Help with Bag of Holding Extension (development)

We just came into this issue. This sounds like a very cool extension. Do you know when you will be releasing it?

I did manage to get it working. I'm currently testing it with friends.

Will need a couple days to make sure there are no apparent issues.

Will aim to get something out on Tuesday, unless there are issues found.

This will be my first extension, so I will advise now, that you should make sure your campaign is backed up before use.

I ran into an issue today, while refactoring... ya know how it is..

The way i previously had a working version, was essentially replacing the "manager_char.lua" file with my own, where i copied everything from the original into my own, and added my own lua where needed.

Knowing that this is not best practice, i looked to create and initialize my own script, which is being called as and when it is needed, but now the script does not work.

I have tested that both the onInit() and my function is being called, which it is.

Below is my function.

function onInit()
	DB.addHandler(DB.getPath("charsheet.*.inventorylist.*.carried") , "onUpdate", nonDimensionalStorage);
	DB.addHandler(DB.getPath("*.count"), "onUpdate", nonDimensionalStorage);
end

function nonDimensionalStorage(nodeChar)


        local nDSCurrent = 0;
	local nDSMax = 500;
	local nDSRemaining = 0;
	local nDSNCount, nDSNWeight;

	for _,vNode in pairs(DB.getChildren(nodeChar, "inventorylist")) do

		if DB.getValue(vNode, "location", 0) == "Bag of Holding" 
		and DB.getValue(vNode, "carried", 0) == 0 then
			nDSNCount = DB.getValue(vNode, "count", 0);

			if nDSNCount < 1 then
				nDSNCount = 1;
			end

			nDSNWeight = DB.getValue(vNode, "weight", 0);			
			nDSCurrent = nDSCurrent + (nDSNCount * nDSNWeight);
		end

		nDSRemaining = nDSMax - nDSCurrent;
	end

	DB.setValue(nodeChar, "bagofholding.current", "number", nDSCurrent);
	DB.setValue(nodeChar, "bagofholding.remaining", "number", nDSRemaining);
	DB.setValue(nodeChar, "bagofholding.max", "number", nDSMax);
end

EDIT: I forgot to mention, that it is the for loop that is not being called, but I do not get any errors in the console

also.. is there a code wrap option on the forum?

EDIT: never mind i found it (in advanced)
