Event override

How to override an event?

Its pretty simple:

Create a Events M2DA File:

In this case i used the "EVENT_TYPE_INVENTORY_ADDED" Event and Handle it in my custom Event-Handler-Script: my_event_override

Now just handle the event in your script as you like:

For example i want to have a screen-message every time i pick up an item (or steal one):

// --- script start --- #include "utility_h" #include "wrappers_h" #include "events_h" void main() { event ev = GetCurrentEvent(); int nEvent = GetEventType(ev); object oOwner = GetEventCreator(ev); switch (nEvent) { case EVENT_TYPE_INVENTORY_ADDED: { object oItem = GetEventObject(ev, 0); DisplayFloatyMessage(oOwner, GetName(oItem) + " added", FLOATY_MESSAGE, 14654488, 10.0); break; } } } // --- script end ---
