CountInv

int CountInv (string itemtype [, int ptr_select])

Usage

Returns the specified pointer's inventory item count for a specific item, like CheckInventory but for DECORATE.

Note that this function is to be used where an expression is expected. It is mostly useful when combined with A_JumpIf and can be used to replace A_JumpIfInventory.

Parameters

itemtype: the inventory item to count and return.
ptr_select: the pointer to examine. Default is AAPTR_DEFAULT, which points to the caller of the function. See actor pointers.

Return value

Returns the exact count of itemtype an actor has.
