EquipmentBroadcasts - jimdroberts/FishMMO GitHub Wiki

Defines broadcast structures for equipment inventory actions, including setting, equipping, and unequipping items. Used for networked communication of equipment inventory changes between client and server.

• public struct EquipmentSetItemBroadcast : IBroadcast

  Broadcast for setting a single item in the equipment inventory. Contains all data needed to place or update an item in an equipment slot.

  • long InstanceID: Unique instance ID of the item.
  • int TemplateID: Template ID of the item type.
  • int Slot: Slot index in the equipment inventory.
  • int Seed: Seed value for item randomization or uniqueness.
  • uint StackSize: Stack size of the item.

• public struct EquipmentSetMultipleItemsBroadcast : IBroadcast

  Broadcast for setting multiple items in the equipment inventory at once. Used for bulk updates or synchronization.

  • List Items: List of items to set in the equipment inventory.

• public struct EquipmentEquipItemBroadcast : IBroadcast

  Broadcast for equipping an item from an inventory slot to an equipment slot.

  • int InventoryIndex: Index of the item in the inventory.
  • byte Slot: Equipment slot to equip the item to.
  • InventoryType FromInventory: Type of inventory the item is being equipped from.

• public struct EquipmentUnequipItemBroadcast : IBroadcast

  Broadcast for unequipping an item from an equipment slot to an inventory slot.

  • byte Slot: Equipment slot to unequip the item from.
  • InventoryType ToInventory: Type of inventory the item is being moved to.

1. Use these broadcast structs to send and receive equipment inventory actions between client and server.
2. Populate the fields as required for each equipment operation (set, equip, unequip, etc.).

// Example 1: Equipping an item
EquipmentEquipItemBroadcast equip = new EquipmentEquipItemBroadcast {
    InventoryIndex = 3,
    Slot = 1,
    FromInventory = InventoryType.Inventory
};
networkManager.ClientManager.Broadcast(equip);

// Example 2: Unequipping an item
EquipmentUnequipItemBroadcast unequip = new EquipmentUnequipItemBroadcast {
    Slot = 1,
    ToInventory = InventoryType.Inventory
};
networkManager.ClientManager.Broadcast(unequip);

• Always validate slot indices and item data before sending or processing broadcasts.
• Use bulk updates for efficient synchronization of large inventories.
• Keep equipment logic modular and well-documented for maintainability.
• Use the provided broadcast structs for clear, type-safe network communication.
