Drag and Drop Items/Inventory Not Working for Some Objects

[LordEntrails]

So I have three data objects that have inventory/equipment lists. Characters, major NPCs, and Starships. I can drag and drop items onto the Character sheet inventory list, but not the other two. All of them can manually add items via iadd buttons/functions. What am I doing wrong?

Here's the code for the fully working character sheet inventory:

<windowlist name="inventorylist">
<bounds>30,40,-49,-220</bounds>
<class>char_invitem</class>
<datasource>.inventorylist</datasource>
<script file="campaign/scripts/char_invlist.lua" />
</windowlist>


Here's the code for major NPC:

<windowlist name="equipment">
<frame name="frame_windowlist" offset="3,25,3,3" />
<anchored>
<left offset="9" />
<right offset="-7" />
<top offset="35" anchor="bottom" parent="benefits_list" relation="relative" />
<bottom offset="-16" />
<sizelimits>
<minimum height="40" />
</sizelimits>
</anchored>
<class>char_invitem</class>
<datasource>.inventorylist</datasource>
<columns>
<width>355</width>
<filldown />
</columns>
<script file="campaign/scripts/char_invlist.lua" />
</windowlist>



And here's the Starship (where I tried adding the acceptdrop, even though the character doesn't use it):

<windowlist name="inventorylist">
<anchored>
<left offset="11" />
<right offset="2" />
<top offset="186" />
<bottom offset="-9" />
</anchored>
<class>char_invitem</class>
<datasource>.inventorylist</datasource>
<allowcreate />
<allowdelete />
<acceptdrop>
<class>items</class>
<field>*</field>
</acceptdrop>
<columns>
<width>360</width>
<filldown />
</columns>
</windowlist>


(full code is in the frontierSpace ruleset on the forge, files charsheet_inventory.xml, sub_npc_major.xml, & ss_equip.xml)

If you want it to function like a character's inventory, then you'll need to register it in the library that it has inventory. If you open CoreRPG's library file there is a comment section at the top that explains the possible registrations. You can even see how it's set up under the charsheet.

Thanks. Lets see if I'm smart enough to figure that out :)

EDIT: NVM, testing shows that just that snippet won't work.
So, for NPCs since they are already registered with CoreRPG but I only want to set one value, do I need to copy all the registration options in my child ruleset, or can I just add the new option value? Do I need to somehow indicate a merge or append or is the following all I need?


LibraryData.aRecords["npc"] = {
tOptions = {
bInventory = true,
},
}

Yes, that should work; I believe that the tOptions combine.

I'll look at it more tomorrow. But my first try didn't work for either starships (which I already was declaring, I just added the option) and for NPCs which caused the library list to go blank. But I was getting an error and tons of warnings suddenly so I did something wrong.

But, gotta sign off for the night. Appreciate the help.

Working now per above post, think I had the wrong brackets or an extra comma
