If you change your name you will lose your inventory. Your name has the be EXACTLY as it was before as it is case-sensitive.

That's happened to me before. I immediatley re-logged, and my inventory re-appeared. I still don't know what caused it though.

Hi,

I was playing a multiplayer game with a friend ... but when we saved and reloaded I got spawned with an empty inventory.

I know you need to have the same name ... but I know I didnt change my name ... its Bartimaeus for both Singleplayer and Multiplayer games.

If I check the list of players by using

Code: Select all

/c game.player.print(game.players[1].name)
I will get my friends name for player[1] ... my name for player[2] and my name again for player[3]

The game shows that I am logged in as Bartimaeus and also my LAN name is Bartimaeus ...

is there a way to reclaim my lost inventory?

You can try copying the inventory off your old alter ego.

Code: Select all

/c
local function copy(invtyp,source,target)
  local s = game.players[source].get_inventory(invtyp)
  local t = game.players[target].get_inventory(invtyp)
  for i=1,#s do
    t[i].set_stack(s[i])

    end
  end
copy(defines.inventory.player_main,2,3)
copy(defines.inventory.player_quickbar,2,3)
I has a similar issue once and it resolved itself after leaving and rejoining i think.
