Give and discard inventory items

Transfer an ordinary inventory item to another citizen or remove it permanently from your active character.

Before you begin

  • View the active character's inventory and confirm the item and available quantity.
  • Both participants need active citizen IDs for a transfer. Discard requires only the caller's active ID.
  • The item must be visible, available, and non-permanent.
  • The server's command, channel, and cooldown rules must allow the action.

Giving or discarding is immediate and cannot be undone. Use an ordinary item such as Bottled Water, and do not give an item to yourself.

Give an item

Run:

/item give target:<member> item:<item> count:[integer]
  • target and item are required.
  • count is optional, defaults to 1, has a minimum of 1, and cannot exceed the available quantity.
  • Start entering the item and select one of the autocomplete results from your visible inventory.

CoreRP immediately removes the quantity from your active character and adds it to the target's active character. For example, giving one Bottled Water to Alex Morgan privately confirms You successfully gave 1x item Bottled Water to Alex Morgan.

The recipient must have enough inventory capacity for the item.

When the ER:LC Extension's Only near a person rule is enabled for Give, both active characters must be online and within 80 studs.

Discard an item

Run:

/item discard item:<item> count:[integer]
  • item is required.
  • count is optional, defaults to 1, has a minimum of 1, and cannot exceed the available quantity.

CoreRP immediately removes the quantity. For example, discarding one Bottled Water privately confirms You successfully discarded 1x Bottled Water. The discarded item cannot be recovered by the member.

When the ER:LC Extension's Only in-game rule is enabled for Discard, the active character must be online in the linked private server.

Check the inventory

Run /inventory after either action. For a transfer, the recipient should also run /inventory. Confirm that the sender decreased by the requested quantity, the recipient increased by the same quantity, or the discarded quantity is gone.

Troubleshooting

  • The item is missing from autocomplete — confirm the active character, positive visible quantity, and that the item is not currently confiscated.
  • You do not have enough ... in your inventory. — lower count or refresh /inventory before retrying.
  • Permanent items cannot be given away. or Permanent items cannot be discarded. — choose an ordinary non-permanent item. Do not try to work around the restriction.
  • ... does not have a citizen ID. — ask the recipient to create or select a character.
  • The recipient has insufficient inventory capacity — ask them to free space before trying again.
  • An ER:LC in-game, target, distance, API-key, or offline-server response — satisfy the configured location rule or ask an administrator to review the ER:LC connection.
  • A cooldown response appears. Wait for the displayed cooldown before retrying.
