this using Global Events.

E.g. set a variable on item use (e.g. a float used as counter), create a game event that reduces the counter by 1 (and removes the item/weapon when it reaches 0). Now, all you need to do is set up an Auto type global event (World > Global Events) that executes the event every second as long as the variable is above 0 :)

Phew, easier say than done. I have to wrap my head around and around and around for 4 hours until it finally click on how to make the variable work in this instance XD But GiL, can you check if the REMOVE FROM INVENTORY step is working correctly? I did my global event so that when I use a log, it'll activate the global event and the float variable inside the event will go up a number each second and when it reaches a certain number, it'll check for my torch and remove it from the inventory. The problem is it's not removing my torch from the inventory at all. If I try to remove an item, it removes fine, but if I try to remove a weapon, it'll just ignore it.

If you have the weapon equipped, you'd need to unequip it first :)

Ahh my shamefully mistake XD. Thanks GiL!
