$pack usage?

$pack([bank,]slot,<option>): returns pack information.
<option> can be: name, combine, open, size, weight, slots, space, empty

First how many bank slots are there and how are they numbered? I don't have access to game right now from memory...

0-5 9-13
1-6 10-14
2-7 11-15
3-8 12-16

17-18

17 and 18 are the two shared slots? Not sure on any of this just guessing.

Given that the 0 inventory slot in the bank has a container of some kind I it…

/varset Pack1 $pack (bank,0,open)

Would I get TRUE or FALSE if that container were open or closed respectively?

Did you try that command before asking in here?

The way you are wording this is you haven't tried this for yourself.

Well, I mean when you get home or whatever give it a try then come back if you have a problem.

yes, open returns a TRUE or a FALSE. Im not 100% sure what item 0 is but do a /echo $pack(bank,0,name) on the command line to see what you get. I find using the command line a good way to understand MQ responces prior to programming.

Also if you have a custom UI the physical location of pack 1 may be unique. I have a custom bank UI that has 3 rows with 1 - 7 in the top row.

DOH!!!!

Ever have one of those days/weeks where you just can’t see the forest for the trees? I have been struggling with writing macros because I couldn’t figure out how to look at $(whatever) values. Echo never occurred to me. Thanks FlashG.
