Questions on Item events - RunUO

Stuby · 07-24-2008, 04:20 PM

I'm looking for the item event that fires when the item is added to a pack. I've overridden the OnDroppedInto and the OnDroppedOnto.

I'm also trying to override the OnParentDeath, but it never fires. I'm guessing that this is because the Parent is changed from the mobile that picked it up to the backpack that it is contained within. If this is the case, how can I figure out when the Mobile that contains the item dies? Containing the item does not neccessarily mean have it equiped, but it could be in their backpack, or sub backpacks, as well.

The event that fires for an item when the player that has that item dies is OnParentDeath.

Code:

public virtual DeathMoveResult OnParentDeath( Mobile parent )

Just to be clear, this isnt an event, it is just a method.

Coundn't get the OnParentDeath to work as the item's parent was the player's backpack, not the player. But, there was an OnInventoryDeath that did the trick.

I know they aren't true events, but they are circumstantial ones.
