Question
i’m using resources to store the contents of a bottle, to avoid modifying the same resource, i create a duplicate of it, like this
emptyBottle = PlayerInventory.inventory[PlayerInventory.selectedSlotID].item
storedBottle = PlayerInventory.inventory[PlayerInventory.selectedSlotID].item.duplicate(true)
emptyBottle is what i use to give the player the old bottle back if they don’t modify anything while the storedBottle is the one i put the new stuff in
howerver, when the duplication occurs it does this
emptyBottle with 40 units stored and chem color yellow:
storedBottle that for some reason, reverts back to the default settings, 0 units stored and white color despite being a duplicate of the same resource:
is there a way to duplicate the resource properly or should i use something else other than resources?
this is the code of the resource if needed:
extends InvItem
class_name BottleStats
@export var maxUnitCapacity: float
@export var bottleType: bottleTypes
@export var storedChems: Array[chemContainerSlot] = [chemContainerSlot.new()]
var totUnitsStored: float
var isFirstElement: bool = true
var chemColor: Color = Color(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
enum bottleTypes {DRINK,BULLET,GRENADE}
#returns true if the chem level changed, if not returns false
func addChemToBottle(chemToAdd: ChemStats,unitsToTransfer: float) -> bool:
if totUnitsStored + unitsToTransfer > maxUnitCapacity:
return false
if isFirstElement:
storedChems[0].storedChem = chemToAdd
storedChems[0].unitsStored = unitsToTransfer
totUnitsStored += unitsToTransfer
isFirstElement = false
return true
for i:int in storedChems.size():
if storedChems[i].storedChem == chemToAdd:
storedChems[i].unitsStored += unitsToTransfer
totUnitsStored += unitsToTransfer
if storedChems[i].unitsStored <= 0:
storedChems.pop_at(i)
if storedChems.is_empty():
storedChems.append(chemContainerSlot.new())
isFirstElement = true
return true
storedChems.append(chemContainerSlot.new())
storedChems[storedChems.size() - 1].storedChem = chemToAdd
storedChems[storedChems.size() - 1].unitsStored = unitsToTransfer
totUnitsStored += unitsToTransfer
if storedChems[storedChems.size() - 1].unitsStored <= 0:
storedChems.pop_back()
if storedChems.is_empty():
storedChems.append(chemContainerSlot.new())
isFirstElement = true
return true
func getMatchingChem(chemToFind:ChemStats) -> chemContainerSlot:
for i: int in storedChems.size():
if storedChems[i].storedChem == chemToFind:
return storedChems[i]
return null
func isBottleEmpty() -> bool:
if storedChems.is_empty():
return true
if storedChems.get(0).storedChem == null:
return true
return false
