Inventory help
I made a drink inventory using a list. The inventory will include water, milk, tea, coffee, and beer in it when I finish it. But right now I've slammed into a mental wall.
In addition to the milk as being a drink, I want it possible for the milk to turn into cheese. Cheese, of course, is not a drink, but a food.
My problem: I don't know how to delete a "milk" item from my list when the item could be ANYWHERE. As far as I know, the list blocks almost all include the need to fill in what number, in this case, the "milk" item is in.
For example, I need something to go in this script:
when [milk into cheese button] clicked if < [Drinks v] contains [milk]> delete (1) of [Drinks v] endI'll need something different than the "delete 1".

Re: Inventory help
what you have is a good start, but I suggest using some kind of method to go through all of the list items and delete them if necessary. For example,
if <[drinks v] contains [milk]> set [# v] to [1] repeat until <not <[drinks v] contains [milk]>> if <(item (#) of [drinks v]) = (milk)> delete (#) of [drinks v] end change [# v] by (1) end endThis will go through all the items in the list until there is no more milk!

Use this.
if <[drinks v] contains [milk]> set [counter v] to (0) repeat until <(item (counter) of [drinks v])=[milk]> change [counter v] by (1) end delete (counter) of [drinks v] else say [There is no milk in the inventory.] for (2) secs endor
if <[drinks v] contains [milk]> set [counter v] to (0) repeat until <not <[drinks v] contains [milk]> > change [counter v] by (1) if <(item (counter) of [drinks v]) = [milk]> delete (counter) of [drinks v] end endI have not tested it, but it should work.

I think I'll try the first one. The second one looks like it will delete all of the milk, which I don't want to do. Either way, thanks!

If you want to delete 1 milk:
set [stop v] to [0] if <[drinks v] contains [milk]> set [# v] to [1] repeat until <(stop) = [1]> if <(item (#) of [drinks v]) = (milk)> delete (#) of [drinks v] set [stop v] to [1] end change [# v] by (1) end end do other stuffif you don't need to continue the script just use stop script instead of setting stop.

Are you just trying to get your post count up? You really didn't need to post this. And that's Splodgey.
