I looked around the forums and couldn't find any on the topic but maybe i just didn't see it. When a player dies it moves there items to the corpse right, inv, and everything they are wearing... now what I want it to do is not to take woren items just items you were holding... how would I do this?

In make_corpse (I think), just have an ifcheck if the item is being worn, then put the item into the corpse.

I was looking at like th dbsc source and found this.

    for ( obj = ch->first_carrying; obj; obj = obj_next )
    {
        obj_next = obj->next_content;
        if (!IS_NPC(ch) && obj->wear_loc != -1)
                continue;
        obj_from_char( obj );

        if( obj->item_type == ITEM_DRAGONBALL )
        {
          obj_to_room(obj,ch->in_room);
          continue;
        }

        if ( (!IS_NPC(ch) && IS_OBJ_STAT( obj, ITEM_INVENTORY ))
          || IS_OBJ_STAT( obj, ITEM_DEATHROT ) )
            extract_obj( obj );
        else
            obj_to_obj( obj, corpse );
    }


but in dbsc they only use inv like I want... however trying to use the obj->wear_loc != -1 only seems to create a problem where the item is removed from you, and is just deleted or lost somewhere.

But I cant really figure out how to even try, because looking around to me it seems wear_loc is always -1.. and the check still removes its from the player so I am at a loss

You'll need to make sure you're doing obj_to_char or obj_to_obj.

but if you look at the example given it does both obj_from_char and obj_to_obj already. so the problem is finding out if its worn or in the inventory.

Could you explain the problem again, in more detail? It's just lost "somewhere"?

alright adding the if check in the example still seems to remove your eq, the only difference is that it doesn't put it in the corpse.

Could you post the code you have so that we know exactly what we're working with? You're probably calling obj_from_obj and removing the object from the corpse, then leaving the function with the if-check before putting the object somewhere.

            obj_to_obj( obj, corpse );
    }


the only change I could find is

         if (!IS_NPC(ch) && obj->wear_loc != -1)
                continue;


but I could just be wrong in the whole thing

How did you make that change? Did you add lines? Remove lines? Where? Please try hard to be specific when talking about code and the like, little details are critical.

this is how it looked when I tested it. I tried to make it like the dbsc copy. Placing it where it was there as well.

The continue is probably skipping over doing anything to the obj. Move the continue down, so the ifcheck moves the obj to the corpse and then does a continue.

Why would I want that? I want the obj to stay on the players and not takken off to begin with? I only want it to remove items from the inventory. Doing what you suggested will remove all things from the player and they will just be gone.
