Imbuing Change

[Kamras]

Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction if I wanted to send a different gump when someone clicks on the imbue button in the skills menu? I've found many entries in the imbue script but I'm a little lost..

Looks like it should be ImbuingGump

SkillInfo.Table[(int)SkillName.Imbuing].Callback = new SkillUseCallback( OnUse );

public static TimeSpan OnUse(Mobile from)
....
from.SendGump(new ImbuingGump(from));
}

But there's also ImbuingB and ImbuingC
You could always just put in a test message

from.SendGump(new ImbuingGump(from));
from.SendMessage("Test message for Imbuing skill use");

Ahh that is it! I looked at that line and for some reason it did not click to me. Now for the next fun part, figuring out how to get a crafting system to be called instead of a gump LOL.

Do you mean a craft gump like when you dbl click a tool?

 

[Kamras]

so I made the tool to call the craft gump, which works fine. But i want the imbue action icon on the skills menu to bring up that same craft gump (i made it an actual craft system) instead of the imbue gump.

 

[zerodowned]

well the craft gump needs a tool, so you'll have to search their pack for the tool when they try to use the skill
but his is how you would send the craft gump

from.SendGump(new CraftGump(from, DefCarpentry.CraftSystem, tool, null));

I tried the above code and I got this error

    CS0103: Line 39: The name 'tool' does not exist in the current context

 

[zerodowned]

that's because you need to find the tool in the player's backpack
i don't have time to write an example for that, sorry

 

[Kamras]

So I tried Adding a line to look for the tool and I got this error.

Errors:
+ Skills/Craft/Imbuing/Core/Imbuing.cs:
    CS1502: Line 41: The best overloaded method match for 'Server.Engines.Craft.CraftGump.CraftGump(Server.Mobile, Server.Engines.Craft.CraftSystem, Server.Items.BaseTool, object)' has some invalid arguments

Here is the code that I Added

            Item tool = from.Backpack.FindItemByType(typeof(CarpTool));
           
            if (!from.Alive)
                from.SendLocalizedMessage(500949); //You can't do that when you're dead.
            else
            {
                from.SendGump(new CraftGump(from, DefCarpentry.CraftSystem, tool, null));
            }

Thank you zerodowned for your support. For the sake of follow through I have returned to this thread to post my final result. I did eventually figure this out and will post this in case anyone else is curious about changing what the imbue action icon does.

Here is the completed code I used that has worked.

This checks back pack for tool, if no tool is detected the player gets a warning. If tool is available then its used.

        public static TimeSpan OnUse(Mobile from)
        {
            if (!from.Alive)
                from.SendLocalizedMessage(500949); //You can't do that when you're dead.
            else
            {
                BaseTool tool = from.Backpack.FindItemByType( typeof( SmithHammer), true ) as SmithHammer;
                if ( tool != null )
                {
                    from.SendGump(new CraftGump(from, BlackSmithyDef.CraftSystem, tool, null));
                   
                }
                else
                    from.SendMessage( "Need Smith Hammer In BackPack..." );
            }
           
            /*
            else
            {
                from.CloseGump(typeof(ImbuingGump));
                from.SendGump(new ImbuingGump(from));
            }
            */

            return TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1.0);
        }
