Backpack Minimizer

Would be nice to have an option in "Tools" to minimize your backpacks.
I use alot of free scripts and it seems backpacks are the main problem with them haha (they dont resize and you end up closing one or 2 backpacks when you loot)
A backpack minimizer would help alot me thinks :)

Edit the .lua files yourself.

Not everyone knows how to edit or even script in .lua, it would been much easier to just make a option in tools to minimize backpacks as Sspanky said above.

Or you guys could take the time to learn.

One reason that ppl bot is because you dont have the TIME.

You don't need much time if you have intelligence.

I'm an Engineer/Inspector so I don't think i'm stupid, but I'm not great with all things IT.
My post was just a suggestion that would make my life (and probably a few others) easier.

will Container.Minimize() minimise all BP's or do you have to specify which ones?

You took the words from my mouth.

Considering that making a LUA to minimize BP's needs very little skill, I doubt you have even tried. It really is not that difficult.

What is so hard about this?

lua code:

GoldBp = "red backpack"



Self.OpenMainBackpack(true)

wait(750,1000)

Container.GetFirst():OpenChildren(GoldBp)

wait(300,800)

Container.GetByName(GoldBp):Minimize()

wait(200,400)

you can even do it like this.
lua code:

GoldBp = "red backpack"

Self.OpenMainBackpack(true):OpenChildren({GoldBp,true})

Was just a suggestion that would have made my life easier, wasn't trying to say you couldn't do it with .lua
Anyways, I have made my suggestion and thats that. Up to Darkstar whether or not it should be implemented.

No Biggie either way :)
@Eion Yes that may need very little skill but when you have no skill in the subject it's not so easy.

Code:

---

for i = 0, 15 do
Container.Minimize(i) wait(500, 800)
end

---

If you cannot write it yourself, copy it from someone else lua file that knows what they are doing :). Its not hard to identify the code that actually minimizes backpacks.
A little practice goes a long way!

What if it looks like this in the lua:

Self.SayToNpc({"hi", "deposit all", "yes", "withdraw "..WA, "yes", "balance"}, 70, 5)
sleep(math.random(700,900))
resetBackpacks()
setWalkerEnabled(true)

Where do i put the Minimizer? Might be a stupid question but i really suck at this kinda things.

i'd change the backpack resetter out completely and make my own one.

thought similar

Hi,

resetBackpacks() is a function found somewhere in the script (usually after your walker label function at the end of the script). This is where you would find / edit the backpack opener to minimize them.

Hello, im edit lua mi self to minimise containers using Container:Minimize() and just minimise frist one, how can do for it minimise all?

When you open backpack just add ",true" after it.
example.
Self.OpenMainBackpack(true):OpenChildren({BPID, true}
