    if (value > 0) then

        money = money + value

    elseif (value < 0) then

        backpacks = backpacks+1

    end

end

As long as the following statements are true, this will work:

• Gold only exists in one backpack
• Gold is not removed from this backpack
• Gold is the only thing in this backpack with the exception of one nested backpack

    MONEY = MONEY + (Self.ItemCount(3031) - MONEY)

elseif Self.ItemCount(3031) + MONEY > MONEY then

    MONEY = MONEY + Self.ItemCount(3031)

end

That way you'll update MONEY value constantly without losing the count.

Interesting i will try both, tho i`m not sure if its gonna count every penny.
I think i`m just a bit hard headed in this matter.

Anyways thanks for thinking with me :D

Out of interest @DarkstaR - would it be possible to use the HasParent variable for each container to count how many loot or gold backpacks you've used so far? That would mean we could reset containers and use that function to cycle only the required number of backpacks on depositing, could also be useful if we can get more container parent info to allow us to monitor which container we're currently using... I'm not sure what HasParent returns but if it's an item ID we could simply use multicoloured backpacks through the levels...

is there any updated version of this that works with todays bot to count gold in nestled backpacks?

Better just check NPC proxy or result from using a gold coin with hotkeys

Like DarkstaR pointed out using hotkeys you can easily bind a gold coin to a hotkey just like you do with potions and when you press the hotkey it will say "Using one of xxx gold coins" (y)

so after some looking around I got to this

local goldReturn = 1000


function checkGold(proxy, message)
local gold = tonumber(string.match(message, "Using one of (.+) gold coins..."))
if (gold > goldReturn) then
gotoLabel("labelToLeave")
end

and then inside the label i put

LootMessageProxy.OnReceive("Gold Checker", checkGold)

is that correct?
I then went into the documentation to find out how to use a hotkey with script, but couldn't find this anywhere, so even if I got that far I don't know what to write in the label to actually press the hotkey... help please! :)
