Not sure whether this has anything to do with scripting or not, but I wanted to know how a reader would be able to check how much ammo he/she has left by checking his/her inventory. For example, say I start off with nine bullets, and use two, would it be possible for me to click on my item and see how much ammo I have left?

I would appreciate the help, thanks.

Well, I don't have much scripting experience, but my understanding is that you can make a variable 'Ammo Capacity' and go the the item description and tell it to display 'Ammo Capacity' as part of the discription.

This is correct.

In your Item Description Box - type something like this:

9mm Pistol (%%AMMO%% Shots Left)

---

This will show the value of the %AMMO Variable right there in the Item Description. For example if the Value of %Ammo is 5 - it will read to the Player:

9mm Pistol (5 Shots Left)

This was a huge help, thank you!

No Problem!  Good luck with your Story    =)

Good luck!
