[CGMZ][Alpha] Multiple Inventories for RPG Maker MZ
A downloadable plugin
Hi all, [CGMZ] Multiple Inventories allows you to easily make and manage multiple inventories.
This plugin allows you to create as many inventories as you want, and switch between them at will. The basic flow is to 1) create a new inventory and then 2) switch to that inventory. Your original inventory will retain all its items, but you will now see the new (empty) inventory. As you gain items, they will go to inventory 2. When ready or if needed, you can then 3) combine inventories to combine items from inventory 2 back into inventory 1. Finally, you can remove inventory 2 completely if it will no longer be needed.
You can also check for items across multiple inventories using plugin commands.
Things can also get more complicated, as you can create and switch to an unlimited amount of inventories. Just make sure you keep track of them all!
This plugin includes a scene to view an inactive inventory's items. This scene is view only and is based on the default item scene, so any item scene customizations you have should also be present. There are plans for another more complicated scene which will allow you to swap items between inventories, but this is not yet in the plugin.
Have anything else you'd like to see added to this plugin? Please leave a comment down below or in my Discord #suggestions channel! I appreciate every suggestion I get, and I add them all to my to-do list.

This is posted to Itch.io since some people only use Itch and are not aware my Patreon and all of my beta/alpha plugins exist, or want to have everything in one convenient location (itch.io), or do not want to do a monthly subscription.
Casper Gaming's Beta/Alpha plugins are treated as an "early access" and will eventually be free for everyone once they are fully released, though this process can take months/years. By purchasing in beta/alpha, you are able to provide early feedback/suggestions which are more likely to make it into the final fully released plugin.

can this plugin be used to create looteable chests with their own inventory? what is the limit of inventories that you can create
Hi, there is no limit on inventories you can create, but I am not really sure how a lootable chest with it's own inventory would work currently as the scene to transfer items from one inventory to another is still in progress and not yet in the plugin.
Hi, I'm making a time management game for myself, and I've created a shop where I can buy food.
There is a table with three plates, representing the three meals of the day. I would like that when I click on these, the meal options (suitable for breakfast for example if I click on the first dish) that I have would appear. With this plugin I can make that if I have a certain object (food) is stored directly when I buy it in an inventory that is in an event (the plate on the table)?
Sorry if it sounds super complicated 😅
Hi, I am not entirely sure what you are asking. This plugin allows you to create more than 1 inventory and switch between inventories. It sounds like you could use the Show Choices event command to display different meal options without the need for any plugins, or maybe you could use [CGMZ] Conditional Choices if you want to hide certain options based on items in the player's inventory, but maybe I am not understanding what you want to do.
I suppose this plugin may help if you have so many choices that you are using Select Item, but you would need to event a way to make sure the Breakfast items end up in the Breakfast inventory, this plugin does not automatically put certain items in certain inventories.
Oh I understand 🤔 still it's a very interesting and useful add-on, to have different inventories :)
Thanks for your reply and sorry for taking so long to answer.
