Empty Bottle > Full Bottle (SOLVED)

[HotSpot6]

I would like to request a script that simulates the empty bottle system in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Wind Waker and any others I didnt mention.

how it works:
you get empty bottles along the way, and certain items you can put in them, like a fish and water, potions, and misc other stuff, and when you use, let go whatever was in the bottle, its empty again.

what I'm requesting:
A script that allows me to do this but with a customizable area to input the items that can be put into the bottle, like:

"Items to be put in the bottle" => [Item_id]

and whatever else you can think of to further enhance it.

credit and much thanks will be given.

Now, at the top of the scrip you will see this line

EMPTYBOTTLE = [33,34,35,36]

You have to put the id's for the "empty  bottle" items that you'll use.  Zelda usually  has four, so I set it up using id's 33-36.

Now, to fill a bottle you must place the following in an script call.
make the event's trigger "Action Button"

$game_system.add_item = i

in which i is the id of the item that you want to put inside the bottle.

Simply walk to that tile and press the C button to fill your bottle. (only one bottle will be filled, to fill another one, you must press the C button again)

Now, to use the item inside a bottle use the following commands

@> script: $game_system.use_item = i
@> Wait: 1 frame(s)
@> Conditional Branch: Script: $game_system.use_item_found
    @> Whatever you want to happen after using the item
    @>Script: if $game_system.use_item_found
     :          :$game_system.use_item_found = false
     :          :end
    @>
  :  Branch End
@>

Again, i (on the first line) is the id of the item you need to use.


Enjoy!  :thumb:
