Project Sloth Inventory

Improve compatibility between our Meth Crafting & ps-inventory

Please follow all the instructions below carefully! The steps below are required in order to make ps-inventory work properly with our meth cooking script.

Part 1 - Add New Functions

Step 1

The first part to making ps-inventory work smoothly with our meth script is by adding two new functions to add items into a stash. To get started go to: ps-inventory/server/main.lua file line 2780 and hit enter twice to create some blank space. It should look like this:

This is what it should look like before you complete the next step

Step 2

Then, copy the code below and paste it where we created the blank space from above.

local function GetFirstEmptySlot(items, maxSlots)
    for i = 1, maxSlots do
        if items[i] == nil then
            return i
        end
    end
    return nil
end

local function AddStashItem(stashId, item, count, slot, metadata)
    if not stashId or not item then return end
    if not count then count = 1 end
    local stash = Stashes[stashId]
    if not stash then return end
    local itemData = QBCore.Shared.Items[item]
    if not itemData then return end
    if not slot then
        slot = GetFirstEmptySlot(stash.items, Config.MaxInventorySlots)
        if not slot then return end
    end
    local added = false
    for k, v in pairs(stash.items) do
        k = tostring(k)
        if not v.unique or not itemData.unique then
            if v.name == itemData.name and k ~= slot then
                v.amount = v.amount + count
                added = true
                break
            end
        end
    end
    if not added then
        stash.items[slot] = {
            name = itemData["name"],
            amount = count,
            info = metadata or "",
            label = itemData["label"],
            description = itemData["description"] or "",
            weight = itemData["weight"],
            type = itemData["type"],
            unique = itemData["unique"],
            useable = itemData["useable"],
            image = itemData["image"],
            slot = slot,
        }
    end
    SaveStashItems(stashId, stash.items)
end

exports('AddStashItem', AddStashItem)

Step 3

Save this file & move on to part 2 below!

Part 2 - Displaying Metadata

The last thing we must do is update the app.js file found in the html/js folder of ps-inventory that will allow the information attached to certain items display on hover in your inventory. Follow the steps below to get started!

Step 1

Navigate to ps-inventory/html/js/app.js & open this file in Visual Studio Code or a similar editor. Search for the item "markedbills" (at the time of this writing it is found on line 640). Then, place your cursor at the end of this code block, just like the image example below:

Place your cursor in the same position found in this screenshot

Step 2

Hit enter to create a new, empty line. And paste in the following code:

// Start of lation_meth items
} else if (itemData.name == "ls_liquid_meth" || itemData.name == "ls_meth" || itemData.name == "ls_meth_tray" || itemData.name == "ls_meth_box") {
    $(".item-info-title").html("<p>" + itemData.label + "</p>");
    $(".item-info-description").html(
        "<p><strong>Strain: </strong><span>" +
        itemData.info.strain +
        "</span></p><p><strong>Purity: </strong><span>" +
        itemData.info.purity +
        "%</span></p>"
    );
} else if (itemData.name == "ls_ammonia" || itemData.name == "ls_iodine" || itemData.name == "ls_acetone") {
    $(".item-info-title").html("<p>" + itemData.label + "</p>");
    $(".item-info-description").html(
        "<p><strong>Remaining: </strong><span>" +
        itemData.info.quality +
        "%</span></p>"
    );
// End of lation_meth items

You're code should now look similar to the example in the image below:

This is how your app.js file should look once you've pasted the items in

Save, restart your server & you'll now see the necessary information when you hover over these items in your inventory!
