The Importance of *checkweight

today I just reviewed a paid script (I couldn't show because its paid)
and I saw multiple errors and mistakes on the said script !!

and this is one that MANY ... I mean MANY scripters has made this mistakes !!

prontera,155,185,5 script reward giver 1_F_MARIA,{ mes "XXX event reward giver"; if (!.not_yet_claimed) { mes "There are no winner announce yet"; close; } if (.char_id != getcharid(CHAR_ID_CHAR)) { mes "You aren't the winner."; close; } getitem Poring_Coin, 100; .not_yet_claimed = 0; .char_id = 0; mes "Thanks for participating on XXX event. Please do your best again next time~."; announce "The player "+ strcharinfo(PC_NAME) +" has the claim the reward for XXX event.", bc_all; close; OnInit: bindatcmd "givereward", strnpcinfo(NPC_NAME)+"::Onaaa", 60, 99; end; Onaaa: .@origin = getcharid(CHAR_ID_ACCOUNT); if (!.@atcmd_numparameters) { message .@origin, "You must enter a player name"; end; } .@aid = getcharid(CHAR_ID_ACCOUNT, .@atcmd_parameters$); if (!.@aid) { message .@origin, "The player is not exist or not online"; end; } attachrid .@aid; if (getgmlevel() >= 60) { message .@origin, "You can't give rewards to another GM"; end; } attachrid .@origin; announce "The player "+ rid2name(.@aid) +" has won the XXX event. Please go to npc in prontera to claim the reward.", bc_all; .not_yet_claimed = 1; .char_id = getcharid(CHAR_ID_CHAR, .@atcmd_parameters$); end; }
if the player is currently overweight, or having more items than *getinventorysize(), the item will drop on the floor
if this actually happens, other players around this npc can come in to steal the reward item while the actual winner still desperately trying to store item

to fix this, all you have to do is add *checkweight script command if (!checkweight(Poring_Coin, 100)) { mes "You are currently overweight, please store some items first."; close; } getitem Poring_Coin, 100;
or use *rodex_sendmail script command ... or *mail script command for rathena
