This script allows you to replace one item with another while keeping the items position in the inventory. This script is especially useful for when you are replacing a manipulated item such as an empty bucket that has just been filled with water. By default Visionaire Studio would add the new item to the end of the inventory.

This script allows you to cycle through the items in your inventory system.

This script allows you to cycle through the items in your inventory system.
