GetBagSize changes

CodeInject · May 2017

Hello,

today I tried the abandoned addon called Mass Deconstructor.
It didn't work as intended (for other people it works) and I tried to find out why.

There's a problem with the API function GetBagSize.
It gives me a bank size of 130, but I have 260, since I'm a Plus-Member.
It's simple to fix, if there's an API function for membership check.

But I don't know how much addons this could break in the future.
Please fix it.

Subscriber Bank
A new bank bag has been added to the game for ESO Plus subscribers and is named BAG_SUBSCRIBER_BANK. The size of the bag is the same as BAG_BACKPACK. We have also added a new bag function, GetBagUseableSize(bagId), to return how many usable slots a bag has. This will return 0 for the subscriber bank if the player does not have ESO Plus. This new bag also necessitated some changes in the lua inventory objects to support multiple bags appearing in a single inventory view. Look out for functions that once took inventoryType now taking bagId as an additional parameter.

Thank you very much, didn't find that on google.

GetBagUseableSize(BAG_BANK) + GetBagUseableSize(BAG_SUBSCRIBER_BANK)
That should be the correct usage, right?

Yes, that should be correct....

Wouldn't GetBagUseableSize(BAG_SUBSCRIBER_BANK) give you the total number available in a subscribers bank? If that returned 0 (ie not an ESO plus member) then you should try GetBagUseableSize(BAG_BANK).

You probably don't want to add them together because the result could be more than is actually available.

Afaik the BAG_SUBSCRIBER_BANK constant gives you the additional size, not the whole size of your bag, that's the reason for the +BAG_BANK.

That's right. BAG_BANK and BAG_SUBSCRIBER_BANK are two separate bags that the game's UI combines to look like one. GetBagUseableSize(BAG_BANK) will return the size of just your normal bank (max 240) and GetBagUseableSize(BAG_SUBSCRIBER_BANK) will return the same size (since it doubles the bank size) or 0 if you are not an ESO Plus Subscriber.
