Call lua interfaces on game actions

Post by thislooksfun »

I'm trying to make an inventory that requires keeping track of the items that were placed into it. Specifically, I need to add custom logic to the 'insert' and 'can_insert' methods of the LuaInventory instance, but as I just found out from the IRC, those are not actually called when the base game interacts with an inventory. Is there / would it be possible to add a way to track / override those base operations?a

If this already exists, I apologize, but I was unable to find it.

Thanks,
