Inventory Stack Problems.

Having a problem with an inventory script.

am sure its something to do with reference and clone. but i have no idea how to sort it.
been trying random things but nothing fixes it.

basically when i get to the max stack size of 5 i want it to create a new stack at 1/5 but instead it keeps the 5/5 stack count when it makes the new one.

code below any help would be great been at it all day heh.
Sorry if its abit messy only been at this c# stuff a few days.

nothing? lol

 

Yes it's a reference issue.

You get the reference from your database and add it to your inventory. So the reference in your inventory still points to the database item. As soon as you add another item of the same type, you even adjust the count in the database.
And when the stack is full, you add another reference of the same instance to the inventory. As it's the reference to the same instance, it'll show 5/5 logically.

What you could need for your attempt is a copy-constructor or a method which works similarly and returns a complete new instance of 'Item'.
Another approach would be to simply hold the ID + count in your slot and always lookup the item in the database, this way you wouldn't need duplicated objects of the item.

As for your 'database', you could also use a dictionary with the ID being the key and the item being the value.

Also, if you add the items in the correct order and not leaving out a single id, you can simply validate the ID with an if statement and if it's a valid index/id, directly access the index (just like you'd access an array item). That saves one loop.

 

that went over my head so ill get back to looking for more vids on dictionary's etc heh
