Inactive [MECH] Backpack v2.2.0 (The Ultimate Inventory Expander!) [953]

Very nice and original concept. I like it! However, maybe you should switch it around so that crouching and scrolling changes inventory pages, so you still have the standard method for utilising quickbar - less disruptive.

agreed, this would be much more desirable

I can certainly swap it around.

Updated to switch sneaking's role.

No backpack here is server error

Oh, I know why! I forgot to update Minecart Mania Core - which has some needed changes for Backpack to work. One moment.

MMC is updated - try again now!

Hahaha, this is awesome. Thanks again for yet another great plugin!

The idea and implementation is awesome. Afforess, would this actually also get rid of the terrible inventory corruption bug, which makes the clients atm crash? Yesterday, we had a terrible evening on our server - 10 players experienced that when they went to a specific slot in their inventory, their client just simply crashed on them. They all had to take a refreshing swin in lava to purge their inventories and "clean themselves".

hey man great idear just wondering if you thought of making it so that the inventorys could be set be purchased/earned or payed for in some way, I mean i love the idear of not having to walk back to the bank so often but then I also like working for things that make the game easyer . on a side note if you die do you lose 30 pages of stuffs as whih could also be an option to set in server.properties (just a few thoughts)

Err, umm... I got the latest MMC and this plugin. CB#447.

EDIT: Nevermind, I seemed to forgot to upload the MMC, but I thought I did.

A few questions:

• What happens to the items if we remove the plugin/an update breaks it?
• If we die, will all items including those in backpack drop?
• If we pick up more items then a standard inventory will allow will the other items automatically go into the next spare backpack location or will we have to swap backpacks before being able to pick them up?

Great idea! Time to start the long-haul mining & hiking

Love it

Probably will, because it resets all the slots each time you change a page.

If you read the OP, permissions, and configuration for each player is planned.

1.)Your inventory will be the one you logout on then. The other pages will not be acessable(but won't be lost, since it's all saved in files). I can't imagine the plugin breaking for more than a build or two, I plan on maintaining everything for the long haul, and the source is available.

For instance, if a server update breaks this plugin for a day, everyone would lose access to their extra pages. Once this plugin updated, they'd get their extra pages WITH everything that was in them back.

2.) Right now only the items in your open page will drop. I'll fix that next release.

3.) Right now - you'd have to switch pages. But I'm planning 2 different features here. When you close a page, your inventory will get compressed (ie, if you have 4 stacks of 6 cobblestone, they get compressed into 1 stack of 24 cobblestone), and then items will attempt to go to other pages if yours is full.

Thanks for the thoughts/ideas.

WOW You could nealy say that this is the first plugin to use a key binding thats Not in minecraft (for smp) I know its only combining 2 already existing keys but still Its very cool And i would love to have it on my server yet another reason why i need to get off my fat gaming backside and install MM. Im just worried about bogging down my server with plugins already i have like 10 and theres huge amounts of lag when you first join the server settles down after like 10 min of play annoying (i blame essentials but who knows)

I may clean out essentials and replace it with 2 more simple narrow minded plugins and install this at the same time seems like a good idea to be but they are not known for being right lol.

I'm wondering how this will function with DeathChest? Would be funny to see multiple chest dropped on death xD

The way I've got drops on death - deathchest and other plugins that affect loot should work fine. They will see the additional loot, and act accordingly.

I fear noobs saying "my inventories gone ?!?!?". Is there a way to display that there inventory has switched to a new backpack, or even a text saying "switched inventory to backpack2 use shift <mousewheel> to change back" constant status of somekind would be ideal however

that would be a nice feature, though also add in a feature to limit how often they pop out as players may miss announcements and other events when rapidly switching

Or maybe just announce it for the first time they login and the mod detects that they have no saved inventory pages yet. So only new users get alerted.

Backpack 0.12 is up, with the changelog on the op! enjoy!

Yup, you need to get permissions done soon too. Need to tip DeathChest author about this plugin so he can add support for "drop 4 large chests"

Added a First time login message for new users.

Added configuration file for controlling how many extra pages users can get. (Note: Values over 9 get ignored). Enjoy!

(XML FTW!)

Afforess,

Love Minecart Mania! and have been using it since before the last MC Alpha builds.

Backpack is a very cool add-on. I would however like to report a bug.

When tearing up some cart track today, the pieces of cart track were getting multiplied quite quickly. I probably picked up 20 to 30 and now have over 480 pieces. It was stacking track over the 64 limit and at one point was adding 7 pieces for every one I was picking up.

I'll do some more testing to see if this is the only item that is doing this.

Keep up the good work!

Okay, thanks! I'm looking into it.
Edit: Was a result of me not being careful with multithreading!

Backpack v0.15 is up, fixed item duplication issues!
