Custom Inventories?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’m working on a Custom Inventory / Backpack for the Player. However, I’ve ran into this issue -
Note the while true is just there for my own reference

I work this by having an ObjectValue within the ImageLabel that sets the Value to the corresponding item in the Players inventory. However - My intention is that the script checks to see if the Item is the same as the ObjVal and if so - It already exists so no need to clone it. However, this occurs:

Note, there is only 1 item in the Players Inventory to even begin with.

Update = function()		
	for i, item in pairs (Inventory["Tools"]:GetDescendants()) do
		if item:IsA("NumberValue") then
			for _,p in pairs (UI:GetDescendants()) do
				if p:IsA("ObjectValue") then
					if p.Value == item then break end
					local _Icon = script["Box"]:Clone()
					_Icon:WaitForChild("Match").Value = item
					_Icon.Parent = UI["Frame"]["Storage"]["ScrollingFrame"]
				end
			end
		end
	end
end

while true do wait(2.5)
	Update()
end

are you setting the objectvalue’s value in the image label? From the code you gave, you just clone the imagelabel but don’t actually set the objectvalue.

I think I ran into a similar issue. Are the tools being stored in the player‘s backpack or somewhere else?

I am, the ObjectValue is within the Image.
The Object Value is ‘Match’.

They’re not tools per-say, they’re NumberValues. But they’re stored within a Custom Folder titled ‘Inventory’ inside the Player.

Even after re-coding and editing it I get the following:
The issue persists, however, it still prints “found”.
@RaedXD @FancyTaik123

isExisting = function(Item)
	for _,i in pairs (UI["Frame"]:GetDescendants()) do
		if i:IsA("ImageButton") then
			if i.Match.Value == Item then
				return true
			else
				return false
			end
		end
	end
end

Update = function()
	for _,Item in pairs (Inventory["Tools"]:GetDescendants()) do
		if Item:IsA("NumberValue") then
			if not isExisting(Item) then
				local _Icon = script["Box"]:Clone()
				_Icon["Match"].Value = Item
				_Icon.Parent = UI["Frame"]["Storage"]["ScrollingFrame"]
			else
				print("Found!")
			end
		end
	end
end

while true do wait(2.5)
	Update()
end

I think this was the issue! I moved the placement of return false and now it’s stopped the MultiCloning!
